nice graphics but very simple gameplay, overall good game and idea
I appreciate your feedback, it really helps a lot! I will definitely learn more about designing and programming more complex gameplay mechanics, so I can make more fun games!
I like the idea, has potential with more time!
Thanks for the feedback!
I like the concept, could do with some matching music. If you keep devving it, I'd suggest adding numbers, like stats. Like how many hits did it take you to plummet this entire system into a black hole.
Sadge you ran out of time. Hopefully you'll keep working on it =)
Hi. I'm glad you tried out my game!
My original plan for stats was to add a timer on the screen and use completion time as the player's score. But I had a lot of trouble with getting the player camera and minimap to work with a rotation-based movement system. I spent too much time and ended up scrapping it and going for a simpler 8-way movement system instead. Will have to work on planning better.
Thanks for the advice and encouragement! I appreciate it :)
I had fun plummeting an entire solar system towards its doom XD
Thanks for playing my game! I'm glad you had fun :D
