Hands down my least favorite game in this genre. There's almost no room for skill in the game. You often boost, just to run into an obstacle just barely out of view, wasting the boost, with no upgrade to reduce the number of obstacles. The only way to avoid obstacles is to use up another boost, so quick reflexes don't really help. The first few hull and helmet upgrades are worthless. The only way to earn money is to collect it physically (i.e., there's no money bonus for achieving intermediate heights, earning medals, or completing challenges), so there's no benefit in going high until you can go high enough to win, other than the fact you'll pass up more money you can collect.

You can't steer the ship other than using boosts, so when you run out of boosts, you can't do anything other than wait forever to land, unless you run into a spare gas can, and the amount of time you have to wait adds up with each run, especially as you start to go higher. Even if you hit a gas can on the way down, there's not much you can do with it unless it was near your apex. Perhaps having a parachute or fixed wings with the ability to steer would make the plummet less useless, but that might slow down that portion so much that it would be more annoying, I don't know. The music quickly got on my nerves. At least the artwork was kinda neat, but it was nothing special.
