🚀 Blumgi Rocket: Thrust Vectoring and Time Dilation

Blumgi Rocket applies the chaotic energy of the Blumgi franchise to the racing genre. You pilot a vehicle that is less of a car and more of a projectile. The core mechanic revolves around Thrust Vectoring. By holding the action button, the game enters a Time Dilation (slow-motion) state, allowing the player to rotate the car and aim its main thruster. Releasing the button unleashes a massive kinetic burst.

This stop-and-go gameplay creates a unique rhythm. It is not about constant speed; it is about ballistic trajectories. Players essentially "launch" the car from point to point, ignoring gravity and friction for short bursts of intense acceleration.

🧠 Cognitive & Reflex Training

The game trains rapid planning and execution:

• Trajectory Visualization: During the slow-motion phase, the player must visualize the parabolic arc the car will take. Aiming too high stalls the car; aiming too low causes a crash.
• Spatial Orientation: The car rotates freely in mid-air. Players must maintain mental orientation even when the car is upside down or spinning, ensuring the thrust vector points in the correct global direction (towards the exit).
• Impulse Control: The boost is powerful. Overusing it leads to overshooting the platform and falling into the void. Learning to use "micro-boosts" is a sign of mastery.

🎮 Mechanics & Physics Engine

The simulation balances speed with control:

• Rocket Physics: The car behaves like a rigid body in zero-G during the boost, but returns to standard gravity mechanics when the boost ends. This duality requires shifting between "Flight" and "Drive" mindsets.
• Wall Climbing: The thrust is strong enough to pin the car against vertical walls or ceilings. As long as you have momentum, you can drive on any surface (Centripetal force simulation).
• Destructible/Dynamic Level Design: Levels often require blasting through barriers or pushing massive balls into switches. The car acts as a battering ram.

🏆 Speedrunning Tactics

1. The "Floor is Lava" Approach

The fastest way to move is by flying. Driving on the wheels introduces friction. Expert players spend 90% of the level in the air, chaining rocket boosts together without ever touching the ground.

2. Corner Cutting

The rocket boost is powerful enough to skip entire sections of the track. Look for shortcuts over walls. If you can see the finish line, you can reach it, regardless of the intended path.
