However what are the controls like ? Two buttons on screen ? No tilt is there ? HEiRAVON Well-Known Member Dec 3, 2015 214 24 18 #4 HEiRAVON, May 2, 2019 Yesssssss! So loving this! So much fun. Sure hope this gets more missions and continues on with future versions. Really digging the style. Motherships, Landers, Missions, actual people to transport, great music, artful landscapes, etc. Good good stuff! What a treat! psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,769 553 113 England #5 psj3809, May 2, 2019 Can you talk about the controls. How they work etc ? metalcasket Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze May 24, 2010 11,064 1,340 113 Deepest Circle, Hel #6 metalcasket, May 2, 2019 It’s all tilt. Kidding. Basically thrusters are tied to left and right controls, and pressing both buttons at the same time fires you upwards/straight/whatever. There’s no tilt anywhere. Game’s super deep and I was pleasantly surprised by a narrative. Definitely recommended.

Still haven’t gotten past the first real mission! Lol TSD Member May 5, 2019 8 8 3 Male #10 TSD, May 7, 2019 I set out to make this game something that I would enjoy, and its difficulty came from me becoming very good at it (spend days/weeks testing levels..). In hindsight I think for commercial purposes I should of made it easier. Oh well. Gwarmaxx Well-Known Member Feb 2, 2010 4,447 376 83 NCC 1701 #11 Gwarmaxx, May 7, 2019 i'm loving it as it is now, don't change anything please, good games must be challenging and hard, otherwise they end up immediately and fall into oblivion.

BTW there will be 6 more levels added at some stage, currently Im working on something else but I will come back to this game after. Thanks for playing! HEiRAVON and Gwarmaxx like this. TheVimFuego Well-Known Member Dec 7, 2014 255 6 18 #13 TheVimFuego, May 7, 2019 No! Games are too easy these days, this is old school, I like it. Takes me back to the days playing Thrust. More levels later? Great!

One criticism for me is that I really wish the mid level checkpoints operated as save points - I realised early on that if you close the game you go back to the start rather than your last checkpoint, and some of the levels take a long time to complete and I’d really like the option to save and restart at a checkpoint if I quit. As was pointed out above it takes me back to the mighty days of playing Thrust on my dads old BBC model B which is a very good thing indeed. Anotherkellydown, raravan and Gwarmaxx like this. Gwarmaxx Well-Known Member Feb 2, 2010 4,447 376 83 NCC 1701 #18 Gwarmaxx, May 11, 2019 Thrust!!! what a game... played it for hours on my C64 back in the '86. senkal New Member Jun 4, 2018 1 1 1 Male Co-Founder at Particles || Software developer London http://particlesinteractive.com #19 senkal, May 12, 2019 Really good. Like some hidden games like this one, you can see the effort put into balancing it. Looks like you need to prepare some time to get good at it. Anotherkellydown likes this.

Totally agree on the checkpoints saving your game. I almost gave up on this, but after putting more time in finally finished the Europa missions. Didn’t get any stars on 4-6 but it still feels like an accomplishment. The ambient soundtrack is spot-on perfect for this game. I went from being disappointed to loving LRM. orangecan likes this.
