Quality of this game is really high. Like in the end I liked basically everything about it.
I like how game teaches me everything step by step.
Lvl1. Thought me how to control the ship and that it's not easy so you need to get some skill
Lvl2. Thought me about docking and shooting
Lvl3. Thought me that I can use weapons to change direction and basics of combat before fight with real enemies.
Lvl4. Put to the test what you learned about controlling the ship
Lvl5. Test all your skill together. Awesome!
I really feel like no part of the game is random choice and everything is done with intention.
If you would like some feedback for final touches then:
- At first I was annoyed that there is no "Slow down" button, but it wasn't an issue when I got used to it. Maybe consider adding Assist mode with inertia dampeners to help those who had hard time controlling the ship.
- Death by colliding with wall is based on speed it seems. I would add an angle of impact to equation, because hitting a wall at 1 degree angle while flying fast will do almost no damage to the ship while flying ship slow and hitting it at 90 will do some serious damage.
- hmmm.... Add more missions! :D
Very nice job and great game! Your skills always amaze me. I'm sure you worked hard to get to this level!
