World 2-33: Meteor Launch

After playing Burrito Bison, I was really in the mood to play some more Launch games. Meteor Launch was my next target, and it was a good one. It had a very cute theme. The story goes that there was a boy on a tropical island who loved looking at the stars every night, and then one night a star landed right on his island! So he did what every tropical star gazing child would do - he spent 18 days launching it back to space, so he could gaze upon the stars once more. It's not often that a launch game has a story at all, let alone one as creative as this.

The currency used in Meteor Launch is fireflies, which you can spend at the store for launch upgrades. The upgrades were also fairly creative, featuring a net to catch fireflies more easily, and adding grass to your meteor to attract the fireflies as well. I'm not sure exactly how long this game took me to complete, but I'd say it was well worth it.

  2. Not bad!! I just beat it again the day I posted this and finished it in 15, although it's probably the fourth or fifth time I have completed it. I don't know why, but I just keep coming back to it! Gotta love those launch games.
