I made this

Shoot rockets get high. Felt like sharing.

i love you

This was actually really fun to jump around on. I broke it though. Jumping over that little post at the top left of the map causes rockets to no longer fire properly.

I'd enjoy playing this as a full game with objectives.

Yeah, rockets vanish immediately if they're outside of the level boundaries, and that's actually out of the level boundaries. It used to be inaccessible but I tweaked the force a little and now you can land up there.

Great now I have to think of something to do with it.

This is too entertaining, take it down.

I noticed that sometimes when colliding with a wall, you reload 1 rocket, as if you were on the ground for a split second. It's hard to explain but in the (staircase?) section (The climby bit underneath the pole) you can wall jump from side to side having fired more than 4 rockets whilst in the air. I got to about 9, but it' is really hard to keep yourself in the air.

9/10 I want a time trial race mode

I can't seem to replicate this. Your rockets will reload if you have no vertical velocity and there are no rockets on screen, so you could be hitting the ceiling at the perfect frame to get one rocket back.

Edit

Done with the level.

This is really fun! Be proud!
