Make it better

When I’m under 15 during landing, it breaks

It’s really hard

I’ve had this game over a year and I have never landed perfectly i usually die sometimes I get stranded but I NEVER have landed it perfectly

Update ruined the game.

The update made the game weird to play. No longer fun. Go back to old version but just add other levels. New one is just terrible.

Gravity changes near end

For some reason, the gravity changes rapidly at the end. I don’t understand why.
