Nice little game. A larger screen view would give better feel of space.
Great game, and fun too! At one point I thought "what's stopping me from turning around and going back?", but I quickly found out why :D
Nice consept, only think that miss was some indicator that will show how the sun is close or far away, but maybe that is the way the game was intended, I don't know, just saying it.
Nice concept! I included it in my GMTK Game Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)
Hahaha I loved the name of the game. As for the game design I think that I would:
- Increase the field of view, so you have more time to see when a collectible is coming close
- With increase field of view, I would make some more dangerous props, like black holes which makes you stuck for a moment and make you lose fuel, etc
- Maybe tweak the velocity of the rocket
Ah, the glowing stars also looks nice. Good job!
thanks for feedback, well there are actually black holes in the game, they just spawn later
Very cool! Though, a bit too easy as for my taste, even when not really looking on what's ahead I was more often hitting fuel tanks and repair wrenches than meteors.
Cool take on the theme! I was happy to see that you didn't immediately die when you hit a meteor, and by scattering random items in the level, as well as having an explosion chasing you, there was an incentive to keep moving and get better at the controls. Good job!
