[i]ROCKETS FUCKING EVERYWHERE[/i] is a game I made a long time ago, originally for the 'Chaos' contest on GameJolt (with the musical talents of Graham "Pitfall" Baker). It got positive feedback, but it didn't do well in the actual competition. I decided to remake it from scratch, and after quite a while of kinda-working-on-it-but-only-kinda, I finished it and released it on the website [url="itch.io"]itch.io[/url]... for $1.50
Recently, I decided it might not be designed well enough to be sold for $1.50, so I decided to make the game [b][i]completely free/pay-what-you-want![/i][/b] Yaaaaay!
You can play/get the game in two ways:
[b][url="http://gamejolt.com/games/arcade/rockets-fucking-everywhere/27998/"]HTML5 on GameJolt![/url][/b] (Uses GameJolt scoreboard)
[b]OR[/b]
[b][url="http://phobos001.itch.io/rfe"]Download the game from Itch.io![/url][/b] (Does not post scores to GameJolt scoreboard. Gives you a chance to donate.)
[b]Graham Baker (Pitfall) is a very talented musician! you can check him out by going to these: [url="http://pitfall.newgrounds.com"]Newgrounds[/url] | [url="http://www.soundcloud.com/pitfall-3"]Soundcloud[/url][/b]
[b]IndieGameEnthusiast actually did a review of the game, back when it was being sold. You can read it [url="http://indiegameenthusiast.blogspot.com/2014/01/pc-spotlight-66-rockets-fucking.html"]here[/url]! [/b]
Let me know what you think, and I hope you have fun ^^
Interesting game. Tried playing the web version and it was really unresponsive to my mouse. Don't know if that's just on my end or not though. Still was pretty fun.

If you mean the slight lag with the ship, that was done intentionally. The following equations (from what I remember, haven't looked at the events recently.) are used for movement:
[code]p.X = lerp(p.X,Mouse.X,1 - 0.0005 ^ dt)
p.Y = lerp(p.Y,Mouse.Y,1 - 0.0005 ^ dt)[/code]
This makes the ship always transition to the mouses position. It's nicer than having it rigidly attached to the mouse, and prevents players from exploiting collision detection by thrashing the mouse around like a lunatic.
If this isn't what you're talking about, then I'm not immediately sure what the problem is or how to fix it. soz

Ah ok didn't know that was intentional, my bad.
[QUOTE=WitheredGryphon;45903751]my bad.[/QUOTE]
It's fine man. Glad you enjoyed the game though! Went to look at the recent scores and saw a lot of activity. [sp]YAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYY!!!!!!![/sp]
Did you guys check out the extra settings in options?
They're pretty neat.

I read the title and I think there's going to be Rockets that are fucking and are everywhere doing so.
I am disappoint, I see no Rockets having sex. :|
I forgot to mention amazing: Michael of RoosterTeeth did a Rage Quit episode on the game, but for some reason some of the fun variables were active, making the game WAY harder than it's supposed to. [b]Over 700,000 people saw the video[/b] and now think the game is unplayable garbage. But the fact that over 700,000 people saw my game is just [i]MIND-BLOWING[/i] and I am forever grateful.
