Nice work. I think is pretty cool that the player can move entirely freely and scan for pick ups. However, the gameplay is a bit slow-paced in my opinion (though that's not necessarely a bad thing). I think the game would strongly benefit from more variety in the pickups and probably a little explanation about what they do.
Very good job! The graphics and audio were great. The game play was fairly simple but still fun and gave a good incentive to keep searching for more resources. I really liked the background and GUI as well. One thing I did notice was that I was unable to pick up some of the enhancements even though I spam clicked E. I don't know if this was because I already picked it up before (I did notice that a lot of them would keep appearing as I explored) or if it may be a possible bug in your code. Overall, this is a very good game.
I would love to try your game since it looks cool, but the download is down :(
Nice graphics and overall experience. When it comes to upgrades I think it would be better if they were automatically picked up when they are within reach unless there is some advantage of using lower tier elements of equipment that I don't know about. I liked the small detail that player can't rotate if the engines are not turned on.
Great! Died at 90 because I couldn't use my radioactive Energy
Very nice, sweet graphics & animations. Great work 👍
The game is incredibly beautiful and the sounds are really neat too ! I was just good to immerge you in that atmosphere, you have manage to create a real virtual world presence here, great job ! The animation of our tiny ship make it good too to move, even if I don't really like the controls for how you rotate your ship and stuff. Maybe it's a little too passive and lack of things to do, but for me the experience was still good, I just liked to move around and enjoy the graphics and the sound, the atmosphere. Nice entry mate, good job ! It deserves more ratings tho.
With a tier 1 reactor you generate your own power, but with the tier 2 upgrade this seems to stop. Is this a bug or am I missing some vital information? Because it seems impossible to stay alive after this upgrade.
Really digging the feel of this game. The music is perfect, and I love the animation on the ship (robot?).
If you have any plans for expanding this post-compo, I'd for it to have a bit more sense of direction. Not necessarily in terms of checkpointing, but some clear, achievable mini-goals would go a long way in keeping interest longer-term. At least for me.
Everyone's talking about the gameplay and graphics, which are great. But I think it's worth highlighting the opening title screen, which is stunningly gorgeous, with an amazing background track as well.
@arnage The tier 1 reactor uses hydrogen and oxygen (the 2 left-most resources to generate power). The tier 2 reactor on the other hand uses uranium to generate power, so make sure you have enough of that :)
@luckyy that makes sense, I never actually found any uranium in the playthrough where I managed to find the tier 2 reactor :)
Looks and sounds fantastic, plays well, really impressive showing.
I found the upgrade system a little frustrating. Spending lots of time flying to an upgrade that turns out to be less good than what I have -- or, in the case of the radar that doesn't detect hydrogen or oxygen, repeatedly gets me killed -- got really annoying after a while. That part could use some work.
Overall, a definite thumbs up!
Visually impressive (the sparkling stars catched me at first) yet together with a touch of pixely retro. Well done! But could use some more sfx though.
This game has a really nice aesthetic, really nice sounds, and overall makes for a great mood. That being said the controls weren't the most responsive in the world, but that is understandable considering the space setting. I didn't find the gameplay to be particularly rewarding, but you have made a really interesting environment nonetheless.
very nice game. The gameplay is fun and the art is good.
