Impressive scope for a jam game! I couldn't really fly around for very long without getting motion sick, but I enjoyed walking around gathering crystals. Relaxing and enjoyable, good job!

Thank you @nick-baggett yeah the control are a bit sensitive, but we are so exhausted 😴
Very ambitious entry. I really loved the atmosphere, the audio and especially the art. Gameplay-wise i think it's lacking in terms of polish. I think this game spread itself a little too thin in terms of content. In any case, very good entry
Super impressed with all the different features and open-world feel. The controls are pretty hard to control and I was a little confused on where to go. Overall super interesting game.
Thank you @quinnster , yeah the control of the ship are a bit hard, but we are happy with the time we had :dog:
Really impressive scope! Absolutely wild you were able to accomplish this during the jam. Great entry. One of the few games I've played from the jam where I could see this being a full title. Awesome work :)
Very ambitious! The gameplay was unfortunately a bit tedious, but I can see it being rewarding with some polish and juicing! I absolutely LOVED the art, and found myself just walking around in the starting area for several minutes, just exploring the world! Very atmospheric, and loved all the details in the environment!
Scope was definitely too large, I'm guessing that's why no quests, BUT flying around and exploring by itself was a lot of fun to do! Wonderful atmosphere and polish. I can see why you're so proud of it! :smiley:
I really loved the art. Reminded me of Jet Set Radio! Gameplay reminded me of No Mans Sky, which I love. I think with some polishing and goals, this has lots of potential! The atmosphere definitely had me asking questions, about lore!
I loved exploring the map, while the game feels a bit unfinished, it had many interesting things that drag my attention, I fooled around the map for about 15-20 minutes exploring everything, love the sounds and graphic, really gives that sci fi atmosphere.
This game looks stunning. However, that's kind of the only thing going for it, unfortunately. There's basically no game right now. I might be dumb, but it took me a while to figure out what to do, and that I could mine the rocks with my laser. Even then, there's no point in doing that, because the game doesn't reward me with anything.
That's the thing about this, there's so much detail, so many places you can go, but you can't interact with anything. It gives the illusion of being so expansive, but it's not. It would have been better to just focus on one thing and make it well. It feels like you overscoped quite a lot, and it's kind of overwhelming. The first thing I did when I arrived at the landing pad was to try and go up the elevator. I was frustrated because I was looking for some button to go up, and found nothing. Why is that elevator there? Why can I go inside it?
So yea, I hope I'm not being too harsh, just keep this in mind next time. Don't fill the world with things that are just for show and run out of time for actual gameplay. Still, the game looks stunning, as I said. Amazing graphics, and the world is unbelievably detailed for a jam game. The controls are also really smooth and I was surprised at the complex collisions of objects such as the ship itself and that I could even walk on top of it. If you created some more gameplay with this it would be amazing! I hope you do after the jam is over.
As a 3D Artist, your assets are incredible, you did so much so fast that it is frightening and I am actually questioning myself haha. Joke aside, you did an incredible work, this sensation in the city or around this desert. I Simply loved it. It would have been cool to have somehow a menu but hey, you have already done so much. GG
The city was really cool to look at!
The models are really great, and some unexpected moments made me laugh out loud. Good game!
