Hi ! Interesting game, I feel like it would almost work text based as well. The system you have already allows further content and mechanics to be implemented. A tension exists ! I like the heart beat and bip. Just needs more feedback when object are found, etc. Good work !
I tried about 8 times. I got 25 metal, but never got close to the 15 electronics needed. I didn't feel like the drill helped me! very thematic. Good job!
Wow! This is really cool! Music was fantastic; very atmospheric and evoked the mood of "dread" and "impending doom" very well. Crafting system was great and visuals were very good! The UI really gave off the feeling of being in control of a space ship. Some sound effects would have assisted in enhancing the immersion.
Great work! :)
I keep clicking a planet (so the dotted line appears) and then clicking Travel but nothing happens and I get sucked into the blackness... am I doing something wrong?
Hey @jamison , in the instructions you can read that you need to start by crafting a Ship Repair Kit, try that. Thanks for checking out my game!
I didn't quite figure this out, but the look was really cool. Some clearer instructions might help.
Tried the game out. The music was pretty matching with the theme. I tried to get a highscore and failed. Could use some clearer instructions, though.
Hi @arcadonauts, the instructions should be rather clear now. Thanks for trying my game!
You really get a mood in this game, and it's quite challenging! Well done!
figured out after awhile how to play but would have loved some instructions, nice submit score function
Instructions are on the second column from the right! (Took me a while to find them :D) Really enjoyed the atmosphere, the music and the challenge!
I took me a while how to play the game. it is definitely fun in a strategies way. the game theme fits as well for this gamejam
Very confusing, not exactly sure what I was supposed to do.
- something completely different them most games - the strategic part about it is very nice
- It's kinda hard to grasp the first few times.

yay! top 10! awesome concept dude! at first I was confused at what to do as the information was overwhelming. Once I got the hang of it, it was ez pz. NIce sfx as well. A sountrack would be a great addition to this already awesome game. good job!
A really nice game!
In the first round directly on the 2nd place in the highscore ... Well, maybe it was about 100 laps ... :D
But sure it is really good, and fun! :)
I wish you great success!
Very well designed around given theme! First couple tries it was rather difficult for me to grasph the mechanics. For me it was a bit too many resources to see and manage in the short amount of time the level offers you. Playing was quite fun and held me quite some trys :)
Nice, any tips on how to get the electronics? Do different coloured planets give certain stuff or something?
IF YOU ASK FOR INSTRUCTIONS : you can see a hugh pack of letters that explain the game, i am just saying to help you all :)
Nice little game dude. You took a risky path by making a “table” oriented game, however I think this unique choice paid the price, your concept remain memorable, however you know how hard are this type of game to play without a proper -integrated- tutorial. Overall, good job.
Really liked all the mechanics at play in this one! Love the procedural solar systems keeping things fresh when you fail. Thanks for sharing your game with my stream! The vod of your game is here: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/297479036?t=53m25s
