The controls are horrendous. 7 minutes was enough for me.

Honestly, fun and challenging game, the controls for me weren't a problem once I got used to steering with the mouse. I think all the negative reviews on here are generally from people who just aren't that good at the same. There are 2 modes; Basic and Advanced. Basic gives you 2 lives inside a mission to complete it. Advanced gives you no lives to complete it. Advanced provides a very challenging experience. I'm currently on level 8/13 and I've done 6/13 levels on hard mode as of this review.

I wrote a bunch about how the game really needs a controls menu. Turns out the button for it is just greyed-out and hard to see. That could really do with some fixing, since a couple other people in the reviews seem to be having the same issue with not finding it. You might want to consider adding an option to make the joysticks less sensitive near the middle, since being able to turn quickly requires setting the controller sensitivity all the way up. That in turn makes aiming at small targets really difficult. Setting the default sensitivity on the joysticks to the highest would make it possible for players to complete levels with tight turns without having to seek out the sensitivity settings. Many players are used to there being no sensitivity setting for joystick controllers. It seems like some people are having this exact issue in the reviews as well. The last thing that needs fixing in my opinion is the aspect ratio scaling. Setting the game to a wider aspect ratio (ultrawide) makes the field of view more narrow vertically instead of widening it horizontally. This makes steering up or down more difficult since you can't see what you are steering into as well.

Normally I wouldn't even consider posting a review with less than an hour's game time, but the controls for both keyboard + mouse and controller are so bad that the game's borderline unplayable.

I did not enjoy this. It looks interesting enough. The main menu and the sounds were interesting. But controlling the ship is aggravating. I shouldn't have to fight the controls. I don't mind hard games when the controls are fluid. I attempted to get used to them but they feel unnatural. Tried both keyboard / mouse and controller, both offered poor controls.

The controls are terrible, I have no idea if I'm doing anything right, the only controls they told me about are the launching mechanics, they have options to rebind the keys but they don't work, the levels are too small for the maneuverabillity of the plane, and the game is incredibly unforgiving especially to new players. Other reviews imply that playing the game more will allow me to get used to those controls and understand the game more, but if the developers can't make that an enjoyable experience then I'm not playing.

Controls are horrible. Why! A very hard skip until this is fixed.
