Interesting game! I included it in my LibGDX Jam compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :)

Submitted

the music fits with the game really nicely!

Submitted

The story plus music breaks my heart, especially because I couldn't get my guy home. (◕︵◕)

I didn't succeed to get metal, just trying to slowing down the meteor until I was out of fuel :)
Anyway it was still fun to play, the simulation is pretty well done, and the ship easy to control.

It would be good if I can skip the intro cut scene when I play a second time.

I somehow managed to smash meteors into the planet, but alas no metal.

Submitted

Lots of fun just flying around.

Developer

You have to collect 150 units of metal, that's 6 meteors.

To be honest I just wanted to simulate gravitation forces, because it sounds fun, but since it's a game jam I created this little crap around it, but I had a blast playing around, and placing objects in orbit so I'm glad I did this project. :D

Probably that's the reason why only the orbit mechanics are polished. :D

Submitted

I like the orbit mechanics and it was fun bringing the asteroids in. How much Metal do you need to win?

Developer

Yea, it's my bad I didn't explain it anywhere, but basically you just have to fly in front of the meteors and try to slow them, so they'll fall without enough velocity to stay in orbit.

I should had place a sentence in the game somewhere to explain this.

Submitted

i could not figure out how to collect the meteors after messing about for about 10 minutes.maybe im just bad
