Loved the graphics, really pleasant. Not quite sure what I'm supposed to be doing, though - not much feedback on what I'm doing, if anything, wrong. I thought the red line was the planets targeting me or something but looks like its just a debug thing. You've got a solid base to work from - good job!

Cool mouse input game play. the ship follows the mouse very smoothly and well. It seems there was a debug gui red line still in the build. I could not collided with the planets and the portal thing on the right. It seem this build you may have tested some mechanics and forgot to build the correct playable one. Which is unfortunate, as from the presentation it looks pretty interesting. Good work to the Team for what was done so far.

Nice concept. Using the mouse to control the spaceship felt smooth. The game ran endlessly though and I'm not sure if this was intentional. Also, nothing happened when I collided with the planets. The art style is nice too. Great job!

Thanks for the feedback! I was experimenting with the collision and forgot to re-enable damage so that’s why nothing happens when you collide with the planets. Glad you enjoyed it. :)
