Was promising but... – The Last Rocket Review

Love the graphics and sound design, but the controls hamper the enjoyment and gameplay as the levels progress. Particularly the reversal animation. Level 7-7 becomes a frustrating tap feat because the delay in reversal timing and actual taps not recorded conspire to just make the level near impossible. If the rocket requires x number of pixels for launch animation and x number of pixels for reversal, then level 7-7's passage must be the exact sum plus a 1% leeway to execute the maneuver. I realized this problem in the early levels, but there was still plenty of level to actually execute the maneuver. Not so in later levels. It's not a matter of game physics either, like the rocket slows and then reverses, it is actually just the fact that one tap is required to launch and then another tap AND a release apparently are required to reverse. An otherwise good game save that major flaw.
