Nice, this has a very KSP feeling to it. Though the building is a little unintuitive: at first I had no idea why my rocket wasn't launching.

Very nice. Took me a little while to work out that I had to actually do something on the building screen (in fact I hadn't actually realised it was even a building screen at first!). So maybe just a line of text on there to tell you to click on the blue dot to add components is all you need.

But once I got that it was nice to play around with and build different kinds of rockets. Awesome work!

You should add more instructions here on how to play your game. Most ppl won't know how to build a rocket.. or even that a blue dot means building :stuck_out_tongue:

I love the fact that I can just be "creative" in my rocket design and just throw whatever I wanted wherever i wanted! The concept seems similar to KSP, and since I have not designed a rocket before in real life nor in KSP, I found myself totally lost in the design, throwing parts wherever I could. It was, however, very satisfying to see that the overlapping rockets I had mashed onto the side of my ship did indeed launch my rocket out of the screen at an incredible speed. So fast, in fact, that I could not track it with the camera in any way, the only evidence of the fruits of my labor the increasing score.

Thanks for the game, I had a "blast"!

Instructions weren't very clear. I came to the comments to find out how to play. Once I began playing I liked designing my rocket.
