Wow that was amazing when the moon eclipsed the sun! Like everyone is saying, the graphics are amazing. Gameplay wise though, I felt tutorialisation and indicators were a bit lacking. Like on my first run, I flew away from earth oblivious to what I had to do, then couldn't find my way back to the earth, there's no indicator pointing you in the right direction just a big expanse. And whilst I now see you can only have one upgrade at a time, I felt very ripped off after buying more and seeing I could only use one. Also with the missiles, after buying them I was firing them like crazy to play around with this new weapon... But then I ran out of ammo... And I hadn't even started the round yet... And it costed 1000 just to replace that ammo... I wish ammo restocked between rounds, even if it just restocked a few, because if I'd known about the limited ammo + pay to restock, I wouldn't even have bought that weapon, it seems like a bad investment where every shot is costing money. Idk tho, maybe it's a great weapon, but in my monkey brain paying to maintain a weapon is worse than paying to get new turrets on earth that I keep forever. I think you should at least not drain ammo during the prep phase, give players a chance to know the weapon without costing them.

I still quite enjoyed the game, though I don't think I got far, my gear was just too far behind cos of all the wasted money. The graphics were absolutely the highlight, and it is very impressive all the things you've made for the game in so little time!

I am just speechless about how good this game is. It has a lot of mechanics, powers and systems. It has the coolest lights, effects and particles. It feels polished and complete. I am just amazed. Really good job!!!

So much content for a game jam game and it is very well polished. 10/10 game

Game actually looks pretty decent seems like you started working on the project before start date though which is fine but should be mentioned somewhere because it seems unfair against other projects i've seen. But overall great game gg.
Would you like to rate mine aswell thanks!

That's a lot of work you did in 7 days and the results look incredible.  You even managed to implement ship and planet upgrades.  The visual effects are beautiful.  The sound effects were good.  Everything was so highly polished.  I don't know how you managed it!  

The difficulty curve seemed rather steep.  Games should start off easier and ramp up the challenge, otherwise you risk frustrating gamers.  Buying an upgrade removes the previous one, that should have been made clearer.

Overall, a very impressive entry.

I loved this game, it was fun to play and the graphics were really nice, especially the VFX, nice job!

Sometimes it felt like the blaster wasn't aiming properly at my cursor's position.

Also, spamming M1 seemed to shoot slower then holding M1. When there were a lot of asteroids all around me I didn't want to waist time on missing shots so I wanted to press M1 only after aiming at a specific asteroid but with it shooting slower that wasn't a very good strategy.

Very "complete" feeling. The upgrades are fun. The visual and sound effects of destroying asteroids is enjoyable

Fantastic entry to the game jam.

The graphics and the game mechanics are extremely impressive!
The particles, VFX, explosions, sounds! Wow! And amazing game feel.
You paid attention to so many details!
Your prior experience with space shooters and your 'sleepless nights' really paid off!
I didn't even know you could make such awesome games with Unreal Engine in such a short amount of time!

And to build complex mechanics to upgrade the space ship :O

This is amazing, especially for your very first game entry!
I have to say, unfortunately this game does not run very well on my PC, it's a bit laggy, might be due to my drivers and I couldn't get it to run smoothly. So I combined my playing with the videos I watched of it to form an opinion.

Even the title screen you created is amazing.

Very impressive, so congrats to you as well for the game!

The game is really pretty and I like the wave/upgrading system that gives you time to choose.

Regarding the visuals, I'd just like the big asteroids to have a better indication of which fragments are now actually harmful and which aren't. At first I thought the smaller ones were just particle effects but then learned the fragments can still damage Earth.

It was fun to destroy asteroids but it got too hard very fast, with asteroids coming up seemingly out of nowhere. I would feel rather safe by looking at the sonar protecting one side of the planet, only to discover there was already a swarm at the other side. Also, it's hard to control the ship's aim. For some reason it doesn't feel like fires where your mouse is pointing at. Could it be some sort of point tracing bogus with the cam? Especially moving, it gets really hard to hit precisely.

I really liked being able to upgrade the planet, but it seemed not very useful, especially against large asteroids. Also, the upgrading UI could use something like the ship upgrade, where it confirms after you choose. I clicked on some options for a city and had to keep looking at my credits to check if I really bought. It wasn't clear what they would do nor if I had managed to buy.

Regarding ship upgrades, I got a bit disheartened when I discovered upgrading the firing rate removed my upgrade of multiple shots. It could block the player from choosing one if he already got the other.

I couldn't make it past the first 4 waves, are there really invaders or is it always the asteroids? I didn't feel like it fit the theme if it was just some asteroids roaming towards the planet.

One real minor thing, when you lose, the game shows the "wave completed" UI, that felt very strange. I clicked on next wave but at least the buttons didn't seem to do anything. Also, regarding the game over, you could make the point count faster if the player clicks a button, it's boring to be forced to wait before trying again.

Overall it's a nice asteroids shmup. I really like the idea of weaponizing the planet!

Gorgeous Game! very good graphics, very good audio, very fun. 15/10

Amazing game! Incredible quality for a game made in a week. Love the graphics and sound design. The random soundbites fading in and out (from satellites or sth?) made me chuckle.

My only issue was that it was a bit laggy for me.

One of The Best Game In Game Jam I Really Like it 10/10

Amazing graphics! Love the visual style and look forward to future updates!

Very fun game! The graphics are really cool and the particles look amazing! The music feels very slick and cool. The gameplay is really fun and very enjoyable! The game is very replayable.

It was quite difficult though, but that just made it more fun.

Great job! :D

Awesome game! Great concept! Awesome graphics and effects! I love it! Good Job!

My potato PC wasnt able to let me play :(

I don't even know what to say, even though it was made within a week, this game is nearly perfect and I loved it a lot!

For feedback purposes, the minor issues I found were:

• Without a tutorial, it was kinda hard to fully understand the game in my first playthrough (for instance, I didn't knew I could hold the shoot button nor that the map indicated where immeadiate attention was required).
• The shop could have purchase confirm buttons and make it clearer that you can't use two upgrades of the same type at the same time.
• Difficulty starts hard but gets easier as the game progresses.
• If you lose and try to play again, the game behaves weirdly.
• If you beat the game and quit it, the game shows the game over message.

This is me beating the game after destroying over 4000 enemies, thank you for the fun I had! :D

Great game, great effects and well done and detailed UI system... All the best!
