Hey, bought the version with the sound, am loving it immensely. The exploration and the gameplay loop is great.
I think the combat is too difficult. It's to the point where I figure a run is over if I get hit by an enemy at all. I get a lot of rockets and try firing, and no matter what, other ships are able to bombard me with more tickets than I can reasonably dodge even without worrying about shooting them down, which isn't really explained or clear. Am I shooting them by targeting them with the X-rays and pressing "a"? If so, that is doable (I've shot enemy ships a few times I think), but the enemy needs to fire rockets less frequently, it becomes frustrating to be unable to dodge them more reliably. The ship is too large for the way the rockets come in from the side so close together, and focusing on hitting the other ship is too much in addition to this.
