Great, awesome design!
I really enjoy jam games where the gameplay goes for a record, with no end in sight.
At first, I didn't realize that I needed to collect items, so I thought I was being clever by staying at the base, waiting for something. (Only when I was writing this review did I notice there was a button with information.)
That was my mistake.
Sometimes I noticed that asteroids can pass through the planet, which makes the game a bit harder, but most of the time they disappeared upon contact with the planet.
The game is engaging, and I like it.
