Everything was on point! I appreciate how you could play the game as fast or slow as you'd like. You could all the time you needed to think about your next move or you could blitz though and win in a matter of seconds.

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, I noticed while I was playing myself that I wanted to move quick, especially on calmer segments, therefor I made sure to have quick animations that don't get in the way.

Submitted

It was fun puzzle game and graphics! good job. I am just questioning was there really two mechanic in it? Because we choose the next station as mechanic for both visiting stars and avoiding enemies

Developer

Thanks for playing!

There are definitely at least two mechanics, they are just very close nit together. You can think like this: Would there still be a "game" if one of them was removed? Yes, you could have a game without the enemy ships, just having to travel between the stars (although this wouldn't be fun). You could also have a game were the objective wasn't to visit all the stars, but rather survive for long enough or something else entirely.

You could also see the space stations themself as a mechanic, they aren't 100% necessary but add a lot to the strategic depth.

This is one of my favorite games that has been submitted so far.  The style is wonderful and the gameplay is unique and engaging. Great job!

Developer

Thanks for playing! I'm glad you liked it

this game reminds me of graph theories for some reason.

5 stars.

Developer

Haha thanks! I am certainly using some concepts from there

Submitted

This was a lot of fun! Good Job.

Developer

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it

Submitted

This is my favorite game so far.  Loved the look of it.  Loved the strategy.  So professionally done.  Really impressed.  Only problem, I couldn't get it to work on Safari and had to use Chrome.  Still, it was fantastic!

Developer(+1)

Hey, I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for the kind words. And yeah, I've heard Godot has some issues on Safari sadly.

Submitted

Love the style of this game, and the puzzle is well executed too. It's already the complete package!

Developer

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it

Wow, this game is so polished, nice cute story. Enjoyed playing this,

Also very good choice of music.

Please forward this message to the CEO

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Your feedback about Space paste will be forwarded to the chairman.

Glad you liked the music! It was my forth attempt at making a soundtrack for the game, the earlier ones didn't really fit so I retried until I settled for this Lo-fi style. One of my favorite songs I've ever made actually.

Submitted

Lo-fi is the best

Submitted

Very well made! Very relaxing
I got stuck on a un-winable situation when I had a single triangle at the corner with a signal, and a single enemy following me, i can just go back and forth in the same place or die :(

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! Yeah, the AI can be rude and annoying at times, even if I have put a lot of effort into making it feel fair. I could perhaps create a rule preventing it from moving back and forth too many times in a row.

Submitted

Waiting for app store release of this game!  I could never think of such a mechanic lol! So innovative. 

Developer(+1)

Thank you! My goal is to continue with the innovation and make something completely new again for next round :D

Submitted

cant tell what the second mechanic is but i love the artstyle and vibe and the moving animations and impact feel crisp and lovely, great game!

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

Thanks! The mechanics are listed on the game page. Main: avoid the ships Secondary: Explore the stars you visit, explore all stars to progress to next level. I guess it's harder to make out the mechanics when they are so closely nit together.

Submitted

Very cool game, excellent idea, it was fun to play

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Submitted

I love the changes you made to adjust the view range and ability to move to areas where enemies currently are. It makes the game feel smoother to play. Great job!

Developer

Glad the game logic changes helped! I didn't change the view range though :P Maybe that means it wasn't that big of an issue to begin with, which is good!

Submitted(+1)

Haha, after some testing, I found out that I got some random maps which looked smaller, making me think the view range was larger. Maybe the game logic change also affected how I perceived the view range. Anyway, it feels good after the game logic change. So it's not a problem .

Submitted

Extremely well designed game, kept me playing through the whole thing. That last level was tough but helped me figure out some good strategies for navigating the game mechanics. Glad to have contributed to the ever-expanding market for space paste 

Developer

I'm glad that you managed to find good strategies, and thank you for your contribution to the Space paste empire!

Submitted

I really enjoyed your game.

The feedback and response from every movement.. the stresses of getting closer and closer to the enemies. It really kept me enthralled.

Well done!

Developer(+1)

Hey, thanks for playing! I'm happy to hear that my game kept you engaged.
