I wonder how much would cost to buy a parachute for the rocket? I mean, rebuilding it after every flight GOT to cost some dimes. >:D

It reeeeeeaaally sucks that you can't dodge anything coming out the gate with the best engines. Might as well be an impossible badge.

The only thing I didn't particularly care for was going through an acceleration gate only to be propelled full speed into a UFO or a plane or some other obstacle. If they were appropriately called "suicide gates," I wouldn't have tried to use them as often as I did.

I bumped into balloon and the rocket blowed up to pieces and the balloon is still the same.why do games have to be so realistic...

To optimise your strategy for the hard badge, avoid all gates at the start because they cause you to crash into other stuff you can't see. Later in the game, avoid any gates unless you are 100% that you will not crash. Also, go slow by constantly stopping your engine so you decelerate, giving you more time to avoid objects. If you are heading head on into something, then immediately stop your engine and slowly maneuver elsewhere. Also, collect any fuels in your path but do not take risks and do not sacrifise fuels for any other powerups (they are useless for the badge). Note that using this strategy worked for me, and I had everything upgraded but was using a level 1 hull. To summarise, just collect fuels, avoid gates and go slowly. It will be more than enough to get you to 250000 without taking any damage. NOTE: do not use fully upgraded hull it will cause you to take damage at the start before you takeoff.

Being a fan of TDs I shouldn't bahs a game for using a tried formula but I'm going to be harsh with this one. It would be a good game if it was released prior to hedgehog launch and similar titles, as it is it doesn't have many redeeming qualities. No new features or twists to the genre. Graphics and sound are decent but nothing overly interesting. Even at highest manoeuvrability upgrades the rocket feels clumsy and the overall pace of the game is slow. It doesn't even have the "lol factor" of the hedgehog launch. Again, it would be a great game if it was released as one of the first in the genre, right now it's merely decent.

I like how the camera zooms out so you can see more of your surroundings, but you're not doing it right. It should zoom out the faster the rocket goes, not based on how high the rocket is. The idea is that, with greater speed, you need to be able to see more of your surroundings. Plus, a natural result of linking the camera zoom to speed is that using the boosters makes you feel like you're accelerating.

Badly designed game. In the first part of the game the view area is smaller so if you use acceleration gates there is a 99% chance you'll either hit it or smash into something else. Then also some things just pop out of nowhere and there is no radar so it's mostly luck based.

Holy crap I just got an achievement for doing the noob rocket dance o.0 Must be like a "you lasted 3 seconds wtf heres 5000 dolla!"

Ho ho. Here's a bug: if you take more than 100 days (thank you, thank you very much /bows) to reach the moon , it only displays the first two digits when you take off.

Who the hell decided to make flying money? Seriously. It's a hassle to find, it might fly off with your wallet, and a big wad of it is only worth ten bucks. we should ask the government to please stop printing flying money because it's really getting on our nerves.

Start zoomed out PL0X?! Seriously when youre upgraded decently, your initial speed is fast enough to ruin your ship within the first 20k feet if your not lucky enough to have a clear airway.
