The controls in the tutorial seem to be inaccurate - it says WASD but WS does nothing and space jumps. The missiles are a little finicky as well, but like I say, with a bit more tweaking this would be a neat little game :)"},{"author_name":"xrm0","author_uid":"25867","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 12:12pm","epoch":1377605220,"text":"You should definitely continue this game."},{"author_name":"sev_inf","author_uid":"13588","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 8:05pm","epoch":1377633600,"text":"Where else I can ride a missle?! :) I really enjoyed this game, it's really fun! Graphics and sounds are well too. There are some problems with controls, I think, and most of them connected with missle riding. But if you'll polish it a little you'll make a great funny game. So I'm looking forward for a post-jam version from you! :))"},{"author_name":"fgielow","author_uid":"26275","time":"Aug 29, 2013 @ 5:15am","epoch":1377753000,"text":"haha prettu fun to ride a missile right into some helicopters, would give a good casual game with some power ups and more complex stages!"},{"author_name":"Zap","author_uid":"27818","time":"Aug 29, 2013 @ 5:27am","epoch":1377753720,"text":"Missile riding is confusing, so I didn't get very far.

I'd love to see this as a full game, with slightly tighter controls. I love the Everything Is Cubes aesthetic too; the transparent rotating cubes effect is surprisingly pretty when used well! Probably one of my favorite games of the jam."},{"author_name":"Angrycrow","author_uid":"5288","time":"Aug 29, 2013 @ 5:39am","epoch":1377754440,"text":"I like it a lot! The missle riding is particulary enjoyable. I would also love to play a polished version of the game. But I went ahead and added you to my best of LD27 list anyway because I love the idea and had a good time."},{"author_name":"Jayjay","author_uid":"5475","time":"Aug 30, 2013 @ 3:02am","epoch":1377831420,"text":"Fun!

Honestly though, I feel like the 10 second limit really ruins the gameplay, especially since the controls feel so erratic."},{"author_name":"Tater_hater","author_uid":"21618","time":"Aug 31, 2013 @ 3:48pm","epoch":1377963780,"text":"wouldnt load.."},{"author_name":"GigaBass","author_uid":"27097","time":"Aug 31, 2013 @ 11:54pm","epoch":1377992940,"text":"THIS!\r<br\/>ONE OF THE FEW GAMES THAT MADE ME SMILE AND TRULY HAVE FUN!\r<br\/>But it was abit short!

Player movement was way too 'floaty' and getting stuck on walls was a bit annoying imo, but other  than that it's great :) Fun blasting myself around with rockets!"},{"author_name":"shohs","author_uid":"20774","time":"Sep 1, 2013 @ 7:15am","epoch":1378019400,"text":"Pretty good job.  I liked the concept and I thought the art was pretty good too.  To me, the gravity seemed a bit weak.  Also, after you die I thought that it took too long to respawn; maybe add an option that immediately respawns you?  Like some others said, if you tighten up the controls this could be really good."},{"author_name":"Metatheos","author_uid":"5336","time":"Sep 9, 2013 @ 10:05am","epoch":1378720800,"text":"I'd really like to play a further developed version of the game that isn't bound to the requirements of the theme.  The mix of firing missiles and also being able to attach to one for mobility shows so much potential.  I think the game should be faster overall though.  I'd also like to see the missile-physics being more arcade-style for the projectile-version.  And finally I think the missile riding should be controlled by mouse, not switch to WSAD after launch."},{"author_name":"fferro234","author_uid":"26574","time":"Sep 16, 2013 @ 4:13am","epoch":1379304480,"text":"Woo I got past the tutorial! I really like the concept. It is just very hard. I think the theme hurts the game cause I just want to go around blowing crap up and flying on missile but can't. I think it would work better if destroying things got you points and how long or quick it takes you to get to the end of the level also gave you points or something."},{"author_name":"Christina Nordlander","author_uid":"20504","time":"Sep 16, 2013 @ 10:19pm","epoch":1379369640,"text":"A bit too difficult for me, but this is an all over great entry.
