Good game! The idea is quite innovative, but there's too much going on in the screen. Maybe add some stages to slowly teach the player?

Game was very fun, but it has a little bit of a learning curve with so much happening all at once. Fun game, good job!

Entertaning game, but I did run into some issues. When I died I was restored to 2 hearts but couldn't move. Didn't really understand what was going on. Also, you should make the character stand out more.

Nice idea and cool graphics effects too. Unfortunately there was no audio (might be a linux issue), and building is a bit cumbersome (it's probably better with a controller).

Pretty fun guys! Building is a bit weird on the keyboard, but besides that, solid entry!

Hey! This is a nice game, a little challenging in the begining, but once you get it, then it is not so hard to play o/ The way you used the theme in this game was also very good and i liked a lot when i discorvered about the rebuild button, haha good game, good job!

Decent game, I like the graphics, music and it fits the theme really well. A few suggestions for added polish; in-game instructions (i.e. what to pick up, what pickups do), game over screen, and the UI doesn't scale properly, on smaller resolutions the jetpack-ometer was half off the screen and the quit button was completely off. Maybe could change the colour of the build circle to red/grey if you don't have enough energy to build. I imagine it would be really fun to play with a friend, it's sort of like reverse bomberman, you start with space and run out. Good job!

good idea of ​​the game, super fun and challenging. Continue making games =)

I liked the concept! I appreciate the fact that you put so much time into basically giving everything sound effects, really adds to the game. My main issue is that the control scheme is slightly iffy for my liking, being able to build while holding shift would have made the game a lot more comfortable for me. But it's still a fun game with a great difficulty curve.

The game itsself is very fun, and is definitely worth palying multiple rounds. especially after getting used to the controls. But i like that so much is happing at the same time and the soundtrack fits perfectly

For me, the biggest issue is the controls. It is very difficult to build with a keyboard. Sometimes the arrow keys do not react, sometimes they react twice (?). Otherwise, I liked the graphics and effects. The sound was nice too. Good job.
