#12Lots of fun. Works surprisingly well on mobile too.
The Astro’s Playroom tech demo for the PS5 has a level like this where the DualSense triggers are used for the thrusters. The force feedback is incredible and really gives you an edge in feathering the thrust. It’s also a lot easier!

#13Even if you use procedurally generated levels, first few should be hand picked to be easy.

#14Most of the challenge comes from bad controls.

#15Just a small suggestion, make the initial few levels easy!

I hadn't planned on that use case, but check back in a few days where I might share the source code. Perhaps you or someone can build around it.

#18Holy shit this game is hard. First few levels, maybe a bit of extra health?

Thanks! I intended for folks to start with the tutorial. They are easier than any of the free play levels but still challenging until you get used to the dynamics.

#20Absolutely unplayable. I spent 5 minutes on the "tutorial" and can't do anything but crash after 2 or 3 seconds. Looks like trolling, not a game :)
