Cool visuals! The game's incredibly difficult, though. :)

Amazing effects and graphics, fun and challenging. A small issue is if it would be possible to confirm the level screen with keyboard. Having to switch to mouse is annoying if you die a lot :)

@Jadernak : you can press enter to confirm the level screen, I forgot to write it.

Pretty good. I liked the visuals.

I think one complaint I have is the controls. They feel a bit wonky. I feel like hitting the arrow should make me level off in that direction if I hold it long enough.

Like, If I'm going straight up, and now want to go straight right, I want to just hold right. Instead, to go perfectly right I need to hit right to get myself pointed somewhat right, then level myself off with up and down. It just seems a little complicated.

But still a nice game!

@Dominator_101 : thanks :) I implemented the controls you described first, but it was a bit buggy and difficult to handle, so i used instead later.

While the controls sometimes seem to be a bit unfair in terms of sliding into enemies, it was just the right amount of difficulty to keep me playing to the end.

I love the art and fx :) Not that easy, the 7th level got me ^^ Nice job!

Nice UI. Very complete game. Challenging and addictive. The level 7 green jump space seems to amplify your angle. I wasn't able to get past it. Game also crashes on exit but it plays fine (with xna installed).

Thanks everyone for the comments ! :)
Indeed the 7th level is quite hard, but possible :D

@Teesquared : yeah I saw that there is an angle modification on the boost when I replayed it, I'll dig into this.
