Post-jam update

Carve Your Name Among The Stars
A browser game made in HTML5

Hi! I'm flattered there's some folks who seemed to enjoy this game. I've just released a post-jam update with some extra polish—notably, a slightly bigger and prettier galaxy.

If you played this but didn't quite finish the story then you might enjoy taking another look. (There is actually a narrative with an ending! I realized that might not be clear.)

It uses some unusual rendering techniques to be able to handle tens of thousands of planets. I've tested it on a macbook pro with FireFox and Chrome, but if you run into performance issues with your particular OS/browser combination I'd love to know about it.

Not sure if this project is "done" yet or not—there's still a few improvements I could make, but I may drift on to other projects.
