Really interesting story! I would love to see this expanded on beyond the game jam :)

Controls are nice and exploring the level is great. I also like the music. The intro and story is well done, but I think that stopping the game when new messages appear disrupt the flow a bit. Overall good job!

Cool game :) With a bit of practice, controls become pretty enjoyable! But for some reason the death SFX startles me a lot every time :') Sadly I didn't go through the end (although I suspect I wasn't far), I died once too often during that part in the lvl3 after the "asteroid field" where you have to go through a very tight gap among 4, and I think I ended up finding the right one but then the death FX startled me again and I had to stop ^^' Good job anyway :)

I really like the movement of the ship, pretty easy to get into it.

I agree that the controls are very tight! And the music is super moody! I think a bug prevented me from reaching the end... or I just didn't find the exit. I really want to know what happened =D

The contorl of the "plane" is tricky but fun. I like floating around in any direction I like. The sound really create a special atmosphere for the game. Good work man!

Wow, kudos for the Rust language!

The idea of the tutorial-like narrative during the intro and the story overall is really great! But I agree that pauses for the messages was maybe a bit too long?

Controls felt really good. Nice job. :)

@fedorl You hit enter to dismiss the messages, so the pause is as long or short as you want it to be. 😊 But I agree that they interrupt the gameplay too much. But showing them while the game plays would make it hard to read them, was my thinking.

I'm glad that so many people like the controls!

Cool aesthetics and overall game-feel. Ship movement feel 'right' -- I feel like I'm actually piloting something. Also world exploration + narrative feels good.
