Professor: Perfect day to launch a rocket into space! With all the thunderclouds, static airplanes, weather balloons, and an armada of flying UFO's everywhere, nothing can go wrong!

This would be much better if the camera on the rocket zoomed out the faster you were moving, in order to give you time to dodge incoming objects or aim for power ups. Also, it seems like most accelerators are merely traps, flinging you into an ill placed object without any means of dodging.

Sadly, playing via suggested by Kongregate SuperNova Player, you can't get achievements. At the very least I didn't get any.

One problem I have with the game: "Oh noes, I'm gonna crash, slow down!" actually makes me take MORE damage (due to hitting the same object over and over rather than knocking it out of the way. grinding against something does a lot less damage than slamming full on into a wall... of course, don't tell that to the titanic.)

"This is ground control to propeller plane. This is a restricted airspace. You are going to have to exit the area promptly." "Nope. Sorry. Can't do that." "Okay."

Love it, but I wish the score screen showed up after I crashed and burned... Because right now it's in the way of watching my Spaceship fall into a million pieces with everything falling ontop of it

What I want to know is; who keeps leaving money lying around in the air. How do you even do that? Honestly, you'd think people would be more careful with anti-gravity money.

Who's the weirdo that scatters fuel and money everywhere in the sky? And how do they achieve such a thing? Not that I'm complaining tho.

"Quantum 66, air tower, is airspace clear for flight"
"Air tower, negative Quantum 66 there is a rocket taking off right under you"
"Quantum 66, I don't care. I'm flyin' anyway! I'm not gonna hit him, i'll be fine.

Anyone else accidentally ram an accelerator immediately after launch, turning it upside-down, then fly through it to ram the Earth at mach-6? I feel like Filbert from Rocko's Modern Life...

Scientist - "Make sure to launch the rocket when the skiies are cluttered with planes, hot air balloons, satillites, and UFOs. Also make sure there is plenty of dark clouds so lightning can kill the engines and plenty of wind especially in space so the rocket can fly into stuff." Pilot - "That sounds dangerous and will slow us down from getting into space trying to dodge objects..." Scientist - "Don't worry about that, theres plenty of fuel cans suspended in midair as well as money and some strange upward thrust engine." Pilot - "Okay, but what if something does goes wrong, is there a parachute?" Scientist - ".........sure."

Tips for the hard badge:
1.Once you can reach 250,000 ft. normally, try to avoid EVERYTHING that can damage your hull. This includes boosters but discludes dark clouds
2.Buy the biggest fuel tank and best wings early and once you have, make your thruster the 2nd or 3rd best (to change equipment type click on the desired equipment)
3.I found that towards the end whenever I didn't make the hard badge I wanted to self suicide: so once you feel that way equip the smallest hull. It helps you with dodging
4.Use your thruster only to dodge things. Don't use it to get money or any of the other items Good luck!

"Sir? We've been having trouble getting more ships into orbit after our one successful launch... it seems that as soon as the pilots hit any obstacle they shut off the engines and crash. No, sir, they only had minor damage. Yes, they have the new armoured hull available, but they seem to be requesting the very first prototype instead... they say they like its 'smaller profile'."

You know, having obstacles directly on top of accelerator gates -- or 2 or 3 accelerator gates piled on top of each other like a practical joke -- is the sort of thing that starts to hurt a girl's feelings after a while.
More generous repair powerups and fuel cells would be helpful considering almost everything in the sky causes immense damage to even the strongest hull. This includes hard looks from all the pilots who insist on performing the world's most static airshow over my launchpad for some unfathomable reason.

Tips: 1. Forget about collecting money, just go after the midair boosters and gas cans; you make far more money by gaining altitude. 2. Spend early money on the fuel efficiency and thrust increasing upgrades, not the ship parts. Save up and don't buy every single ship part available (you don't have to buy them in order fyi). 3. For your rocket thrusters, don't hold the button down- this uses up its juice too quickly and it sputters. Instead, try tap-a-tap-a and you'll get a continuous speed boost.. just be careful because this makes control of the rocket harder. Good luck!

for the hard badge: avoid all the accelerators if possible, especially in "space" cause there are so many satellites and ufo's, dont use your boosters- you should pick up more than enough fuel cans to make it without them- remember: slow and steady wins for this badge

A scientist was today sent to jail for life for the murder of 115 pilots over a course of 35 days. When asked to comment, he said that 'they were hovering in the way'.

This scientist Must be a genius if he can crash into a plane a hundred thousand feet into the air, and still make money.

Ground Control: "OK, we're ready to launch." Pilot: "Wait! There's something wrong. My visibility's too low. I can't see more than a few hundred feet in front of me. At the speeds I'll be going, I might collide with something." Ground Control: "Too bad. We're launching you anyway."

That must be one weak rocket... since it can't even damage WEATHER BALLOONS when it is falling without breaking into little shards
