Nice game! I'm a sucker for spacey things, so I guess I may be a little biased :) but it was fun!

Love the in-depth simulation of travelling in space, definitely going to continue observing space safely from the ground!
Kinda lot to learn for a game jam game. I think there it a lot potential. I also didn't like getting lost in space... maybe a trigger when you get too far away from the sun would be in order? I can't get back so why doesn't it just restart for me?
@josephdevelops thank you for your feedback, I agree there is a lot to learn, but its one of those games that take time to understand, it is of course - a space simulator. also getting lost in space is one of the many fun outcomes of exploring the vast universe, sarcasm aside - there is a restart button in the pause menu.
@jamie-simpson one the first level I am not sure if it is correct because I did a "stable" orbit and in time the spacecraft went to the planet. The second level seems ok and the physics felt more real. KSP is one of my favourite games and I got the KSP feeling :D not sure if you did the theme although when you orbit you are in a loop :) Great work and have fun! :)
@rgilpt thank you for your feedback!, not sure what you mean by the physics felt more real in the second level because its the same in every level. but alas I'm glad you took the time to play my game.
@jamie-simpson I think I know what was the problem: in the first level the planet orbit a sun that you can't see. That confused me.

Cool game! Controls were cool, and the fuel limitation made it a fun challenge. I agree that there may be a lot of learning to do, but I did not mind. Also, for some reason on level 5 I tried imaging the north stars but it was not increasing my percentage. I was able to image stars in the tutorial so I'm not sure why it did not work in level 5. Also I would like an indication of which levels I completed on the level select menu :) Overall very creative and fun to maneuver between planets.
@abdul-zakkar thank you for taking your time to learn my game, I will look into the problems you mentioned
Thanks for submitting your game for me to play on my livestream! Sorry for the dropped frame choppiness!
