um..
So..the more you increase "slower pickup", the laggier the game gets?
Reviews for "Galactic Miner"
This is a decent game, with pros and cons
I played this game thru to the end, meaning I got 2500+ minerals. I liked the fact that the very minerals you use to up the different stats, are the ones you need to use reach the overall goal, keeping you from finishing the game too quickly. The meteors that come down are a distraction at best, nothing too hard to avoid unless you are at the top of the screen collecting minerals.
I hope you work on the control scheme, because the mouse controls are flaky overall and don't respond to movement the way I thought they should, especially if you max out control, as in at max, the ship should be right with the mouse movement, and even at max, it trails behind it a bit and I found myself continually going off screen.
I think that to add difficulty, the closer you get to the goal, maybe there are enemies they come along and try to pick up the minerals, like ones that go straight across the screen, ones that maybe go up and down, and then have ones that go directly for the better minerals. To this, you could add guns to the mix to shoot them down.
Overall, this is a good game and it has potential to be better. Thank you for making this and i hope that you try to make this better!
Great and Simple Game
.........however it would have been better if there were say more dangers then just running out of fuel or the rocks. This could have been maybe some hostile ships that fire at you. You could have also had a gun yourself which could be upgraded. The final thing that I would improve was maybe up to four types of mineral to collect, maybe a 10, 25 and 50 one. then of course the target could be raised.
I have to say though that I did like this game. It had a good number of medals and was quite addictive.
well done
4/5
Nice game, not more
A decent, addicting game. Needs improvement.
Controls: 7
Fun: 7
Graphics: 8
Music and SFX: 9
Controls need work - when mouse is off the game, doesn't move in the direction you want, very annoying.
Fun - a bit repetitive, maybe introduce new thing as the game progresses - weapons, new minerals, enemies and stuff. Medals were interesting though, and the first secret medal is still unachieved to me.
7/4 overall score.
not bad
fun and good to play. it lagged out everytime i clicked the mouse and when there got too many things on the screen.
other than that it was good
