Couldn't play for long enough to see everything but this is extremely impressive work for such a small time frame. Great work i'm coming back to play this one properly!

The game’s visuals look great—it’s polished but lacks a sense of direction. Always ensure to include in-game hints, as not all players read the story or lore. Overall, you did great! With some visual polish for the ship, this game could turn into an atmospheric space survivor experience.

Maybe I'm missing the point, but where does the "overpowered" theme factor in? Congrats on the sound design. It is top notch. Probably the best I've seem in the games I checked.

It is in the overarching story of the game, protecting the earth from the sun's solar flare leading to it overpowering the planets electrical grid and destroying the planet :) Thank you 😊

Seriously, how did you manage to pull this off alone in so little time?!

epic opening cutscene, it really sells the rest of the game! The ship feels really nice to control, and the big space abyss really adds some immersion! You did fantastic, hope to see you in next year's jam!

Nice game but missing a few assets as i seen a few GD icons and not sure what I was missing.

For the time you had it is a great achievement, Well done!

Sorry to hear you was missing some assets, this is an issue that should not have happened, if you could tell me when this happened in the game I'd really appreciate it but I understand if you don't and appreciate your comment.

After all the text intro the game starts and i see 3 GD icons. I tried the game 3 times and it happen 2 times. (not sitting thru that wall of text a 4th time. Maybe add a skip button?)

They appear on the ship icon and icons top right.

In just the small amount of time you had to make this, you pulled it off really well! Being able to sling shot using a planet's gravitation pull was awesome! Slowing down when reaching the asteroid belt was tough but I managed! I highly recommend anyone that sees this; to at least try! Bit of a learning curve, but you feel accomplished once you figure out how everything works!

You've done a lot in the time that you had! I've rated :)
