Unable to unfull screen the game, couldn't figure out how to exit so I did alt f4, but then when I tried it again I closed the game with Q or something???? Not sure.

Once I got moving in one direction, I couldn't really seem to change direction. Couldn't really tell which part of the ship was the front, which didnt help. All the stars just kept flying down. Going left or right would just make them go slightly left/right.

Also, looks like the starfield is a static one in the background, and a moving one on top. Here is some code I wrote if you want the starfield to be more pseudo-3d:

>pressing Q quits the game

Surprised me since I was just trying to see if I could rotate with Q&E.

The README mentions a tutorial but I can't find it, likewise any planets after wandering for like 10 minutes. I then mash the keyboard to figure how to set a destination to warp to. I go to the planet and look at the market wares, it has nothing else.

Clearly it's very early, so not much to say about it besides make game. I guess I appreciate how the planets are 2D locations but 3D in visuals, it a neat effect.

Thanks for playing. It turns out the tutorial was broken in that build (only on Windows, and only in release mode). Build 406 fixes that, though there's a new bug that will make the tutorial fail to detect that you warped somewhere.
