This is a pretty good game. The controls are fluid, although regular jumping seems kinda superfluous. The jet-pack handles well, though I didn't get very far since you go back to the beginning of the game whenever you die. Maybe having checkpoints and limited lives would help. I do think that the audio and visuals are nice. I particularly like the way that some platforms light up when you land on them; it's very satisfying. Apparently this is a redux of a previous Ludum Dare game, which shows because it doesn't seem to have much at all to do with this Ludum Dare's theme. For what it is, I enjoyed my time with this game.

I Agree with the above commentor, the game badly needs checkpoints upon death. The long iteration times added a great deal of frustration to the gameplay. The controls were decent, and it looks like you have some good ideas graphically that I would love to see a little more polish on.
