I was only able to figure out how to get one kind of block (it seemed like I was just destroying the other blocks) so I ended up with a spaceship of just one panel. I also destroyed the bottom layer underneath me and fell under the stage, unable to get back out.
Yes, I am really sorry - I just didn't get time to add instructions, there is a little bit of a block selection bug, which I will fix later on today! (and fix falling out of the world :) Thank you for playing anyway.

Aside from taking the name of a recent successful indie game, this game seems utterly broken. I was unable to move, broke some blocks, a monster was attacking me, I guess? To no effect.
I have no idea what game you are referring to, your feedback wasn't very helpful AND it made no sense, as I am able to do all of that. Did you even read the description before playing?
Game has been patched and now actually is playable! Yay! Also no offense to you, Stvr, i just felt you commented just to be malicious.

No matter how much Fuelesium I gather, I don't get any thruster parts in my inventory... Also, how do I restart from scratch? When I double-click the game again, it restarts from when I closed the window last time...
It's a nice idea, I like these digging games, but it still has a lot of bugs.
thrusters require 10 Fuelesium, so are you sure? And the non restarting, that is something I haven't come across. Thank you for the feedback, I'll look into it.

The thruster is the halftriangle, the next one is the weapon.
There doesn't seem to be much advantage with actually building a ship since it get more difficult to avoid obstacles when it is larger.
After restarting and getting to space again you seem to have to control both your old ship and your new one making the game much much harder so you have to quit the game and start it again to get another chance. Also sometimes the soacemusic carry over to the new game.
There should be a way to skip directly to the space part, even if you want to build a ship you could reach the ship you want long before the day ends.
It is a bit annoying that blocks you place are displaced compared to blocks already on the map. It is a nice way to deal with getting stuck down a hole however.
If you dig to the bottom you fall forever and can't get back.
You can place blocks on yourself and on enemies to snare them.
Nowhere in game is there any instruction on what to do in space as it is I would guess that you are supposed to travel in some random direction. If this is the case you need to do something about the problem with spawning on top of an obstacle after a screen transition. If you are simply supposed to survive you should disable screentransitions in space.
Waiting however many minutes a day take to get one more chance to guess randomly at what to do in space is not very fun. There is however a secret save and load function you can use with f5 and f6 that make the wait bearable, you still have to exit the game and start it again between tries since else you get the double ship bug. It doesn't help with the basic problem with the space part though, that you have no idea what to do so after searching through fifty or so screens I quit. So if you have an ending I have not seen it, if you don't have one however you should add one.
The graphics and audio were quite good. The gameplay was lacking, both on ground and in space.
I greatly appreciate your taking the time out to write this lengthy comment, and the feedback was very helpful. I realize the fact that the gameplay is lacking at this stage, and will heavily develop this in the future to make it ACTUALLY fun.
