very nice and cosy! i couldn't figure out how to trade but i made it home anyway. i liked it a lot!

Developer

U may have got unlucky as everything is randomly generated and vendors are too but yeah once you find the traders it will tell you

This is absolutely amazing for a game made in such a short timespan, I dig the graphics that blend so nicely with everything else. I find the vendor section to be too boring especially when I don’t have 5 gold with me at the start nor do I have enough fuel.

Really wish there were asteroids around too to spice up the travel. The idea of not everything is out to kill you and requires provocation before they could attack you is splendid and adds life.

For that this Game gets great ratings from me.

Thank you for the kind words! we had lots of other ideas we could of added and one was asteroids flying around that could hurt you just the time limit and the amount of bugs we had to focus on fixing stopped us from that. We are happy you liked the game! =D

Nice game, loved the artwork and the music. The gameplay felt a little lackluster but it did keep my attention until the end and I enjoyed it

Developer(+1)

well thanks for the play and the review fair enough with more time more features and mechanics would have been added but we focused on polish and bugs at the end have a good day :)

Submitted

Great work.

It would be nice if you can fire by keeping the mouse button down.

Developer

Thanks for playing and yeah thats something we could add in future

Submitted

This game is extremely polished and fun to play, even though I generally don't like space shooters.

Developer

I loved the mechanics and the movement, and the pixel art was lovely! I enjoyed all the different types of planets. I felt bad destroying them for gold!

Developer(+1)

Submitted

Indeed a very fun to play game. Game feel is amazing and cool mechanics.

Developer

Thank you for the review and kind words!

Great little space shooter with a cosy art style.

It wasn't initially clear to me that I could kill the other (particularly larger) spaceships for fuel and health. Maybe parts need to fall off enemies as they lose health, so that it's clear that you're damaging the ships rather than just hitting them.

I encountered an odd issue where my screen was tinted red (perhaps I made something hostile?). Then on retry that red tint remained.

Also a big fan of the menu selection screen.

Developer

Thank you for the review! agreed something like enemy health bars would of been a good fit. We are really not sure on what could cause that bug no part of the game has a red tinted screen to show. Do you know what part of the game that happened was it when you died or was hit? and thank you for the kind words have a good day!

Submitted

It might've been caused by me shooting at a planet? Definitely wasn't caused by me dying as I flew around for a bit with the tint there.

Submitted

Cool main menu, cool idea.
