The lucky dice are a complete waste. It take 11 perfect to even make your money back at for level 2 all the way up to 70 perfect launches at level 4

about the wings/rocket thing, it happened to me when I accidentally hit both buttons at once. might have been some kind of a deliberate stall feature.

hmm i also feel like the upgrades aren't having big impacts. and since they don't have a big impact, the amount of gold collected is consequently insignificant as well especially since they stay at a low value. i think the most significant difference between this launch game and others is that there is no upgrading random encounters. this would explain why the upgrades do not have significant impacts, because overall these controlled actions pale in the task of maintaining speed compared to random encounters which remain consistently unreliable

if you rocket just as soon as you hit the ground you automatically stop dead in your tracks and throw down a flag :( i was going fast too

This game has interesting concepts, in particular i like the bladder as an ability, but ultimately i dislike the tuning, upgrading the rocket and glidey wings feel very weak unless you get extremely lucky with the fuel pick ups.
With a bit better tuning, perhaps more interesting upgrades and this game could be extremely good.

interesting error. I seemed to be picking up coins with my magnet while I slammed into a spike, and now I keep picking up an endless amount of coins, lol

You might want to look into the whole "Can't buy something when you have exactly that amount of coins" thing, because it's irritating as hell.

This game is full of bugs, I have reported all I have found so far. Surprised this game got through QA with these problems... No coins, bladder sometimes doesn't work, holding rocket straight after you set the power causes you to NOT MOVE.
1/5 so far, will be a 3/5 when these issues are fixed.

The rocket seems to have a few people confused. Its not meant for acceleration forward. Its a height boost. The longer you hold it down, the farther it propels you upward, but it wont do anything while holding it, only when you release. Think of it as "charging up". I find its best used in short bursts to move up for fuel/coins, then wings to glide forward.

Actually, unlike many others here, i do find it enjoyable and alittle challenging. The upgrades do seem alittle underpowered for the cost, but overall it works. The coins are rare, but with a magnet and holding a medium altitude you get quit a few.

It's hard to believe this game comes from the same team which made the excelent "Cursed Treasure". I really like launching games, even if they've done for millions times and such. But this game fails at very basic levels, it's a shame. I can play for MANY days without getting a single coin. Upgrades, as others have said, make little impact. And so on....

In sore need of some balancing, which is a shame since I do like the art style a lot. Also, at least for me personally, a large part of the draw of launch games comes in the sense of progressing and getting stronger. The upgrades not only seem to be rather limited in impact (e.g. the chance upgrade always needs ~20 perfect launches to refund itself, how many launches do you expect people to have?) and have no visual change. Level 5 armour looks the same as level 1 armour, etc. Only the launchers differ a bit, but even there only in three levels.

Decent launch game, needs to have the upgrades be more powerful, as of now it's too luck-based. That and has a lot of bugs on losing momentum out of nowhere. And to franciscoKON: Are you so uncool as to never have heard of an afro pick?

Ignore all this rubbish and let's get to the real deal ppl - where does he store those costumes?????
Would be nice if the power-ups were also pulled a bit and if you went further off a barrel if on fire, but a nice game! 3/5

I just want to say that I'm a huge fan of launch games. Most of them will get an automatic full play through for me and likely get a 4/5, especially because they're so few and far between. This one will get a 3/5 though, because it's just so random. The upgrades don't really seem to make much of a difference. I traveled 1631 feet/meters (whatever) about ten launches ago. Now that I've upgraded numerous times, I'm somehow not even coming close to that number. It seems like a better risk to hit the barrels and whatnot on the ground to go further than it is to actually try and stay in the air, which makes a "launch" game, slightly pointless... Still, it's a launch game, so you're going to get your 3/5. LoL. Update it a bit, maybe make the upgrades a bit more effective, and you've got a game I would recommend to friends. Good luck on any future projects.

am i stupid, or there is no auto-save? cause i played for about 75% of the game, i've restarted my pc and i see no savegame :|

Do I get it correctly that it won't save my game state? I came back after quite a while spent on upgrading, and it made me start anew today... no way... :-(
