Can't play it :-(
Got to 263m - using the boosters always both at the same time.
The dash/speedup mechanic is great and makes you feel in control!
The only thing I would change is that sometimes it was challenging to see the score I made given that you're using the same key for thrusters as the key to start the game. Very polished otherwise, great job!

With both the boosters active seems I get less obstacles, is it intentional?
Fantastic work! :heart:
I'd say it was a little more RNG-dependent than I'd like. Some runs felt cursed to fail, with really sharp turns required. Others I barely ever had to move. Figuring out a way to get rid of the extreme hard and easy ends of the random difficulty spectrum would be a solid improvement.
Nice job!
