Makes it a bit easier to download :slight_smile: \n\nAnyways, great game! Love the art style and music. I understand what you were doing with the crew members, but it still kinda just felt like the same character losing lives. Perhaps having each crew member dressed in something slightly different would have given a better effect of different crew members being present.\n\nAlso, game ends suddenly if you win or lose.

Very stylish look and feel to the game. I think the concept and brevity of the game work really well together, and had an element of replayabiltiy to it too. Really smart choices. The graphics were gorgeous, even the text font and style fitted perfectly. I think everything I want to say has probably been said regarding feedback, but I'll give it anyways. It tTook me a moment to realise how the theme tied in, realising that the \"Lives\" system was actually meant to represent different cruel members. It would definitely be cute if you were actually a captain in the rocket, and all the crew were standing outside waiting one by one to become the one who has to go out and get the gems.\n\nMy biggest criticism beside that is probably that the controls felt a little floaty. I think perhaps the gravity needed to be upped, at least. It felt sometimes like there was an input lag, or some such. It didn't feel as tight  and responsive as I'd have liked.\n\nIt also would have been great if there was a different screen for the victory condition! It felt a little sad getting the same game over for winning as my losing, but this is the LD, you can't make everything, sacrifices must be made :)\n\nOverall, it had a really simple, smart concept which was compelling and executed fairly well.

I liked the dialog that was integrated into the game\/tiles too. The level design was nice, with the exception of the parts where there was a spike on a gem or you had to hit a spike to get the gem. I Also liked how you go back to the spawn point but the timer still goes from where it was before instead of resetting when you lose one of your lives, so you've gotta quickly run back to where you were before, or go grab the gems near spawn that you may have missed before dying.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"miziziziz","author_uid":"1005749","time":"2018-12-28T05:53:00Z","epoch":1545976380,"modified":1545976380,"text":"good snappy movement, would be nice if you could control jump height by holding jump button but otherwise pretty enjoyable to play","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"easy82","author_uid":"1034415","time":"2018-12-28T20:06:41Z","epoch":1546027601,"modified":1546027601,"text":"Hey @exilegl and @miziziziz thanks for the nice words! :) I plan to add jump height and other small features.
