It's a flex that you built this in Rust/Geng. The game is very well made, and the main planet looks absolutely lovely.

My only real gripe is that the connection to the countdown theme feels a bit loose. Since it's just tied to a timer before the satellites launch, you don't really interact with it, also wish there were more stakes or a management aspect tied to allowing a lot of satellites in orbit. It’s also quite short, but what is there is honestly great. Still, an incredibly solid technical achievement and a fun clicker.

Nonetheless, enjoy my 1000 satellite masterpiece (browser was chugging)

A neat clicker game, although it’s really short despite being open-ended since the tech tree is pretty small.

By the end of it I was trying to cause Kessler syndrome, but only semi-succeeded since I had a few debris-cleaning satellites up, sad. I did get about 200 debris, but the lag from having 800 satellites got to a point where I just couldn’t replenish the satellites fast enough.

maybe this is just because I used the web build, oops.

Fellow planet-themed clicker game!! I really, really enjoyed this one, much more than I expected. Such a simple game on the surface, but the execution is really done so well. I love the visuals of this, the sort of 90s windows aesthetic and the crt shader, and the 2d+3d look for the planet, just really cool, plus the music and sound effects just tie everything together. I got embarrassingly far and had debris wipe out all my satellites multiple times (because clicking each one was pretty tricky once the chain reaction started) before realizing I could unlock rockets to clean up the atmosphere, so that was something, but the gameplay went a lot smoother after that lol. Really enjoyed how it was more than just a typical clicker game - had to balance the number of satellites to manage collisions while still getting as much science as possible. I can see a lot of opportunities to expand this game to have more strategy elements which I think would be really cool, and would definitely come back to this in the future. Super clean, and an impressive level of polish for the time limit. Great work!!

I would love to see you expand on the orbital debris management! To me, that is what makes the game stand out. Although, it is fun to reach the end of the tech tree and then just spam satellites!

Wow, I really enjoyed this game! Got all the upgrades. The earth visual, the satellites, rocket launching with the slight crt - absolutely nailed the feel and art. Love the game feel and that upgrades can be felt and work well. At the end of the game it really makes me want more. Absolutely lovely entry!!
