Oh and by the way, what is the black fuel, that you talk about? all i see is white, blue, red, green, and light blue fuel types. Do I have to unlock it, or something? This game needs a tutorial. Even with your explanations, and the sort of explanation, THIS GAME IS TOO DIFFICULT............    EASY OPTION, Please, so, that a person, can get used to the game, and its controls, maybe a really, really, really EASY OPTION for ME.  On another note. I played a game years ago, it was jump, jump, fall into the lava, try again. jump, fall into the lava, jump, jup, lava... J,J,L... J,L. walk into lava. Try double jump, but end in the Lava. Well after about 84 hours, I was unable to traverse across this lava field with rocks that went up and down. I asked the next door neighbours son to have a go. He did it on his first attempt. Why was I not able to jump across? Its like this game, I need a very, very, very easy option. Oh also, I can solve many things, but certain speed related things are not my FORTE. Thanks.

Update on the Sixtieth attempt, I realised that I could press the fuel buttons 1 - 5 and managed to get to the space station, where i bought some fuel, I bought some, fired it up, but then ran out, and my spaceship, is very, very, very slowly, plummeting to its final demise, on the planet below, I can see by the vertical speed, which is 0.20, surely that should be going up, if it was negative -0.20 then i would understand. but hey good try at a space game. Good Luck Dude.

After 33 Deaths, and not being able to land on a resorce fuel, I have to give up, I thought that the landscape would adapt to my skill level, which is at this moment, Appalling. At first I tried to see if i could get into orbit, but soon realised, I didn`t have enough fuel to maintain a stable orbit. I didn`t read your instructions, though. HA, Ha. I thought that the AI would learn and give me more fuel to reach a stable orbit. So after many attempts, I read the Instructions, and still after the 33rd attempt, I was still unable to land safely on a fuel deposit, to load up. How do you land on the deposit? I tried the shield, that seems to do nothing. Avid Fan of Kerbal Space Program, so I know a bit about orbital mechanics, this game is too difficult, thanks but bye.

I never seem to be able to get enough resources to make it worth flying to the space station. I think either fuel consumption should be reduced or the veins should provide more fuel. Reaching the station to buy updates might also be a bit easier.

Also I think a better indication where to find fuel would make the game more playworthy. The fuel distribution does not make it any better, if you are unlucky you may find lots of the useless black fuel.

In my latest update I reduced the amount the veins spawn with, so you might be right about them being too scarce. I'll keep testing and maybe tweak the rates if the issue becomes more obvious. If you can get enough credits for an engine or aerodynamics upgrade, youll get more bang for your fuel buck.

Its funny that you call finding the black fuel unlucky, its actually the most valuable product in the game by about 5x. Its also great for ultra soft landings later on when the gravity increases and your engine becomes very twitchy. I find the red fuel is the least useful tbh.

Thank you so much for the feedback! I honestly appreciate it a lot. If you keep playing itd be great to hear if your opinion stays or changes.

Does not deplete all the fuel:


Youre full. You can tell by the fuel tank liquid reaching the tip of the rocket.

So? Blue was not full...

EDIT: Oh now I get it, the rocket can only hold so much fuel in total... that makes it even more difficult then?

(+1)

seems a little difficult to land?

also it can get stuck

Yep getting stuck is not a bug. If you have Red fuel, you can tip yourself back up, and if you have Blue fuel you can activate your shield and push away. Failing all that, you can hit Enter to abort and respawn. 

Regarding landing, if you have Black fuel you can achieve a very soft landing.

Thanks for playing, and thanks for the comments!

If you want feedback, it is too tough for a casual player.

I appreciate the feedback. Ive updated the game since you last played, it should be more forgiving now. Let me know what you think!

It's an improvement

I think the safe landing velocity should be significantly higher.
