I really liked the chill vibes and the gameplay ideas! The music was great too!
Judging depth was a bit too hard for me I'm afraid. I liked the graphics, but I felt like there were three conflicting art styles in this game, which was a bit weird.
What does the km number represent? It's not the distance to the goal, because it barely changes at all as you progress. What is it for?
Hi snuffysam! Thanks so much for the feedback!
The number that you mentioned, it’s in fact the remaining distance to the Moon and indeed it changes, but at a different pace depending of the level, please let me give you more detail.
There are 6 levels on the game, they are structured as the Earth’s Atmospheric layers (Troposphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere, Exosphere) + Space. The first three ones, are rather short (10kms-30kms-50kms) so the speed is lower and kms move slower as well. Once you get to the fourth level, things start to speed up since there are longer distances (400kms-10000kms-384400kms).
I wanted to have some “realistic measures” (I even calculated the real-time speed but I ended up dropping it because I thought there would be too much info in the UI), as well as the player to spend similar time in each level, there might be better ways to do it but that’s the how I solved it. I hope it clarifies a bit :).
Thanks again for your input!
