It was a little bit like flying the airplane using only the gauges and other controls - as the sky\/landscape behind doesn't allow to quickly recognize how fast you're going - would love to see background somehow communicate the speed and direction that you're going!\n\nThanks to the sounds it was clear to me when I picked up a power up - some visual feedback would also be good - like some particles or the screen flashing!\n\nCongrats on completing your first LD! For me, each LD event teaches me a lot about game making, but also a lot about organizing myself to work in the most efficient way - and decide what is most important etc. Keep it up, hoping to see your future LD games!\n\n:v:\n\n","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"},{"id":829017,"author_name":"LDJam user 264629","author_uid":"264629","epoch":1649899497,"text":"This is a definitely pretty cool game for your first entry. There are a few small problems however namely how it can sometimes be kind of hard to tell if you are going left, right, up, or down. The only times I could tell was when there were balloons in the area which wasn't always so you could probably consider adding some parallax objects in the background into any similar future entry (for this one the clouds would do). \n\nAlso, on my first run it didn't immediately click for me that I could touch and should touch the rockets since in my mind they were obstacles. I'm not sure how you would go about fixing that. I understand you did write down that you could collect the rockets in your instructions but I like to first play the games without reading any instructions so I can provide better insight. It helps me notice things that I might not otherwise notice and can hopefully help you or any other.\n\nStill apart from these minor issues, well done. I'm sure with this first ludum dare under your belt, any of your future ludum dare entries will be at least 10x better.
