It took me a second to figure out that it was more than just Asteroids, but once I upgraded my ship, I started to really get into the cadence of my lasers and missiles firing. Great work on the ship building component. I did get to a spot where I was somehow able to remove all thrust capabilities -- but I was actually still enjoying being a stationary turret. Thanks for making this game!
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for the feedback.
This game was very hard at first, but after fully upgrading everything on the second hull, I'm pretty sure it becomes impossible to lose. Also it gets really loud. I do wish that the ship would stay still by default instead of having to hold the backwards key to stay still, as I found only moving when you had to made the game easier.
Thanks for playing and providing feedback! We thought making the ship constantly move would encourage more dodging and action, but I can see how it can also make things more difficult. There's definitely a lot of work that can be done with the balancing.
well its a hard game, but very interesting the idea! great job!
The balancing could definitely be better. Thanks for playing!
thought i need to kill all the units but all I need to do is just to stay alive! good work :)
Thanks!
This way too well done to be for a game jam, I absolutely love it! The concept of choosing where to place thrusters and shooting stuff around a main ship reminded me of Nimbatus quite a bit, which is certainly a good thing (;
I actually spent more than 20 minutes playing it, it's awesome and not only it is enjoyable, but definitely feels quite polished :D
Im glad you liked the game!
Nice game! It's pretty hard, but rewarding when you get the chance to upgrade
Thanks for the feedback!

Awesome game! The asteroids are tricky to hit but really satisfying to dodge and destroy!
Im glad you liked it!
THIS IS SO SO SO GOOD! I got addicted for like 20 minutes playing this game. Although upgrading felt less rewarding than risky because of how punishing death was, I really enjoyed the rougelike-ness of the game.
Thanks for playing! Im glad you liked it.
I got addicted again to playing your game. Help.
Very fun idea! I like the idea of scale being interpreted as something being built upon. The asteroids may have been a little too tough to dodge but it made a fun challenge
Thanks for playing and providing feedback! There is definitely a lot of work to be done on the difficulty balancing.
fun! really juicy and action packed
Thanks for playing!
Nice work, good job!
Thanks!
Haha similar idea to ours! Really love the look of the game!
Game is definitely hard, but had fun playing it! Would suggest tweaking the transition into the shop, got hit almost every time i would open it or when exiting it.
Yeah these games are indeed similar! Thanks for playing and reviewing.
Very cool! Enjoyed the style and the way you could upgrade your ship was a great take on the theme.
Thanks!
Really nice game!
I am forced to admit being very bad at it yet had a wonderful time! Good job to all the team 💪
Thanks for playing!
Pretty enjoyable experience, the beginning is hard to get used to but once you start upgrading and getting used to how the system flows everything gets fun and arcade-y. Great use of the theme thinking about how you will scale your ship up!
Thanks for the kind words! The game probably could have been balanced better but im still glad you enjoyed it.
Great game! Really enjoyable type shi
Thanks!
Amazing Game! it has a really good learning curve and I really enjoyed my time :P
Glad you liked it!
Pixel art is amazing! Really enjoyed the game :)
Thanks for playing!
Pretty good ideal, really well done the art and all the options. A lot of mechanics for a game jam, congrats.
I just wish that the game was a little bit easier at the start hahaha
Thanks for the review! Many people have mentioned the challenging difficulty, so for sure that's an area of improvement.
