Very nice game from the sfx to graphics it’s just so fun and I love it very much. Pls play and rate my game if u have time

I couldn't run this properly because of my crappy laptop so I'm mostly rating based on what I've seen and the little bit i managed to play.

For GDevelop, this game is genuinely amazing in terms of graphics, i didn't know stuff like this was possible yet it is and it's absolutely beautiful. i really really love the UI and the music, you did very good with this :D I love space exploration and this game lets you basically do just that! However since i didn't play it much i don't really understand the gameplay a lot but that aside, might be one of the best games on this jam in terms of looks holy moly, great job man!! :D

Developer

Soon, you will be able to play it on crappy laptop

Very well made game. It is really impressive!

Damn! This is seriously a AAA kind of game. Hats off to you for making this within 9 days. Great work. 

I mean I don't have anything else to say, the UI is good, the music is subtle and good, the game is breathtaking and gives me "Starcitizen" game's vibe. 

Developer

thank you for the kind words! im in active development with better planet design

Good work for 9 days! I think some work on the SFX would make it even better!

Cool game! Flying in space is really fun and the fuel stations are funny. Good job!

The game has a lot of freedom, and flying around in space feels great.

Chasing after the station just to refuel was honestly hilarious 😭
Overall, it was really fun!

Developer

I'm glad you like it! Active development is under way. Planets will soon be walkable (they will not be true seamless tho. Cutscene onto a new scene that will be the planet surface. I'm not a wizard yet 😭

I really loved the sense of exploration and wonder - the scale is truly impressive, and the wonderfully crafted music and sounds aids greatly in that.

I found the ship controls to be rather clunky and unintuitive and the gameplay to be rather repetitive, but this was remedied by the previously mentioned qualites.

Overall, really, really great job on this! I loom forward to your future endeavours!

A really awesome game I'd say, pity it doesn't have mobile controls. It is by far the most polished and content optimized game I've seen on the jam. The creator must be on strong caffeine if they finished it in 9 days.

Definitely was, I have deep insomnia to begin with and haven't slept more than 5 hours in like a decade, I am used to it. It's unfortunate on my health, but very good on my learning and creating. I spend more time on my hobby than my job.

Submitted

That's sad to hear. But I'm glad you weren't pulled down by it.

Developer(+1)

I mean 5 hours a day. Not 5 hours total 😭 but I think you understand that. But yeah, I love game dev

Submitted(+1)

that looks really good, didn't know what the engines potential was really until i saw this

Developer

You can do anything in this engine. It's rough around the edges but you can do basically anything and everything

Submitted(+1)

had no idea you could make things like this in gdev amazing graphics especially for a 3d game

Submitted

This is a mechanically impressive game that shows a lot of potential, hope to see more of it in the future!

Developer

thanks brother! going to improve!

Liked:

  • Graphics, obviously this is pretty impressive.
  • UI, looks very sleek.
  • flying around is generally pretty fun
  • Making something of this scope is very ambitious.

Would improve upon:

  • A bit of audio feedback would go a long way. A little blip when you get a part would make it clear when you got it or not. A gas tank filling noise when refuelling, etc.
  • I would have liked the option to have the controls on screen at all times, given it's quite a complex game.
  • Really try to make the objective clearer to the player. 
Developer

These are very fair criticisms. Thank you for playing! Those will be the goal when I flesh out an actual demo!

It was a lot of fun to try. I couldn't grab the last item for some reason, though, and it took me a minute to realize the fuel was on the stations and not the planets (UI was a little misleading). I love the idea, though: it felt like I was in space the whole time,  the menu was fantastic (a little dizzy lol), and the music in the background matched perfectly.

Developer

Thanks for the kind words. I did find out that my win state is bugged and the repair station doesn't repair the ship when you get all 10 parts, so it's more of a flight sim/mini adventure for 10 mins. The super ova explosion is cool tho ;)
