Some small suggestions: A scoring system for how many jumps you make between rockets. If your only goal is to last a long time and reach the sky then the best strategy is to not jump at all. So seeing a score for how many jumps you've made would give some incentive to jump.
Also, the camera could follow the little guy, so you can see what you're shooting at, and it's hard to predict which direction the rope will shoot (but still pretty good for being made in 72 hours).
Overall, really good.
oh well, once I got the hang of them, the game was pretty good. nice idea, and well done :)
