This was a pretty comfy game. Fly around, occasionally shoot things...felt very much like an interactive screensaver over a game, but still a neat little romp nonetheless. I had a lot of fun headbutting the drones.

Will admit it feels like there's a bit of a shame there isn't a real overarching goal, after a while I was just flying around for the sake of flying around. But hey, sometimes you gotta relax.

Thanks for trying it out! Yeah I wanted to add some places so stop and talk to weird characters with a lil story but no timee

nice, i like it! feels like a great foundation of amazingly-smooth flight controls (seriously, just the act of flying around while just vibing feels nice) and surprisingly warm aesthetics (for how minimalist they are) to build more on top of :)

one thing i'd like is to have directional sound for the enemies - the red arrow alone is not always enough to tell where you're being shot at from. also, speaking of sound - i REALLY enjoyed the music. seriously, it adds so much.

Thanks! I'd like do something more with just flying around exploring but I'm not sure what yet :D

Great visual style and flight controls! I wasn’t the best at figuring out where enemies were from the radar, but the combat was secondary to the flight itself, to me.

This game proficiently builds a sense of mystery with very few tools, which is really impressive! I really enjoy the look of this game as well, it's right up my alley!

It did take me a while to understand the point of the purple portals.

Really enjoyed whizzing around and shooting down the occasional target. I like the mood and the minimalist style. And the music fits so well. Good job :)

Very nice! I remember playing games like this back in the day, Descent etc. I remember having a lot of trouble with orientating myself in those games but didn't experience that here. Either I am getting better at video games (unlikely) or you did a great job on the controls. Well done!

Love the flight controls and the environment! I never thought an actual FPS camera system could work for a spaceship game but you did it really well :)

One minor issue, at times it felt like my ship was automatically drifting towards the right without any input.

EDIT : It’s a problem with unity and firefox, I’m having similar problems in other games as well

I've been experiencing this issue with various games as well. Good to know!

Very soothing music and environment.

I liked flying inside a building for a while, then emerging and seeing the vast environment again. 

The controls were quite smooth as well, I expected to bonk into everything but that wasn't the case even in tight spaces. 

It gave me some Subnautica and Outer Wilds vibes, I now wish there were environments similar to this one in those games^^
