I had a lot of fun playing this game, the first level was ultra annoying because of the slow turning speed (I don't mean that is a bad thing, it's a good game element) then it get much better and fun at next levels. The idea is cute, I like it, and space years is a nice idea too. I like modelling in the spaceship area. The upgrading screen was confusing to me, I couldn't understand it sometimes, but the presence of being able to upgrade your turning speed and rocket renew speed vs. was very good. And also the years was confusing, sometimes I go to a year I was not expecting. Overall I enjoyed it a lot!
