Fun and relaxing management game. Good job!
Ohh, nice space-thingie :)
Fun game! The music was a bit much after a time though.
Yeah, that's why I put a toggle sound button in the top left corner. I was really desperate for music so I just took a track from "Fake Music Generator".
Really nice mood... relaxing, fun, I could spend a lot of time playing this game. One thing is that I am a bit confused about the placement of buildings: https://www.dropbox.com/s/x1wn6xawo5dh88i/warpgate.jpg?dl=0
On the first planet I placed mines on the planet and the space station outside... the second planet I had to place them the other way around? Which doesn't look quite right. Also, it would be cool to show the buildings cost underneath the buttons.
Great atmosphere though, I'd love to see more.
Oh. That wasn't supposed to happen. I didn't have time to do a playtest since I finished the game literally five minutes before the deadline. I would have loved to add the costs under the buttons but I thought of it after the deadline so I didn't implement it. Anyways, thanks for the comments! I'm considering continuing the development of the game.
Pretty complete entry. The steering is peculiar but you can get used to it quickly. Nice job :)
nice management game. controls took a while to get used to. Placing buildings can be a bit confusing. Might be a bit better if you had a mouseover with their cost and name. none static starbackground would help improve navigation beside the minimap. Other then that pretty solid entry, good job!
I think the S and W buttons were reversed for me, S would move the ship forward. Good take on the theme though!
weird controls and ship graphics.. some tooltips for buildings would be helpful
also you should use outline effect for your UI text (in component menu/effects)
I enjoyed flying around the three universes, but it seems the game allowed me to put mines out of planets and space stations inside them. Also, sometimes the buttons where a bit unresponsive, having to click them more than once to get something built.
