Controlling the jetpack only with the mouse is very difficult, I could hardly get past the first few screens. But the frezing gun is very cool! Also, love the visual style and music!
This is really funny and random, I love it! XD The game is too hard for me, had to control both jetpack and freezing with the mouse at the same time. It's a really good game still XD
Love the gentleman jetpacker! :)
Interesting idea to create your own platforms with the freeze ray.
really hard to control my fine gentleman. I like the humour though.
I found it a bit hard to read the name. The blur loading screens were a bit frustrating at one point.
This is a very difficult game. Not that I would want that changed. It's a very challenging game that felt good to get better at/
Awesome concept! Great feel - probably could have been more forgiving on the jetpack fuel for the compo :) The angle of take-off could be limited so you don't accidentally fire yourself down/forward. Really hope you take this post compo.
Only managed to get to 153 points. That was pretty intense.
Looks nice and plays pretty well, too hard for my tastes though.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to place in the final results, you NEED votes. The easiest way to get votes is by rating other games. Judging lasts for 3 weeks following the end of Ludum Dare. For best effect, rate 20 games as soon as possible. Rating more games is encouraged.
MORE TIPS AND DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Really Good but the jetpack is hard as hell!
