Probably the most visually appealing launch game I've ever played, but also probably the least fun. You just don't have enough control over the outcome, and once you've used up all your abilities, there's no reason to pay attention any more. They should be on a timer, or there should be something to run into that refreshes them, like the ammo for the guns.
I love it! This is the best out of a number of rocket-launching games that I've played. Lots of control, between the boosts and the ability to turn off the engine. The art style and intro are endearing, pulled me right in. It all fits together very well.
I've got a few minor complaints, however. Waiting for the flight result page to tally up eventually gets tiresome. Running into things tends to result in you just grinding your hull away, rather than knocking and the object away from each other.
The Earth Defender badge seems like it incentivizes you to do contradictory things. By the time you see UFOs, you're probably pretty good at dodging things, so you're unlikely to hit 20 of them unless you try. Hitting them is generally bad, so you want to avoid doing so... but if you do it 20 times, then it will start rewarding you... Except you'll still take damage and lose speed. Basically, it doesn't seem like a good strategy.
