This is the first game I've seen interpret the theme like this, it was interesting to see, and definitely pretty well executed. Though the beginning is really hard due to how fast the resources drain, and the fact that you already have a drain on resources which gives you a very short death timer.
One main thing I would say was a bit weird was the fact that the game had pausing, but didn't pause the resource drain while looking at the menus for different planets. I would say if there is a pause it makes a bit more sense if it pauses when you're in menus, but that's just my 2 cents.

Parkour PainterI used to spend hourssss on flash games like these when I was growing up. This is so cool. My one suggestion would be to introduce the resources slowly -- like the most essential ones first so we can see how they work. Maybe even simplify the number of resources and building options so it is easier to get a hang of.
All in all, this is really impressive. Great job!

Line BenderAfter a few attempts I've gotten all five resources to increase. Took me until 84 people to pull it off. It was a lot of fun, boiled down some things usually seen in big games down to a small one.
A bit more information at the start would be nice. I found metal to be excessively easy to get and calculating the offsets from increased population was a bit annoying (especially since it made some building that "gave" those resources absorb it). An auto-pause when you land on a planet would be nice. I hit spacebar every-time I landed so I would have time to read the buildings. Overall the game's polish is really good.

Proportionate Response (Jam Game)Really nice game! You can definitely go somewhere with this game, easy to learn and fun to play! 😁 The game is maybe a bit hard, I died a lot of time 😅

Dream NightLots of fun! I played many more rounds than I intended to. The game mechanics are a lot of fun and addicting. There's just a few issues with communicating them.
Whenever you lose, it doesn't show the clear cause of death. You have to search your resources until you find the neglected one. The food resource is hard to see with dark UI panel behind it. I also didn't notice the ship upgrades for the longest time.
But still lots of fun, when I figured out that stuff.

Ember of LifeThis was a super cool game! I like how you need to strategize which planets you need to go to and which resources you need as your resources quickly drain! The only thing I had an issue with is I didn't like how there wasn't a clear indicator of resources about to run out, but that's about it. Great game!

A Jammed TetherReally cool concept I love it ! It might be difficult at the beginning because the ressource are going away really fast but we get use to it ! If you can polish it more with music or other thing you could probably developp it into a complete game ! Congrats :D

SAT (Jam version)Really cool game! I enjoyed the complexity you were able to build in the mechanics without it becoming overly cumbersome or hard to follow! Setting up the trade routes and all was very satisfying as well!
One thing I could suggest is giving the player one extra boost after launching to give a bit more hope or sense of control in a situation where you are unable to reach another planet due to a small mistake or overestimation.
This game feels like one that could polish up nicely over time with some more content to get a nice full release!
Good job!

C.O.M.P.R.E.S.S.I.O.N.I really love the concept, and once I stopped dying almost instantly I had a lot of fun with it!
It really sucks when I misclick and the ship doesn't make it to a new planet and I just have to restart since there's nothing I can do, but other than that, I think this game was really, really good.
Nice work!

Out in the ColdI'm not very good at this type of games, but I do appreciate the art style and the clean UI. Good work!

Kat out of HellThis game is promising, but I found it a bit too punishing and quickly paced. These games are up my alley, so if it were a bit slower, even just at the start, I reckon I could get absorbed in this. But still, great work!

Ball and ChainReally good. A kindred hard-game-type jammer :)
I really dig your execution. I think it needed some "finale" to work towards besides "just" upgrading your ship. I only got to T3 colonies though, so not sure if there was something beyond that. The gas went to zero really quick.
I also found out you could "Cheese" it when you were in a positive state by just sitting on your income.

Chart the StarsCool game! It's cool that you were able to build a resource game in such a sort amount of time. I really liked upgrading the spaceship, upgrade games are satisfying.
