* big thing - some way of rotating the objects before you attach them... or something. would be great. it was really hard to try to setup any sort of 'flyable' ship with the parts you get provided. * graphics were great (go kindred) * would be nice to be able to 'zoom out' after your ship get bigger, got to a point were my ship covered 50% or so of the vertical space on the screen.

Nice space physics game. Had fun building my space ship and collecting crew members.
Great game! Had so much fun playing it :D
Fun game, even if it is a little frustrating sometimes. We need a better way to turn the ship!
Wow. Really good one. Great art and gameplay. It's a bit challenging perhaps. The building part is super fun so I wish I would find more parts to build my ship with. :D
Lots of fun! I loved the emergent situational humor of things like honking every time I use a thruster or accidentally tearing apart my own space ship with an ill placed gun :D It was really hard to control but that's probably because I built my ship like a total idiot haha Great game overall, really enjoyed it.
This is a great entry!
I do think it is missing a big element that could make it go from great to fantastic - the ability to rotate items before placing them, and possibly some way to remote items once they have been placed. It is far too difficult to consistently collect the crew if steering is impossible at the start since you can only go in one direction with a single thruster. Nonetheless, this game was very fun to play, and the neat little screenshot feature was an amazing addition.

very good art and it reminds a lot of lovers in a spacetime plus impact mechanics and something a bit katamari like .. hard to describe ..
its going awaaay
A very fun game, I love the voice overs, they break up the silence nicely with funny comments. The chaotic nature of the game is very fun! However, the game needs more gnomes. Also didn't see any goats. Might want to work on that
This was a lot of fun! I really liked the artstyle :) It was lots of fun flying around at speed especially with lots of guns and horns attached :D Great work!
I like that you can just add random stuff to you ship and end up with something like this

The game looks really polished!
i really like the flat colors in your design!
I love the art here and tons of humor, great, fun game!
Loved the art and concept of the game, music is fitting. Had fun playing it.
Decent vector art and fantastic concept. The game is so polished and well made. Relaxing physics game! I wish there are more ship building parts and more obstacles other than boulders/asteroids.
Wow, a great project! Really atmospheric, nice art and music and clever idea. I ended up not really using the cannons - jumppads and the (indestructible?) plus blocks are just way more effective while cannons destroy your own blocks. Maybe destroying asteroids could give you points as well. Some bigger parts to attach to your ship would also be nice.
I would buy this game if there was more content ! Really enjoyed it ! Remembered me katamari good time :)
Nice concept, fits the theme fairly well, can you change the direction of the thrusters before you add them to your ship or are you stuck with the orientation that they come in? the music fits really well, nice job!
this game was lots of fun -- i agree with others that adding rotation to the pieces would help alot -- thanks for making this
I had so much fun with the game. It took a while for me to understand what I had to do, but this is called "intellectual disability." A game that deserves to be developed for something bigger in the future. For sure!
Congratulations for the game!
This is our game: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/45/soundscapes
I've already play this kind of games on this LD, however, your game if the best. Polished art, fine movement, adequate difficulty. The only thing I miss is the fourth engine.
That's what I'm talking about! If this game doesn't secure a top spot something is seriously wrong (or people just have a wieldly different taste in games than me)
The only things I noticed is that there is a barely noticable visual artifact with the bouncer and the game just doesn't end.
But maaan I would give it 6 Stars if I could :D Great game, thanks for sharing!
Good relaxing space disaster fun! I see that a lot of others are saying you should be able to rotate parts before attaching, but I think it is better how it is where you end up with things not quite how you want them! It would be too easy if you had more control. It's too easy to play indefinitely though, I rescued 25 crew and could easily have kept going. Basically once you've got a thruster of each colour spaced approx. 120 degrees apart, the ship is flyable.
Slaying it, nice work you lot!
