Love it! Would be really cool as a mobile game! But it's quite impossible to lose, isn't it?

I really like how you don't instantly lose when you run out of power, creating an intense moment to reach the power supplies. Great game, and amazing graphics!
Deceptively challenging and addictive! Very much a 'just one more go' kind of game.
I really like the pixel art. The colours in the pallet are well selected and don't clash with each other.
The controls were intuitive and simple, though it felt a little tricky to get the ship exactly where I wanted it to be sometimes. It would work great with touch controls.
Overall the game is really solid. The biggest problem i think it has is that sometimes its just not possible to win, and other times its nearly impossible to lose. The algorithms you use to spawn the power supplies i think need work. Right now it seems like they're spawned almost at random. I had a few rounds where i could get the 1st power supply and then couldn't even reach it to the second one meaning there was no way for me to win. Other times I had gained so much speed that i could almost just stand completely still and collect enough power to go on for forever.
Otherwise the game is really solid and I think you could definitely turn it into a full game (possibly a mobile game? seems like what you're aiming for with this) :)
Really like this one. Graphics are great and I could see this being a mobile app. Power supply seems to be in fits and spurts as opposed to a constant stream which is different to the usual sort of play these games have. Just trying to coast in at 1km/hr to that next power pellet is exciting. My only suggestion would to be adding in a few obstacles (asteroids, UFOs, etc.) cause right now it is a bit easy. My highscore is 20502.710, but the only reason it wasn't higher was cause I got a little bored. Having something to dodge would liven it up a little. Sound also would have added a lot.
Overall Great Job!
Loved the graphics and controls were smooth. a bit dull after 8km :P
Beautiful graphics, but lacked a sound, if hone would be a good game for touchscreen phones.
Cool game, would work really well as a mobile game. Got to 7720 on my third try.
Very simple mechanics but its still very fun. I'd love to see more mechanics or obstacles in a future build. Great job!
nice little concept, really addictive.
Good game! I had a lot of fun playing it. There was an odd occasion where the power sources near the spawn were unreachable, causing me to inevitably lose having just started the game. Something should be implemented to avoid this from ever happening. However, this only happened once so I wouldn't worry about it to much. Although this did not affect my ability to play, I wished the game had sound or animation. I fell like it would make the game feel a little less rigid. Other than that, good job!
This game is super cute :) I love the graphics, it's really fun to play too, but it does get a bit repetitive after too long. I agree that sound would have made it just that much nicer! Great job, this is awesome!
I liked your art style a lot, and that starfield. Cool "classic" vibe here. It's nice that you aimed at a minimal gameplay. Would I liked some animation of the thrusted, and some music perhaps.
**First of all:** Thank you for your feedback and for checking out my game. Appreciate it!
**Overall game impression:** Pretty straight forward, classic and fun. I like the art style, it's very soothing and easy on the eyes. Very enjoyable and addicting game. Height measure is a nice touch, always cool to have a score. I got to 6500 only D: Well done! Nice and enjoyable
**Suggestions and comments on improvement:** Sound effects / background music would help a lot. Also changing controls to keyboard controls would be easier than mouse point and click I think. Or having both perhaps.
