Hi goldenhog! Thanks for playing, the game is indeed a bit of a rage-inducing experience for many so hope it didn't cause you too much emotional damage! Appreciate the comment :)

The pixel art was cute and fun!

At first, I was not used to the controls and thought "Isn't this game too difficult?".

However, as I played more and more, the accuracy of the controls improved and the fun doubled.

At the same time, the stages also became more difficult, and from around Level 10, the course became unimaginably difficult from the first stage.

But clearing those stages with the improved control difficulty was a really fun experience, meow!

The best 2D space flight simulator!

I'm so glad that you enjoyed it, tsuneko! :)

I'm thrilled that you were able to wrangle the controls from Level 10 onward - the whole game was initially that level of difficulty until playtesters confirmed that they needed a bit more of a learning curve. So happy that you had fun! :)
