The music transition upon escaping is so good! And the hi-def graphics are so impressive for a game jam! Well done.

I hope you don't take this the wrong way but I found this game really funny! My first experience was me not knowing what to press and seeing "You've EXPLODED!", then I checked the controls, held space and won. I expected there to be another level, but nope, that was it. Genuinely gave me a good chuckle so thanks for that :) As others have said, it definitely needed fleshing out a bit more. It doesn't necessarily need to be challenging or difficult, it just needs to feel like you're doing something and that there's some gameplay mechanics for the player to engage with in a meaningful way. Hope you don't take the criticism too harshly, you should at least be proud for finishing what you started and getting it submitted :)

everyone likes an epic escape! Though at the moment since it's a straight shot, just pressing space finishes the game. With some more obstacles and maybe checkpoints of different explosions I could see it being interesting.

Honest opinion: Great starter, but lacks any actual creative flair, using an overdone concept of ship escape in a short, simple, straight-shot escape sim. There's no challenge, no point, and more significantly, no replayability or enjoyability. "Hold space as soon as it loads to escape" is neither exciting or truly creative, nor is it truly game-worthy. I wish I could be kinder with this review, but the best part of this was the art and that wasn't much to look at either.

it's a web game, go to the game's page and wait for it load then you'll see a blue "Run Game" button
