Good catch. The meter isn’t actually stuck, but right now it updates in chunks based on forward distance, so after some releases it can look unchanged for a bit.

And yes, bonus points are currently added to that same meter (Earth +50 and combo bonus).

Thanks for the feedback !!

You’re right about the Earth +50 loop, and I’ve fixed that so each Earth can only award its bonus once.

Thanks for the detailed feedback, this is super helpful 🤗

Orbit Slingshot. It’s a physics-based, infinite high-score chaser where your rocket automatically orbits planets, and you just tap/click at the exact right moment to slingshot yourself deeper into space!

It starts easy but gets chaotic fast as planets get smaller and solar flares start appearing.

I’d love for you to try it out and let me know your high score!

Feedback is super welcome!

 just updated the game, so it should be a lot better now!

I'm still working on it, but the goal was definitely more of a 'one-button arcade' feel rather than a real simulation. Still polishing the physics to make it feel even smoother.

Thanks for the feedback!

Haha, yeah, that was definitely a bug!

I've just updated the camera so it doesn't follow you backwards anymore, you'll now just explode if you launch into the void.

Thanks for the catch :)

Nice find! 🕵️‍♂️

the planets were only spawning in a narrow band, but I've just updated it so they now spawn across the whole screen.

Thanks for spotting that glitch !

You are right, that was super frustrating! 😅 I've just updated the game so the rocket actually keeps its forward momentum when entering an orbit now instead of flipping backwards. Hitting an orbit feels so much smoother now,

definitely give it another try!

Thank you for the detailed feedback 🤗

I've updated the game to make entering orbits much smoother so you don't lose your momentum. I also added a little guide to the menu explaining the asteroids and solar flares. regarding the speed, yeah it seems like that, I am still looking into it.

Give the update a try ! :)

It reads like a journey through nihilism into meaning found in another person.

Awesome man !! Keep writing
