mission completed in 24 days

Damn, I should have! I had the cash.

 

did you just go straight up?

i wonder if you had gotten the rocket booster if you could have gone up faster?

my late-game strategy -- use the parachute to coast down and get cash.

 

18, 13, 11 in my first three tries. the third would have been better but I fucked up the first launch and just fell out of the launcher to the tune of a buck twenty five.

 

Going for the e-rocket as early as possible helped me, though I'm sure there are multiple ways of doing it.

 

just got 6 days

 

12 my first time, 4 on my best one while buying every upgrade and having 6k+ left over. The key is to hit a gold launcher on your first day to get enough height that you earn enough dough to buy the e-rocket. After that I just boost to maximum height and spend any leftover cash on a parachute, then e-rocket upgrades, and finally the band and launcher. You just want to maximize your modifiers, so you get to the best height you can and then open your chute. While it's tempting to hit launchers to get higher again, you make a lot more money by parachuting down and using your fuel to avoid launchers as long as possible. You don't get as nearly as much of a bonus for time as height, but it's still a big multiplier.


Fun game, thanks guys.

 

4 days. Had around 3K left with everything maxed out.

 

3 days- one short of max on band and launcher, max on e-rocket, nothing else

 

Ditto for me, although I maxed band and launcher after Day 2. I was so very close to making it on Day 2, but just because of dumb luck. I had a ridiculous Day 1 where I hit like three gold launchers and four greens.

 

Finally made it in 3 days.
