It took a bit to get used to the controls since I didn't know what was happening at first. But afterwards, the game is very fun, and I really like the sounds and effects. The HUD paired with the graphic effects pair nicely and make you feel like you are the pilot of a futuristic starship!

Developer

Glad you enjoyed!

Such an extensive game jam game, congrats on making this in this short time window! Looks very polished and I love the audio! There is plenty of cool mechanics and ways to customize the ship. I feel like pausing for the shop takes the wind out of the action a little wondering if there could be a quicker way of using the shop and maybe a slow-motion with it rather than the full pause. Really cool game!

Thanks for playing! Polish was a significant priority with art and audio, so I'm glad you enjoyed it. The pause suggestion is a good one for a future version of the game. Really appreciate the feedback!

This was a seriously addictive game. The pixel art is absolutely spot on - I kinda wish my ship didn't reset every time I levelled it up, but otherwise I loved it!

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot for the feedback! The ship leveling feature could definitely have been better with saving current progress, but we would have needed some more time to make and test that. Glad you enjoyed it though!

everything is just perfect but it's too hard im dying too easily. but maybe im just a bad player. love it 10/10

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the kind words! I don't think you're a bad player but the game is a bit difficult since we didn't get enough time for playtesting and balancing, but I'm glad you still liked it!

This is one of my top games from the jam, I've play this game for so long.  It's incredibly polished and has great depth.  This is one hell of a product for only 4 days. 

My only criticism is I think the player might take a tad too much damage from the asteroids, and I wish upgrading the ship didn't start you totally from the beginning.  I would like to keep my current parts.  I've had a hard time getting a ship off the ground but it's been a LOT of fun!  Full marks from me awesome job!

Thanks for playing and reviewing!

Saving the ship would have been a good feature if we had some more time. The difficulty curve could also be smoother with more testing.

Glad you liked it!

I love the idea of adding and rotating modules to my ship to make it bigger. Unfortunately, I was unable to get very far because there were so many meteors in close quarters at level 1. Great job on putting that UI together in such a short amount of time!

Developer

Thanks a lot for the feedback! The difficulty definitely is the largest area of improvement for the game, as it definitely could be a smoother curve. Glad you liked the customizable building system!

Very polished game, art music and gameplay are all top notch, the learning curve is a bit steep but Im sure many people will like this :D

Developer

Thanks for playing! The difficulty curve could definitely have been smoother given more testing time.

The UI and art is extremely polished for 4 days it is really impressive. I love the modular way of building onto your spaceship it is really satisfying and intuitive. The compass freaked me out a bit at first I thought I was being chased XD Audio is really fitting :) The enemies come a bit fast and hard in the beginning but nothing deadly :) well done this is awesome!

Developer

Thanks a lot for playing!

Knocking this out in 4 days must have demanded a lot of your team. Well done!

Developer

It sure did! Thanks!

Submitted(+1)

Excellent game! There's a lot in here for just a 4 day development time, I loved it!

There's definitely a lot of rocks you need to dodge, but it's still a lot of fun!

Developer

Glad you liked it!

This game is absolutely gorgeous! The gameplay is also surprisingly deep, even if I haven't been able to survive long enough to fully appreciate the upgrade system... (^_^;)

Brutally difficult, yet strangely calming and meditative. Great work!

Developer

Thanks a lot for the kind words! The difficulty could have definitely been smoother if we had more time to balance.
