First congratulations on not only making a game, but making it with your mate. I trust it was a fun learning experience? Are you two planning on making another?

As for thoughts I would only recommend you make your ship 1/2 it's size. That will fix the difficulty problem. In my years of making games (vidya, board, and card) and puzzles Over and over again I stumbled into the fact that it is easy to make games/puzzles difficult. However it is difficult to make games/puzzles entertaining, that requires much testing and feedback with naive users. So, yes, I recommend listening to your users and making it a bit more fun and less frustrating.

Thanks! It sure was an entertaining experience for both of us, especially with an SDK that is so easy to work with. As for the difficulty, we've already reduced the size of the rocket quite a bit, but we will continue listening to suggestions for future updates! :)
