The art is just so very good. The color pallete is just nice to look at, and the fact that it changes when inside or outisde the ship is a nice touch. The player walking animations are soo smooth too... 👀However I do agree that the game feels very slow and a bit repetitive, and I couldn't get through to the ending... Otherwise a very polished experience . Good work!

thank you so much!! :3 (especially on behalf of the artist, i just told him to come look at all these comments, im sure he will be very pleasantly surprised)

it's true that the gameplay is somewhat tedious - after the jam ends we will try to update the game and combat that :D

I'm absolutely in love with the artwork!!

However, i agree with other commenters: 1. I've also gotten lost and died and there wasn't an option to replay, 2. the intro is very fitting for overall atmopsphere of the game, but it's sooo slow >< i read it with great pleasure, but my reading speed is way faster than it moves, i wish there was smth like an accept button after each line, 3. the game loop does get a bit repetitive, and it gets boring to search all over the place without any upgrades at all

But I would TOTALLY play this game if it was longer and had more content.

thank you for the feedback!! :D

these 3 things are definitely stuff we will fix after the jam (along with adding sound effects and possibly more music); also more content will be added to the map to make it actually enjoyable to play for a longer time!

also thank you for the nice words - i'm glad you like the idea and hope you'll be able to play the updated version later! :33

Really nice art and fun idea on the theme. However the gameplay loop felt tedious after a while, fill tank, go out in new direction, hope you find fuel and return. Especially with the bug where the soundtrack didn't loop. Suggestion/ideas: some more player control on the situation like a air-powered dirtbike (they exist!), map of visited places, resource scanner to give a direction, ability to replant trees for harvest.

thank you for the feedback!! it's very true, the map is quite barren and we will definitely add more content to it later :D

however i only thought of adding more stuff on the actual map and not - like you said - things to give the player more control; these are amazing suggestions and will come in very useful :3

Great game — I really liked the art! I’m a big fan of resource management games myself :)

thank you! (especially on behalf of the artist!) :D

The music is so cool. Great interpretation of the theme. I'm shocked to say but, I actually really enjoyed the status report thing at the start, when I'm usually quite bored at just text.  The only thing this game is missing is some sound effects, for example picking up resources, entering shuttle, and walking. Another thing, idk if it was a one off, but I lost my spaceship and died in my first playthrough, but it didn't restart, so then I had to sit through the text section at the start again which was a bit annoying. Otherwise great game, well done!

Developer(+1)

thank you so much for the kind words and feedback, will be very useful :33

im glad that you enjoyed the text thingy!! i agree you should be able to skip/fastforward it; and as for the sound effects, that is one of the main things we didn't have enough time for, and we will definitely add them later :3
