Cute music. The silloutte art is nice, and the background customization was a nice touch. The web build seems a little buggy.. couldn't harvest unless I was a bit to the left of the object, and planting again didn't seem possible.. clicking everywhere and trying all hot keys wouldn't let me do anything and I got stuck.
Played the web build and I liked the simple but effective graphic style. It is a very addictive game even if I couldn't go past planting and harvesting the first kind of triangular tree. But I liked very much the idea and would play a further devlopment of this one!
Interesting game. I included it in my Ludum Dare 45 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/zqhSjSyg75I
Pretty cool game. I did not expect leave in a rocket, that was cool. I also did not experience any bugs. Good jam job!
Background customization was cool, I like the art style and the music. nice idea for the theme good job
Nice game, i really enjoyed the silhouette graphics combined with the customizable background. I was very confused the first time i played because i accidentally built all of the buildings on the same place and clicking once did multiple things.
Really liked the art style and how you exit in a rocket. It could sometimes be a bit tricky to get the trees to harvest though - It would sometimes take a few presses to get it to work.
I like the minimalistic design, the background song was well-made. It was however, not looped in the Desktop version, I think. So towards the end the silence was a bit awkward. P for planting was good to remember, but a bit awkward to reach on the keyboard, since one hand had to be at the mouse. I enjoyed playing with the colour slider, the build up of the environment was well paced.
Wow! I managed to beat your game and finish in rocket! Not from the first try, nor from the second. ))) Make sure that player is unable to place buildings on top of each other, otherwise UI gets to messy.
I really liked the simplistic design of the art, fits really well, and the music is beautiful (Web build didn't loop, though... Don't know if it's a bug, or inteded). My only complaint was the key bindings, as I found myself cycling between different parts of my keyboard, and my mouse. Overall is a really fun game, good job!
A pretty simple crafting entry with decent audiovisuals.
It definitely could use some UI and gameplay improvements. It's not explained in the game itself that the mine and oven have to be clicked to produce resources, so I spent a while trying to get the mine to work (it especially contrasts with the game clearly hinting that e.g. spacebar is used for harvesting etc.). Other thing I noticed is that I didn't actually spend the ore on metal nor the metal on engine parts. After trying out the different buildings, I built the rocket and completed the game.
Overall, the game needs more polish in terms of user interaction and mechanics. Most importantly the gameplay needs to be redesigned - especially since I could built a rocket with no engine parts, so just spamming the ore and then metal leads me to endgame, making the auto-spawner and engine parts redundant.
Life-Off Achieved!
Nice entry - a very chill peaceful mood encouraged by the background and silhouette art style which was very effective. I liked that it didn't explain too much, just enough for me to bootstrap and explore the systems myself. Liftoff was at about the right time, when I had explored what the game had to offer but it had not overstayed its welcome and dragged on.
Nice work!
