I had a blast playing. The build and upgrade aspect is really well done. Also, the movement of the ship is pretty good and adds to the game as a skill based reward for mastering how to correctly move around threats. Accessing the shop by clicking a button in the corner while trying to avoid enemies might be the only problem I had (maybe there is a key input to open it, but I might have missed it). But nonetheless, this was an amazing experience.

Put Them On The Scale!Ship building and upgrading are done very well. Visuals and sound effects are really cool too. But i had to replay it couple of times due to dying in just 3 hits in the beginning. I think lowering the diffuculty for the beginning of the game could improve the experience a lot. I also felt like astroids spawn too close to the player, i could see them popping up in the screen while going with full speed and this makes them hard to dogde due to the movement or the size of the ship so maybe spawners could be further away.
Overall a great and well polished game that could assist player in the beginning to smooth out the overall diffuculty, great job!

My room from outer spaceFun game, I love the mechanics for upgrading ships. The difficulty is just right for me

UnderGardenThe upgrade system in this game is fire! Very detailed and polished for a 4 day jam. The first time I upgraded my ship, I didn't add any thrusters, so I couldn't move anymore and died in like 3 seconds, ha ha. I feel that there is potential for a lot of depth with the endless possibilities of the upgrade mechanics. Also loved the art style. Every sprite and UI element looks so polished. Great job!

Mushroom WarriorsPolished game, neat artstyle, I love building and customizing my ship! Maybe a little bit too punishing, but great game!

Slimer the ClimberI found it a little too punishing ! I died very quickly, very fast.
The game is really great, though. Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the shop or do I have to click on it (making my ship move towards a potentially dangerous place) ?
I'll play one or more games, it was very fun !
I would change the pointer when the shop-mode is active to make it very clear we're in shop-mode.

Echoes of the TribesFun and very hectic game! The presentation was top-notch. If I were to nitpick, I think too much happens too quickly in the beginning. But aside from that, this was an amazing game. Good job!

Plenty of FishVery fun game, reminds me of Nimbatus if you've played that on Steam.
I just wish health packs didn't get destroyed by bullets. Hard to steer towards them and not shoot directly at them and kill them.

World EaterI kept running into the asteroids, but the visuals and upgrade system is really fun to play! nice work!

5-Shot Whacky GolfThe small details like the screen shake when you get hit are a fantastic touch!

Cheek-A-BooSuper super fun game! It's really satisfying to build up a super advanced ship and pilot it around. I didn't realize there were upgrades too, but that added a lot more as well. I think it would be nice if there was some sort of increased FOV or warning for obstacles off screen -- it feels like sometimes the asteroids spawn inside of you and there's not much you can do about it

Divide and ConquerReally, really stunning. Absolutely loved the art and sound design. The game might be a bit too hard at the beginning, which was somewhat frustrating, but it's probably just a matter of balancing things out. Extremely polished nevertheless and has pretty much infinite potential!

Sunset SwingWOW, this game is so awesome. Can't believe you guys made such a captivating and cool game in just 4 days. I also appreciate the fact that you have a guide section inside of the game instead of just relying on the itch page, something a lot of other games could do aswell. Also to point out the obvious, the game is very difficult. But its fun once you get more upgrades.
