Great game, really love your theme interpretation!

This is a really unique idea, but man, brutal difficulty. I die within seconds of hitting start :(

I really like the look and mood of the game! Good stuff, you should keep working on it.

Really enjoyed this! solid graphics, interesting gameplay, I was pretty bad at it, managed to kill a few enemies though! Excellent job :smiley:

I love the visuals and your interpretation, the console control is cool but, dammit! I'm very bad to playing it :S

Just awesome, it very unique idea, fun but hard. Graphics looks nice, the game seems to be very polished.

Great game, but I didn't see any badguys! I followed the red line but never came across andy bad ships

@peredom Did you enter "start" in the console to start the game?

I have the same idea some time ago but not about input only, but about all game interface. Very good!

I really liked the idea! NOW.. integrate this with a twitch bot and let a chat of people all take control of the ship and I think something special might happen ;)

Very interesting, very interesting. But I couldn't shoot the damn bastard down, yet, not even once :) I guess I'm lame or it was flying around too fast.

Neat little game. I think I spent more time configuring my bindings than playing, though that was strangely satisfying. I managed to kill 2 ships before running out of power, but I was not very efficient in my systems disabling.

Such a nice idea, the game it's aim to a specific public that is into commands and stuff. I was able to kill like 3 enemies before I run out of power. It was fun to play.

Great Job!!

Figured out a neat trick - just do "burn 1000" and you can use "toggle thr" to toggle the thrusters on/off :D

Anyway, cool idea. I think you could expand upon this. For instance, you could add a delay command that would allow you to program more complex maneuvers, firing in patterns etc.
