This game is super unique, I’ve never played anything quite like it! The vibes were really fascinating and the concept was really ambitious for a game jam. There’s a mysterious beauty to it that I like.

I did find the game a little confusing - it wasn’t clear what I was doing and why, and eventually the game just ended? Some of the text also felt like it needed some more direction, although the writing was nice!

Good work overall!

The art of the game is really beautiful, but the progress is a bit confusing. Good Job

I loved the visual asthetic. It had a bit of a roguelike feel like FTL. Wish there was a few more options but obviously you only had limited time. Very fitting music. Perhaps a visual indication of your growth would have improved it also a bit as I wasnt 100% sure if I was progressing towards the end and winning. Fun game!

Oh and thank you for including a volume slider.

The game looks beautiful and the dialogue has a very nice charm. I do feel the game loop could be improved to better show the progression and variance. Plus the dialogue bar is a bit small and a bit too low on the screen. I would love to play this game again when it's more fleshed out! The shader and visual of planets are incredibly beautiful. I would love to learn how you did those!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! For the visuals we just worked with the assets that we listed!

Very beautiful game, it's pretty simple but the descriptions really enhance the game.

I liked having to try and grow every stat at the same time (but RNG wasn't very kind with temperature encounters at the beginning).

What would really improve the game for me, would be more stage to the player's planet, I liked seeing it evolve as the game progressed.

Very cool ! Good job !

Developer

Thank you! We are planning to do that, glad you liked it

Menu appears, I click [START], I get a popup that says "WebGL context lost, please reload the page", then just a black screen with music.  Unfortunately there isn't anything more I can do.

Developer

Wait a bit and retry, other people had this problem and it fixed by itself after a while
