When launching pull down toward one of bottom left or right corners of the screen. Invest in radar first after that work on e-rocket and fuel tanks. The magnet helps but it probably won't help you for the hard achievement.

I feel like the whole "fire the hedgehog at the ground first so it bounces and gains some speed" breaks the laws of thermodynamics.

I don't understand it. I'm not able to move the guy with the arrow keys and the launcher and ground levels confuse me. Is this game just broken for me? It's got such a high score for a game which seems to have so many issues if not.

Trick to getting Hard Achievement: Put 2 in height, 1 in fuel. Reset until you get a lucky run, (you want to get purple coins and a good amount of launch time/height).
Put 2 in radar, 3-4 in fuel sucker, rest in fuel tank, remaining into height.
Pull down to bottom of screen for max height launch (even though you go down and bounce, you get more height from pulling down)
You can get a good day 1 run and finish on day 2 easily.

after a certain point, all you have to do is keep using a rocket in one direction and it'l keep collecting coins, bouncing you higher, and extending the time so you can get the rest of the upgrades that you skipped all in one go

I get that this game was made about 8 years ago, but what the hell were these guys smoking to think this could be any good? I can't even remember playing anything this bad on Newgrounds...

The trick with this game is to keep aloft hitting the platforms. The longer you bounce around the more money you get. The radar shows you the platforms, and if you can afford a couple of e-rockets after day 2 you can make it to mars easy.

You shoot the hedgehog through a hole through the Earth from England to Australia. That's why you shoot at the ground and then flip (at the center of the Earth)

Launch your hedgehog (pull it to the bottom part of the screen) hope you get about $1000 on your first launch, buy the level 2 radar and the level 1 fuel sucker, spend the remaining money on fuel tank, on 2nd day it will be much easier to get money, just hit as many platforms as you can and you should be able to get about $9000, buy the last level of fuel sucker and radar, spend the remaining money on the fuel tank then the rockets, then the launcher, on the 3rd day as long as you don't run out of platforms it should be easy, you should never run out of fuel, if you can't see any platform just go full thrust left and you should hit one pretty soon getting you back on track, if you have to choose platforms colors always choose: purple, then yellow, then green, last blue. Got the hard badge on about 15th try.

I've done this game before and gotten both badges, but I decided to try playing again when I saw it for BotD and no matter what I do the hedgehog gets launched into the ground. I don't remember this being the case before

Game's not bad, but dang that 3-days goal is too much RNG. Start off with level 1 in fuels and rockets, make sure you get enough money for radar and more fuel (or e-rocket if you can afford it) and try to hit the moon on day 2. If you does that your should be good to go hitting mars on day 3 - radar, e-rockets and fuel are kings.

To get the badge, use your rockets (left/right) to hit as many platforms as you can. I upgraded the height of the sling first (always pull down to release) and then everything else. I used the boosters as well, but I think I only got them to level 2. I reached mars in 17 days.

Thank you Ich0815, tested your method and just managed it on day 2.
The amount of RNG you need for this though is insane, had to restart at least 15 times before I got anywhere near close the required cash.
Just to help reinforce the method: Pray to the RNG Gods to get 5k+ ---> Buy AT LEAST Radar 3 and Fuel sucker 3 (E-rocket and any extra fuel if you can also afford, I found that helped a lot in my attempt) ----> Good Luck required.

Worst launch game I've ever played, thinking of skipping this badge. Like, really? 20 days? it's not that hard but dude, this game sucks, there's no control whatsoever, it's confusing at first cz u don't know where u supposed to launch that freaking thingo -.- HATE IT
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
if you want the hard badge you ll need at least 5k the first day. radar 3 and fuel sucker 3 means limitless fuel. so with both bought after the first day i could go mars in 2 days.

Also btw i have a suggestion, Make 2 separate reset buttons pls. Reset whole game and Reset run. Would be helpful much. btw best worst game i played 1/5 star

In 9 / 10 cases there are no platforms at all after launching, so that you fall down like a stone (even with steering a bit) and day over. No money earned. Rinse and repeat. Great game...
