Reminded me of Amiga scroller games somehow. Good design and gameplay. Nice job.

nice start, good graphics, lovely Music.

Do continue to improve it, a solid base you have there.

But on iOS I couldn’t steer the ship at all, only select the weapons and tarvetta rock for pick ups an 

D shoot enemies,  ut no way to Dodge the incoming ammo.

I am unable to play it, maybe my mobile device is different setup. It's cutting off the words and I can't get past the use touch menu. Apk same story. If you got tips how to run it, let me know. 

Otherwise I'll try it later today at home. Currently on mobile only here testing many games.

It's designed for a minimum 540x960 screen size. If your resolution is smaller than that, that may be what's causing your playing issues - there is a play button at the bottom rights of the screen to get started that you may not be able to see.

yeah figured it now, but it didn't work on my phone, it went on portrait mode and I couldn't force it to go landscape either. Strange. Couldn't see the entire text nor the button because of it. My mobile phone can easily play at 1920x1080 too (or 1080x1920). On PC it worked fine though. 
Game was very enjoyable, though I feel that the "robot?" flies very fast, I am constantly pressing the down key to be able to shoot or pick up rocks for money. Managed some highs core still and am on the leaderboard (yay!). I like games where you can upgrade and get further. Really nice concept game and would love to see it get developed further. Can become an excellent casual mobile game.

Ran into the same problem. But it worked on my mobie at desktop mode.

Ooo, that’s definitely going to be one of my favorites of this jam. Very cool game, I just wish that the first round was not so excruciatingly slow 😩

Nice game. I like how you have to mine to get points for upgrades while fighting enemies. It becomes a lot more challenging once you get to later levels and can't kill all the enemies.  I wish I could shoot without a target and could more easily change my mining targets though. 

Developer

Yes, I agree. There were a ton of features I would have loved to get in, including auto aiming, multiple claws and the ability to undo a rock grab.
