It doesn't go past the title screen even if I press esc

Wish there was something to tell me how high I was, if that´s the point of the game. I also noticed some frames dropping, I dunno what this is caused by. I like the mechanics otherwise.

Works ok for me. Good little game. Takes some practice to get the feel for the jumps.

@sriram070 just click the window to focus the game

This is a difficult game! Not because of anything you did wrong, but because I suck at timing my releases. This has the "just one more try" addiction factor to it. The mechanic is simple and fits the theme well. Simple graphics and audio, but they fit the game well. Overall, nicely done.

Addictive gameplay, but lack of background music

This is a tough game - which is good! I found myself wanting to do just one more so many times. Really cool use of theme, and nice minimal graphics. Great job!

The idea is actually quite good. The game plays a little bit slow and clunky in my taste. If it was a bit faster, there would be more fun with bouncing and so on. I can totally see it as an addictive mobile game.

Really liked the physics of slingshotting the little arrow.

Would be nice to have somewhere to see how high up you've got.

Cool game. The flying and orbits feel good. It's nice and challenging too. I would have liked some type of goal or score.

@bereg I totally agree about it feeling slow and clunky, I'm actually thinking about redoing the game and polish it for a mobile release

Great game overall, but I would have really liked a restart button because sometimes you know you're gonna lose and then have to wait, but I am sure you'd have done it if you had enough time

Really liked the physics of arrow. Nice work :)

Sweet little game, though it lacks a bit in Graphics. Really loved the control and physics of the arrow. Go on and it will be a really great mobile game :D

I think I had to optimize better, but in general the game is excellent!
