It controls really well. I love the hyper-fast movement. It might have been good to introduce the rockets slightly earlier. I think that many players will fail the tricky jump before first checkpoint and close the game before seeing the main mechanic. Also, while it is cool that the game has music, I think the song becomes irritating because it is such a short loop. This is one of my favorite games I've played this jam, great work.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":978820,"author_name":"zundou","author_uid":"zundou","epoch":1683977077,"text":"I managed to clear the game!

I like the fast pace, it makes it feel more exciting, but it does make it feel a little twitchy\/difficult. I really loved the mechanic of the rutabaga rockets, and the tutorial nicely scaffolded teaching the player how to use them. The checkpoints are a nice touch, they make the game a lot more forgiving. The music is super loud on my headphones but that's my only complaint. Super cute sprite work!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"}],"format":"md","images":["ld53\/wayback-placeholder.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/AlexGarbus\/ludum-dare-53","text":"Link"},{"url":"https:\/\/alexgarbus.itch.io\/rutabaga-rocket","text":"Link"},{"url":"https:\/\/alexgarbus.itch.io\/rutabaga-rocket","text":"Link"},{"url":"https:\/\/alexgarbus.itch.io\/rutabaga-rocket","text":"Link"},{"url":"https:\/\/alexgarbus.itch.io\/rutabaga-rocket","text":"Link"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"68171","g_author":"1242538","g_event":"LD53","g_eventkey":"118","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"291918","g_title":"Rutabaga Rocket","g_status":"WAYBACK","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"4","g_site2_node_id":"365545","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"365545","n_urlkey":"291918","n_parent":"332127","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/53\/rutabaga-rocket","n_slug":"rutabaga-rocket","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"compo","n_author":"242538","n_created":"0","n_modified":"0","n_version":"1144151","n_status":"WAYBACK"},"node":{"id":365545,"parent":332127,"_superparent":9,"author":242538,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"compo","published":"2023-05-01T01:48:05Z","created":"2023-04-30T15:13:32Z","modified":"2023-05-07T21:29:09Z","_trust":3,"version":1144151,"slug":"rutabaga-rocket","name":"Rutabaga Rocket","body":"Play as Turble the turbo turtle in this ~~probably~~ too speedy platformer!
