I was able to colonize a couple planets but was confused why every other planet i tried said i was too far way. The visuals look good and i love the transitions from the star map to the system view to the planet view. This is pretty neat though! Nice job :)

Love the concept and was really excited to play it, but the background makes it hard to read the foreground text, and I was only able to colonise about 4 or so systems before it seemed like I "ran out" out nearby worlds - I wonder, is that the point?

Bravo for an interesting take on the theme.

JM-Janzen, You totally guessed the idea)

Hey @trizalio,

idea of the never ending expanding universe is nice. It reminds me of a video made by the science channel Kurzgesagt about this topic. It's about the fact that we will be in the future alone and are not able to know if there are others stars, because they are moving away from us.

My browser window was too small to fit in the whole game, so i had to scale out a bit - maybe make the width and height of the window a bit smaller. I was confused what to do, but figured it out at some point in time. Visuals are quite nice, sure there is much to do. For such UI heavy games the UX and especially the feedback must be on point to resonate with lots of players.

Keep on going and next time your game gets more visible! :v:

It's really polished and the way you tackled the prompt was very novel!

This game seems like it has so much potential, it's really impressive! I think it could have benefitted from having some sort of visual for stars that have been visited/colonized, and also I don't know if it's possible, but I would have liked to queue several ships to travel out in different directions, together. But that stuff is really hard to fit into a jam so, amazingly well done!

I took advantage of this offer myself and was satisfied with everything.
