Hi there. Look and feel is great, apart from movement of the ship which is a mystery. Show path 'C' didn't help much, couldn't work out how to move where I wanted...

Nice gameplay! In v.2 you need a more resources and tools +)

Nice, I love open world space games. I also have did a space game. Build an in game tutorial as a post compo project with small achievable goals. Makes me think of kerbal space program.

Neat game, a good take on the theme. The ship movement isn't too great, but otherwise great!

Nice, that's a really big solar system the player can explore. The gameplay makes fun. I wished to hear some sounds, but I guess in the post jam versions you'll add some :)

This game is really awesome, but sadly it's probably going to be too hard for anyone who's lacking an understanding of orbital mechanics. I love the idea though, and that you can look at a huge chunk of space by zooming all the way out. I tried using C a few times, but could only get it to show a path when zoomed out; It would be cool to have it predict your path on a more granular scale.

Enjoyable game to play and explore. I like the concept it was fun to crash over on other planets sometimes to find there is little to no fuel. I'll have to keep trying.

An interesting use of the theme and neat little space sim. The controls are a little fiddly but not too bad, a range indicator on the tools would of been very helpful.

I found it very hard to collect ore, but the graphics were nice
