LD39 — Running out of Power

====Pros===

It is a pretty neat idea.

===Cons===

Windows Defender did not like this app.

Very frustrating. Not in a good way.

What makes it so frustrating is the fact that he just stands there for 5 seconds on the wall *not* falling whenever he jumps.

I have no idea where I have to go after a certain amount of jumps.

Long jump and short jump can get pretty confusing when they are just left mouse button and right mouse button.

======In Conclusion====

I had to quit after playing for more than 5 minutes, I just could not play anymore because of how frustrating it was. I kept pushing my self to play to see the whole thing but I just could not do it.

=========CONS======== 1. There was a problem with the resolution so I could never see the entirety of the game at once.

2. Enemies don't seem to be doing much other than just ramming me around however they don't seem to be getting in the way.

3. The ramming force seems to be a constant, what I mean is, is that it always seems to take 4 rams to destroy a star, no matter the speed you are ramming at.

4. I think it would have been a better decision if you made the points automatically get collected by the player instead of you having to collide with the points in order to collect them as focusing too much on collecting the points seems to deplete too much fuel but the goal of the game is to get as many points as possible. So it seems that there are 2 conflicting game mechanics playing at role.

5. For some reason sometimes the projectiles get shot behind the player instead of in front.

6. I ran out of fuel instantly after getting to ~210, it seems impossible to reach any higher that. (Or maybe I am just bad at the game) but you seem to get a heat shield after 200 and I have no idea what that does as I never got around to ramming after getting it because I ran out of fuel.

======PROS====== 1. Smashing into stars is hella fun until you realize that your speed does not really matter, it was good while it lasted.

2. The art and the soundtrack is really good, well done.

3. The movement controls are pretty fluid and the ship moves just as expected.

=====In Conclusion===

Game is..at first confusing (since I could not see thing like the fuel and notoriety because my screen is too small.) and it does kinda get repetitive after the first 5 minutes. I hate to be harsh but I don't think this is a good game. It is gonna take a lot of work to make it at least playable for more than 5 minutes and I personally don't think its worth it. Also I am still new to writing stuff like this and I have no idea how to end this so I am just gonna stop typing right no-

Very fun game! Only problem is that it ran very slow on my pc. I think you should make a standalone build for it as it would run faster.
