I was a little confused at the beginning, when it took a few seconds for the first ship to show up and I didn't quite understand how to move the ships until I noticed the pathline! The line blended in with the stars but as soon as I noticed it, the game made much more sense! I love the concept, it's really cool and the art is super cute :)

I played a lot with the spawn rate (learning math and growth graphs all over again), I agree that ships should start to spawn sooner. This solution was mainly better for adjusting the rate over longer amounts of time so the game could be played a bit longer. I am definitely going to put more time into the path line as well. Thanks for the feedback!
