Under rating threshold (show) have the money round, no point in having 579.99999 dollars, the game play is a little stiff, perhaps follow the crowd and have the dwarf animated each time he bounces, and then you have a pretty good game, upgrades very comprehensive

Under rating threshold (show) Also, don't grade players F for the first 3-4 attempts, it makes people give up.

Under rating threshold (show) Scale of everything is wrong. Screen only goes up to 2000 ft but you regularly fly to 5000+. Screen is too small relative to your size and movement speed, there's no time to steer. Upgrades cost too much, unless you use the gold collector, meaning the other options in the shop are pointless. Upgrades scale way too much, so you simply upgrade everything to level 2, then everything to level 3, and so on -- no strategy of what to upgrade. And if the game needs instructions, put them in the game, most people don't bother reading the text instructions. Since your mom got on your account, I'm guessing this is an early attempt at gaming, so good job on your first one. Keep going and keep reading comments and you'll make some good stuff.

Under rating threshold (show) Why are there stationary X-wing fighter in a game about bilbo? And who is that man masquearading as bilbo really? And why is he spending most of the first flight above the screen? 2 minutes 30 seconds, 44000 feet flight at 11000 feet high for an F on the first flight? And the text is way too small. This was simply not fun to watch (and I read comment for most of the flight anyway.)

Under rating threshold (show) maybe i should point a few things out.... 1. To get an "A" rank you need to get 10Mil feet distance, it will automatically go to the ending. 2. I was too lazy to make sure some objects stay on the ground(it looked too choppy) 3. I will add sounds for the obstacles, i had my friend make them but I guess i forgot to add them 4. the comment about reading the instructions was posted by my mother... sorry 5. I will add a beastiary, i had never thought of that. 6. I also like easterwave's comments about midflight upgrades to fuel. i might add it. Thank you for playing.

Under rating threshold (show) Players - if you take the time and really read the instructions before you start, it's a lot easier. I like it and plan on playing it a lot more. Great job on the sound and graphics. (5/5)

Under rating threshold (show) Another shoot-the-xxxxx game. I played that through day 10 but it is not really inviting me to continue. Same obstacles, slow slow upgrades... hm. I would not play this again, unless you include bonus upgrades that refuel the rocket etc. etc.

Under rating threshold (show) Objects that obviously should be on the ground are in the sky. Bilbo routinely goes far above the screen range, even on the first few flights. None of the objects have an animation or sound when hit. This would make it more visually appealing. I'd take out the "Inventory" page. Or put something useful in it. You need a way to get back to the main menu without refreshing the page. Achievements would be good. This has a lot of potential but also needs a lot of work.

Under rating threshold (show) Upon first glance it is good, perhaps a larger area could be shown. A larger view would help for strategic movements for bounces. I like the upgrade system. I would appreciate a bestiary or information on the obstacles I am bouncing on and maybe even the effects of some. For the money system, round the decimals. Be realistic with obstacles as a swamp generally does not float in air. The portal could do more than just boost, maybe teleport higher and father a bit. I would like to see some sort of achievements page, this gives players a reason to spend time on your well deserved game. Finally, I am debating on if the upgrade system is too difficult to satisfy, it takes a lot of time to earn money and it takes even more money to purchase one or two upgrades. Enjoying the Statistics page :)

Under rating threshold (show) I´m a great fan of launch games and this one, though it might need some improvements when it comes to sound and graphics, is good and might be a winner... for now 3/5

Under rating threshold (show) I dislike the menu system every thing is written really small makes me not want to bother reading the info about the items that I might buy in the shop. I would also like to be able to get rid of the timer in the corner, I really don't want to know how much of my life I have wasted.

Under rating threshold (show) Please feel free to comment, but please be constructive. I know you may think this game is awful, but please elaborate on the reason you think it is. Here is an example of what to do: "I don't like Hobbit Launch because of XYZ" Here is an example of what not to do: "This game sucks."
