Sort of like Transport Tycoon but in space!
Good job! The game is interesting and fun to expand. It would be nice if missions could be set between planets that a ship isn't at so it would navigate there then start the mission.
That's a really nice game! A way to speed it up would've been nice though.
I enjoyed it! Good GUI design given the time you had.
Kind of confusing at some moments but I really like the idea. Reminds me of Transport Tycoon.
Awesome! I hope you have time to check out my entry too, we had a similar idea only you got MUCH more gameplay into yours, beter graphics and a better mood! I really can't rate this highly enough.
Needs a save function and time compression :)
Need objectives in the game, nice work !
I like this kind of game but i get a bug i cannot enter the name of the ship ( chrome / mac ) . i add you to my bookmark to test it later when you fixed it. Cheers !
Great idea, interesting concept! Very ambitious of you. As some others have said it can get confusing, but when you figure stuff out it's really nice!
a great level of polish here, well done!
I like the idea of a space economy simulator. I was a little lost at first and I feel the pacing is tad slow.
can't figure out how to play
A bit confusing at first, as it was pointed out it could benefit from a fast-forward mode. Funny text!
Interesting game but wasted 5 minutes before figuring out how it works.. needs some more help texts
a tutorial would be nice.
a little bit hard to get in to becuase ther is no tutorial but is a good game.
Good merchant game but you should have mentioned somewhere that you can zoom out. Also ships should be able to start missions from planets they are not at and navigate towards them.
This is impressive!! It was pretty hard to figure out how to play at first, but really nice job.
Nice strategy. At the beginning not so clear how to pick direction for research and how to build connection. But audio and mood are really cool.
Really good job, I concur with the other comment asking for a way to speed things up a bit :)
I agree with the comments. A tutorial was planed and a way to send ships on a mission by selecting it and clicking to it's destination. But it was a matter of time. Time went off so fast that I wasn't able to implement them.
Nice work, lacks maybe a tutorial or a more complete interface. But in 48h time you did really good work with an ambitious idea
Very cool. Somewhat similar to my game. I think you did a really good job here.
Very nice, reminds me a bit of Ascendancy. Dunno what I did, but one of the planets (Gemini) flew off towards the camera. Was kinda scary. Great aesthetics and atmosphere though, well done.
I got bored but it also took me a while to figure out how to use the connections. changing the connection notification to say "click on two planets to connect" would have been helpful. The ingame time could also go a lot faster
I really enjoy management games, and this is one of them!
Would be nice to expand it. I like this humming ambient background - very spacy :)
Interesting game, very well designed!
How did you make that nebula background? It looks brilliant!
A little slow paced, but apart from that a great game, I really liked the idea.
It was a little bit difficult to understand
A bit confusing! At first thinked I need a tutorial .. but then I really enjoyed it
Nice game, congrats!
I think you can find a story which does not set the aim but affects the game in a way. There can be many features added to the game. Try to be creative. I liked this basic version. You also don't have to go 3D if you don't really use it :)
I couldn't find any new stars, it was not intuitive on how to do so. Good graphics and atmosphere. Good job!
