This is incredibly challenging (in a good way). I think the concept is great and it looks amazing for a game jam.

Thanks for bringing the game to the stream:

The graphics are insanely beautiful! Seeing spacecrafts launched and controlled by myself orbiting planets in interesting patterns is very enjoyable. Great effort!

this presentation is amazing for a gamejam game, even if the art was pre-existing. The mechanics are clever and fit the theme well. Overall a great job.

This was really clever. Very tough to learn the controls, but it's a cool concept and I liked trying to control everything with Space physics.

Nice work!

this is a very cool game, I really enjoyed it... Well done

very clever, I think the "lunch with previous settings" should include setup the orbit, its so irritating to have to turn the setup orbit 90 degrees  everytime then press <down>

Thank you for your feedback, it is now fixed and much better ^^. It is a shame i didint do it during the jam.

This is a really fun game puzzle game. I didn't actually really ever use the time scale aspect of the game till I basically had to. I liked the challenge of trying to do everything on the default timescale to see if it was even possible. 
Didn't even encounter any bugs or problems what so ever. What fun game :) - Deer

The idea and execution is great, unfortunately its too hard for me. I didn't complete alot of levels therefore I can't tell how much content there is, but I feel like this game could be published nearly right away with enough levels.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback, i agree it is very hard, i got good enough at it pretty fast during development as i knew what i was doing and i took for granted some elements like camera placement, perspective is probably the hardest thing to overcome in this game. Thank you for playing !

I don't know why i should use mouse wheel(i didn;t use zoom even once) :P but rest is solid and awesome. WOW

Fun, relaxing, a good use of 48 hours!

I would love to have some projected orbits based on what my inputs have been so i can be a little bit more methodical in my thruster use. But i guess thats why we're a little but out of control :)

If you have time I would love it if you could try my game and give feed back. Its called Drone.

pretty nice concept, but I couldnt get past the timescale part of the tutorial within the time I had to test your game

Submitted(+1)

Very interesting concept, polished and well done levels. Good job!

I love space games, the controls were  kind of hard until after I read the game description lol. Very visually satisfying and fun to play, something about the vibe makes me feel like I'm a kid again playing this

I found it very difficult, but the idea and visual / ambience of the game are great. Congratulations!

This game looks amazing and has alot of mechanics which are really cool! Well done.

This game is the one best fitting to the theme I've seen so far (without being annoying). Only the current position of the Orbiter is a little hard to guess.

Submitted(+2)

Nice game! The amount of controls make it hard to begin with, but once you get it, it gets fun. And nice graphics!!

Developer

Thank you for playing !

Submitted(+2)

Great Game! It's so satisfying to get the perfect lauch, and then copying it to have 20 small rockets orbiting around!

Developer(+1)

I'm glad you enjoyed it, thank you for playing !

Submitted(+2)

Wow the graphics are amazing. The controls were a bit hard to get used to but other than that it was really nice. :D

Developer

Thank you :)
