Can you add in more achievements, love seeing the achievements unlock and my only wish for this game is to have more. Great game though

If anyone has some good suggestions for new types of achievements we'd be happy to hear it. I'll see if we can get some more time attack achievements as soon as time & code base permits us working towards a new patch.

No more time attack achievements please! Those are the most annoying achievements because they're not open-ended. Besides, there's already leaderboards to incentivize people to look for shortcuts and quicker times. Generally I like achievements that make me wonder where would be the best place to try them and give me a sense that maybe I achieved it differently from someone else.

Here are some other ideas:

-Reach a speed of [X] m/s (Good candidates on final level and Christmas 6)

-Cause a physics object other than the player's ship to reach the finish line (can be done on the world 2-9, probably lots of other levels also)

-Interact with every kind of non-lethal game object at least once (I know there's at least one thing that only appears in the Scrapyard so this would be a great headscratcher for people to wonder what they missed... might be too cruel tho, hehe)

-Complete one level with a custom ship and trail (I always like to see that one achievement that practically everyone gets because the global achievement stats on it can tell an interesting story)

edit: one kind of time attack that might be ok would be something like "Complete 10 levels in less than 10 seconds each" (I didn't check if that's possible, just an example). At least that way it would be open ended.

the game needs some easy achievments ;)

my head is spinning -> fly at least 10 circles without touching any wall or object

last one wins -> reach the goal with less than XX m/s

photo finish -> reach the goal with more than XX m/s

i got them all -> fly through each of these objects in subsequent order: object1, object2, object3 etc.

all good things must come to an end -> spend at least 5 minutes flying around without using any type of cannon

on the note of speed achievments it would be nice to show your actual speed in the game.

All good suggestions, I like most of them a lot. Will be a while until we'll be able to get them in game though.

Beat level X only using left or right (not sure which levels would be good candidates).

beat level X without using brakes would be easier to understand though :D
