This game was really pretty (woo, parallaxing) but I had a hard time finding the second ship part. Overall pretty neat - I'm always happy to see a space game with this type of movement. Nice work!

Ayy, another frog game! Honestly I had fun just flying around and crashing into things. The movement feels really good! Nice work.

This was a fun one. Loved the parallax, it adds a lot. Also the lights with additive blending in front of the ship. Controls felt smooth. Gathered 4 ship parts. I didn't see any space worms. Having an "end" of the space was funny :) I liked how you bounce away from the edge.

I think fuel consumption could be more forgiving. Turning the ship either shouldn't cost fuel or maybe should cost less. Braking as well... I think those are ugly ways to balance the game difficulty. After collecting 4 ship parts from each side(east,west,north,south). I didn't know what to do... I don't know how many parts I should gather. A simple 4/N text somewhere could be awesome.

Eventually, I went deeper into the space and found nothing no ship part indicators or anything and ran out of fuel. Felt bad and didn't want to play again when I lost after collecting 4 parts. Because it gets too repetitive to do the same thing over and over again.

Thanks for the game! <3
