Really love the idea of this game! Looking forward to future updates.
Also I think it would be more fun to play if the rover could move faster.

I love the graphics, and the concept. I was pretty far in (next upgrade tier was at $800) when a meteorite hit me.. Can you at least tell me if aliens are real?
Also, the W and S keys both tilt the rover to the same direction.

Real Delicious FruitsThe Vibe of this game was really cool I think something like this would work really well in 3d!

The Alien Quest For EggsDamn this is such a wonderful and relaxing game. Core mechanic was simple but the simplistic pixel graphics and ambient music really got me into a nice and chilled out vibe. Is there only one charging station? If there was another one then I don't think I went far enough so you might wanna add another one a bit sooner just to make the early game a bit less repetitive going back to the start over and over. Still I really enjoyed this and hope you keep working on it!

Red HerringI really enjoyed the art style of the game, but the gameplay was quite boring. The rover moves a bit too slow in my opinion and there is not much to do. Once you scanned some rocks, and recharged your battery, you had to move a long empty way back without doing anything but holding the D key.
The music was well chosen for this project and the sound effects were nice (altough a bit loud, but that is just personal preference to me).
I personally really like space-exploration themed games, so I hope that you continue development as I see the potential with the concept!

Which Is RealGood game, nice work! I liked the atmo of the game a lot and the graphics, sound selection were nice too.

The PomPom Is Not RealNifty graphics, good atmosphere, I had fun. It would be nice however to have some way to recover or restart when the rover gets stuck on its end, instead of having to wait for power to slowly run out.

Death Of An ArtistI love the feel of this game, music and art are both spot on. Enjoyed this game overall, impressive work!

Schrodinger's MouseI think you did a great job capturing the vibe of driving a simple rover on mars. The pixel graphics and color were spot on! The music and feel were very martian!

ContraCube - RunnerReally like how chill it is, would love to play more but first run battery runs out so quickly, and then in my second run I upgraded my battery twice and then flipped over going down a hill. Would have been nice to have a way to manually flip myself back up so I could keep going

Spy ConventionLove how little rover rolls down the hill. But the battery runs out so quickly.. Need more funding to determine if aliens exist.
