Fun, efficient concept, pretty polished and above all... very hard ! We never came close even a bit to the par times :) But you succeeded to push to retry and improve times. Also the\n static background is pretty confusing sometimes, some parallax would have made the challenge less harsh for us. That's impressive for a first approach of Unity, bravo !","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Zelos","author_uid":"1011708","time":"2017-05-01T22:03:05Z","epoch":1493676185,"modified":1493676185,"text":"Hey there, I'm the guy from Reddit who you just thanked for the advice on the canvas :smile:.  \n  \nI played your game again and I stil really like it. The graphics are probably the best part for me since the gameplay is a bit fiddly. I can never manage to hit the landing area on my first try and always fly around for a few seconds until I can.  \n  \nIt looks really polished overall and the only negative thing I have to say is that I wish I had some more control over the ship. Like slow down more effectively or something like that.  \n  \nOtherwise - really good work!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"jasperarmstrong","author_uid":"1006309","time":"2017-05-01T22:51:35Z","epoch":1493679095,"modified":1493679100,"text":"This game is really cool! I like the idea and it looks really good. It is kind of hard to see how fast you're going with the background being static. Also, I think maybe the ship should explode or something if you slam into a planet really fast, it seems kind of weird that it just stops you and lets you continue on your way.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Yirggzmb","author_uid":"1003095","time":"2017-05-02T00:28:09Z","epoch":1493684889,"modified":1493684889,"text":"Lots of fun!

I love the adorable graphics (and the penguin). The background music is pretty fitting and it makes the game feels more intense. The gameplay is simple but fun. However, the ship is really hard to control (too float-y and too fast). It makes the game really hard. I managed to beat the first level by luck. However, I got stuck at the second level because I overshoot myself once and never manage to get back to the planet (because my rocket is way too fast). I just ended up keep on over shooting and never managed to even see the planet....\n\nOverall, well done! It is a solid game just need some tweaking to the mechanics.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Headmade","author_uid":"1000381","time":"2017-05-12T15:11:05Z","epoch":1494601865,"modified":1494601865,"text":"Nice graphics and audio, make this a very polished entry. Good job.\n\nIt was weird that all those huge celestial bodies had no gravitational pull. It seems only the platforms pull the ship in.\n\nThe ship was relatively hard to manoeuvre, with only one direction of thrust. I overshot the landing platforms all the time. At the end I got stuck between two trees with no way of getting free.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Ajayajayaj","author_uid":"1000026","time":"2017-05-12T19:54:12Z","epoch":1494618852,"modified":1494618861,"text":"Really nice graphics.

I especially liked the amiable graphics and your choice of music. What stood out was your solid handling of the gravity between the different planets.\n\nIt may have been on purpose to make the game more relaxing, but since you cannot crash, the game was lacking a bit of a challenge for me. I noticed that you don't need to land upright but can just set down your rocket any way you like.\n\nIt was a fun experience.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Snowdrama","author_uid":"1006760","time":"2017-05-14T00:52:45Z","epoch":1494723165,"modified":1494723165,"text":"I had a lot of fun with this game, the game had just enough challenge to keep me going without being brutally difficult.

I love the super cool retro illustration styled graphics, music fits the mood perfectly.
