Small Improvement Ideas.

Firstly, I like this game. It's simple and easy to pickup.
I do have a couple ideas that would make this game a tad bit better.
Let me know what you think.

So, Ads are first. Since there are ads already in this game, why is there not an option to pay for the removal of ads?
Adding this certianly won't be a detriment.
Only as long as the current consistency of ads is kept. It's not too much, which is good. It's balanced. You can only get more money by adding the "pay to remove ads" option. There's nothing to lose.

Adding a "Crash" sound when failing would improve the whole aesthetic of the game. Not to mention it would only make it more consistent with the theme you guys gave it.
I'm thinking space-invaders-esque type of crash noise. You get what i'm saying.

Lastly, there are two bugs I would like to bring to your attention.
The first bug is the initial orientation of the ship. Upon starting a level and rapidly hitting the left and right arrows, sometimes, I'de say 3/10 times, the ship get fixed in a left or right facing position.
This has minimal effect on gameplay, however, it bugs me. And probably other players as well.

The second bug happens when the orentation changes from vertical to landscape while in the main menu, and then immediately starting after the game adjusts its ratio.The left and right arrows sometimes do not adjust to the repective corners. They instead are not visible at all. and are located slightly closer to the middle of the screen, at the bottom.
They still work, but it does impede the ability to make good progress when my fingers are more centrally placed/hovering above the invisible arrow keys.

That is all I have for now.
Thanks for making all the amazing games, AE! I'm a lifelong fan. Been playing since 09'.

Have a great day, and BATTLE ON!!!

Great Game!

So, first off, I got 1088 in 4 tries :) Edit: 3022 as of now! 26.89 speed!

This game is amazing! It has simplicity, but it's also extremely complicated, somehow, creating a unique blend of game. Gotta say, the music is great! It's also, will admit, extremely hard. I'm currently going for 10,000, and I predict it will take at least a month. Great game!

Make It Harder!

Although the game is good and all you should make it more challenging to get 500 or 1000. From what I read in the descriptions about this game I thought it would be harder. You could release a harder sequel of this game or make it harder in an update. Other than that it's a great game. This is very good considering it was done by Rolith in his spare time.

P.S.- I play AQW. The given nickname is my username.

Fantastic game!

The game is fantastic. I think you could guess that from the title of the review, but I'll say it anyway. I have no issues with it, other than that I want to be able to regenerate further down the course for points instead of restarting. I think it would be fun. However, it is probably unrealistic and is therefore just a dream. My reason for this dream are thus: past speed 20, you feel invincible when you last more than 10 seconds. Every sharp turn, narrowly missing a wall, increases adrenaline, alertness, attention, and jolts like always, but in a more extreme fashion. This makes it worth it to try, in your free time, trapped in a cab or such, to make it too...
