Nice game especially for your first jam! I like the graphics and audio. It's one of those simple but addictive fun games so good job!
Great game! I ended up just exploring and jumping around without doing the objective so I can't say anything about the objective. The mechanics on the other hand are great, it's fun to simply explore and jump around.
Nice game! I like the gameplay, mechanics, and graphics.
A couple suggestions: - Add sound to the game? It doesn't have to be music but for example tire sounds, phone sounds, etc. - The vehicle feels a little loose when turning. I find myself crashing at some turns.
A couple small issues: - The ship is a little small - The ship spins quickly making it hard to control
Other than those small issues though the game is nice. I also like what you said in the first reply which was that you took rocks from your garden for the asteroids. That's really cool using rocks in your backyard then modifying them for your own asteroid assets.
The combination of the graphics and audio are very nice and suit each other well. The pixel art is cool and the game mechanics feel very smooth. Overall nice game!
Nice game! I saw it get reviewed on a stream yesterday. The retro graphics are very nice and the audio suits it well. The controls confused me in the beginning but after that it was simple.
The game is good as a base game which can be expanded on. If sound could be added into the game itself plus more game mechanics that would be great. Other than that nice game and some expansion can make it great!
I like the graphics! The pixel based graphics look really good in this type of game. One minor issue though is I'm so used to the WASD controls in games so having arrow keys only feels a little strange. Maybe you could add support for WASD as well and change the "Accept Order" and "Collect / Deliver" to something else? Other than that small thing the game is really nice, great job!
A simple suggestion while playing that I noticed is you could add a button (R button maybe?) so the player can restart in the middle of the game. The game also says "too optimistic" for multiplayer but maybe you could do an update with that? Multiplayer would be awesome for this game. Either way nice game especially for your first complete game! Here is my high score: high_score.png
The game mechanics and graphics are nice. I always like games based around space like this. If you increased the difficulty slightly more that could make the game even more fun. Other than that great game!
Great game! The game reminded me of Angry Birds. The graphics, audio, and mechanics are well polished. I like the level system it adds a goal to continue getting higher levels.
This is one of games that are simple yet very addictive. Reminds me of those idle farming games I play on mobile. I did a lot of upgrades but they ended up getting unhappy and the game ended which was unfortunate but all apart of the game haha. Anyways great game I see you put a lot of effort into this!
Nice game! I like strategy games like this. The graphics are nice. It took a little for me to understand how to play but other than that great game!
Super interesting and fun game. One issue I noticed though is the vehicle kept driving when I jumped off and I couldn't get back on as the ramp for the vehicle did not come down and my character was still moving with the vehicle direction even though I was not on it. I don't know if that's intentional? Either way great game I see you put a lot of work into it!
It was a little confusing initially but I still had fun. The graphics and mechanics are nice.
This is impressive, nice work! I've always liked card games and you did this one right.
The game is fun. It's very similar to Angry Birds which I like. Nice work!
Nice work on the game! Like others stated though I also had a hard time initially figuring out the controls but other than that the game is nice.
I was not expecting that 😆 5/5 for comedy.
Nice submission for your first game jam! The game has nice mechanics and everything runs well while playing.
Nice game! I like the game mechanics and the music. I see you put a lot of effort into this.
Nice game! I like the simplicity and mechanics.
Nice game! The driving feels a little tough but the core game is nice with good graphics.
Awesome game! I like the design of space. The feel of the ship is a little weird but other than that nice game.
I like the graphics. Overall the gameplay feels nice. Good work!
The game is fun. I see you put a lot of effort into it. Good graphics and music. Nice work!
The game is nice with nice graphics. Especially with how this was your first game ever. Great work!
Nice work on the game! One minor issue though is the window size is very small but other than that nice work.
The game feels a lot like a mix between Terraria and and Super Mario which is nice. I like the graphics and details put into everything. Nice job!
The game feels and looks a lot like Minicraft made by Notch which is nice. One minor issue I found when starting off was when I walk into a pink flower the icon of the flower shows the background of the flower image. I tested this same issue with the other stuff like the trees and that issue doesn't happen. Other than that minor graphical issue good work!

This was complete chaos (in a good way). Non stop action, had fun!
