I love 2d space shooters.  Been playing Drox a lot lately.  Very nice beginning of development.  The score is a little broken but I didnt mind as I like collecting millions at a time.  Got bored quickly and thought I was doing great weaving in and out of asteroids until I realized no collisions there.

Cool parallax effect! Wow! :)

Played and rated.

The game concept and story is interesting, it was interesting playing for some time. Having more content, and easier to control movement would make it much more fun. Congrats on this making a game for this game jam, keep it up! :)

Would appreciate if you check out and rate our game as well: https://hadilepanda.itch.io/rise-of-necromancy

Too slow for me, the ship should move faster. Didnt get the point of the game

The parallax background and vfx looks great. Right now the game has very minimal content, you got an interesting story and gameplay design; and now you just need to implement it. Good luck! 

You made floating controls feel good and it's quite chill, very nice game! ^^

I liked the context of the story, it sets up the beginning well. Also the parallax effect in the background was awesome. I would have improve a bit the ship movement, I think could be more turn responsive. Good work!

For such a simple game, the backstory you gave it really sold it for me. Whats that, I'm a brain inside a space ship? Wow. At that point, possibilities were endless. I really love things like that. My only issue was that the space ship was a little slow to control, but probably because I've only been a brain in a space ship for a day xD  Congrats on submitting, and good job! Keep improving this and writing awesome stories behind your games.

Really nice story you wrote ! The game has potential, and no matter if you did not get the chance to finish it, you were able to learn during that process. Great work !

Very good concept, nice story, you could maybe add a mini map, and its kind of hard to control

Things that were really cool. 

• Parallax space background 
• Story 

It seems like a good starting point. I couldn't understand why I can shoot an asteroid but fly through it.

Keep up the good work

Hi! I tested you games current version and here's is some of my thoughts after playing:

• I like the multiplayer star background. It's very atmospheric. Although I think there is some issues when turning. This is especially easy to see when going in circles. If try pressing up and down at the same time for some seconds you should see that the stars start to move chaotically.
• Also other visual element of the game looked really good. Great job with this!
• Moving up or down I feel I don't see where I'm going because the spaceship gets so close to the edge of the screen. Maybe the camera could react faster when moving vertically. When moving left or right the camera movement is fine.
• If there was a goal in the current version, I did not find it. I noticed that one can shoot asteroids and collect rewards when asteroid is destroyed but this did not lead to anything. I guess I got points from doing that but as there was no way to see how many points I had collected it did not feel like I was making any progress. You might want to add having an UI with total collected money to your to do list.
• The money/score gained from one item was quite high to the point that it was really hard to read the whole number and understand how large it was before it disappeared. You could consider having slightly lower values to make it more easy to the eye. I think values with 4-6 numbers are still recognizable but after that it starts becoming difficult (at least for me). Another option to improve readability of the values would be to use commas or spaces to break down the values: 123 456 789 or 123,456,789 are easier to recognize than 123456789.
• Otherwise it was good that you had those numbers popping up when collecting the items. That's making it very clear to player that they gain something and flashing big green numbers on the screen can also feel rewarding.
• I was expecting that hitting an asteroid would lose the game but then it did not happen when I accidently bumbed into one. I can see that you have mentioned ship damage in your future plans so you have probably thought about this but the game should definitely have some way of losing. Or at least most games have something like that.
• About the controls: personally I would like the spaceship to have bit higher maximum speed and have it be able to change direction bit faster. Now turning feels bit slow. Unless you would specifically have meant the controls to part of the challenge or have the spaceship to behave with very "realistic" physics (=fast object changing direction slowly), I would encourage you to improve controllability of the spaceship. In many cases the game becomes more fun when things react to user input quickly.

Hopefully at least some of my feedback is useful when you are continuing with your project. Good luck!

that story is already superb and cool motivation for an arcade game!
if you can match the gameplay to that level, I'll be on board!

Very chill game! I like the story. You've put a lot of thought in premise. Hopefully you'll be able to incorporate more of it as you develop your game. 

This was a fun little game, well done! As others have mentioned I think the controls made it a little more challenging but I still had fun playing it. I can tell you put a lot of work on the story too so good job! :D

I really liked the relaxed atmosphere and the star parallax. Great job and cool background story!

I would have wanted a more responsive controller. Besides that, I love space games and lasers :) 

Well done :)

Reading your page it seems like you've learned a lot of new things which is great. Obviously its resulted in a somewhat unfinished product but learning cool stuff is its own reward.
I like that you went with the parallax although I think I would have had 1 layer constantly moving as you're never really stationary in space and I think maybe the layers were too tight, I don't know if there were too many or they were just too close in "distance".
I personally didn't like the ship controls, it was very difficult to manoeuvre but I appreciate that is a choice and preference thing. 
I did have some issues with the WebGL - I don't think the unity and itch.io full screen buttons play nice with each other, I would try turning off the itch.io on , even in full screen some of the text at hte top was cut off. 
Theme-wise, I think this is probably one of the most shoe-horned games but themes are hard, you got a game out and it is playable. Visuals were great and the music was very nice.

Whats here is pretty good, I like the weight of the ship, the difficulty of the controls makes it a real challenge to chase after what drops from the asteroids. The parallax effect is really nice. I think if it was turned in to a game it would be a lot of fun.
