Haven't been able to try the game, because even though there are links for the major platforms, the run file for Linux is still a .exe file
Foon → Ludum Dare Explorer → LD35 → Shift Commander

10/10
My cannon is shooting the wrong way :c
My first impression was that I was amazed at your splash screen. Looks really professional!
The music brought it down, it's too repetitive. Would've worked fine without the soundtrack.
The game is really hard, almost too hard.
Otherwise, nice work. Hope you had fun making it =)
The cannons are supposed to shoot backwards it's not a bug it's a feature!
Music is not my strong suit but better to include it than not, plus the soundtrack is adaptive which was something I had never done before so wanted to include it
I like the idea, but it feels slightly buggy.
Sweet game! I'm still not entirely sure what some of the ship parts do, but it's really quite fun! Building your ship is very cool, and although shooting 'backwards' is a bit unintuitive at first, the core gameplay is very fun.
Nice and funny game, I like the soundtrack it adds a bit of flair to it, I don't know if I hit a bug or something, but on my 2nd try my weapon started to fire instead of the 2 shots per second, like 10 shots per second. Really nice to play as an arcade game, just to chill out. A little info about each ship part would have made the game (LudumDare)perfect
Not a bug a feature
Each ship part you attach changes the stats if your ship as well as getting an added boost to one of the areas.
So one part might slow you down but speed up the cannons, another increase shields but decrease the size of your fuel tank
I may of made these changes too subtle but jams and properly balanced games don't go hand in hand.
I think I may be saying "it's not a bug it's a feature a lot" ironic that it wasn't the theme
After placing the parts and clicking launch i see my ship but it doesn't move.. well from what i have seen, i think the game is like FTL.
the game starts paused on your first playthrough so you can read the controls, you have to press P to unpause it
This was a really fun game, the splash screen was awesome. This game although is really difficult.
I enjoyed building my ship! Nice touch. I included it in my video compilation series of Ludum Dare games, if you’d like to check them out :) https://youtu.be/jRtyhvCwxto
Cool little game! Sorry to hear about time problems. Music sounds a bit repetitive and the font from the main menu was a bit unreadable but, good game overall!
Very cool game.
I made a ship on the front, but none of the buttons would click to play.
Nice idea with building ship. Cool game! Yellow + orange rocks! :)
If you're interested I've found some time to write about your game on my blog:

i thought this was a really great idea but the ship controls were just terrible and made it unplayable - fix that and you will have a good one here - nice job
Can you elaborate on that? Haven't had anyone else mention any problems with the controls and it literally follows your mouse around.
Well done for getting it in. I didn't really know what I was doing for the most part though.
