-=PCTechTalk=- Re: Help with a Game

Just downloaded it and tried it.
Cute little game. Though, here are the problems that I came
across.

For one, it took me awhile to figure out I had to press the
space bar to start. Then, after starting the game, I had no
idea what to do. I didn't immediately see I had a ship on a
rock/asteroid to move around using the directional keys. I
honestly took a good 2 minutes to figure that out.

Once figured out, though, I was toying around with it a bit.
Like I said... cute game. I wouldn't call it addicting, but
definitely a good start in the right direction, with
potential shining through in many aspects. Just consider
getting some words or tutorial or help on there so we know
how to play.

Good job.

If you read my post (smile) -- it said to press F1 for the 
instructions.

But I do appreciate the input and yes, if I was drawing the

rocket it would be bigger.

Cute little game. Though, here are the problems that I came

across.

For one, it took me awhile to figure out I had to press the

space bar to start. Then, after starting the game, I had no
idea 
what to do. I didn't immediately see I had a ship on a 
rock/asteroid to move around using the directional keys. I 
honestly took a good 2 minutes to figure that out.

Once figured out, though, I was toying around with it a bit.

Like I said... cute game. I wouldn't call it addicting, but

definitely a good start in the right direction, with
potential 
shining through in many aspects. Just consider getting some

words or tutorial or help on there so we know how to play.

Good job.

Troth,

I believe she said press F1 to read the instructions before
you start.
