Really like the music and the gameplay idea. Looks like a riff on the GameDev mobile game tutorial game, which I made as well! But, you've added that nice menu. I think with some polish there's an interesting thing going on here, and I can see this sucking people in on mobile. Keep up the great work!
Oh, and the music is great.

2D Leagues Under the SeaLove the music and it was very satisfying moving the spaceship around.

Frecko's AdventuresVery cool game! The music and gameplay loop is very relaxing, almost lost track of time playing it. The sizing of the WebGL frame made it hard to fit onto my screen, I had to zoom-out chrome to 75% but aside from that I had no issues. It'd be interested to revisit if you ever expanded upon it, maybe some ship upgrades or additional hazards? Anyway, you did a great job!

Split-BotLoved this! Had a few screen scaling issues when playing on a web browser but maybe that's just my particular set up.
Great storage mechanic, having you lose storage spaces when you take damage is a really good way of balancing gameplay, and intermittent repair opportunities never makes it feel like the odds are stacked too far against you. Loved the music too.
It would be good for it to be more obvious when you'd hit max capacity on one of your elements as I found myself forgetting to bank them, but it's a small issue, and I had a great time with it otherwise.
Great work!

The BabuNice atmosphere and music to go with it. I got 3583 points.
I really liked the concept, and the controls were great (jitter on the drag mechanic was the only minor issue). With a few more features it could definitely be something releasable for mobile stores.
Not sure if the difficulty increases but I probably could have gone on for a while longer. Increasing the speed of the asteroids (and the rewards!) would keep things interesting.

Dimensional Survivors 3D!Thanks for the compliments and triple thanks for the critical feedback :)
Difficulty is definitely something that needs work. I'm trying to balance for both experienced gamers and my kids (2 of my helpers on this project). There needs to be a difficulty curve that starts low but goes up more dramatically over time. The rate is currently a bit slow.
Right now, as the game goes on there are more astroids in play at any one time, so that's supposed to make it more difficult. The reality is, I think, the opposite, where the additional astroids are causing collisions with other astroids so there are fewer crossing the play area. I think your suggestion of making them faster (and maybe smaller) might add some difficulty to it. Asteroids that split into multiple smaller astroids on collision is worth considering as well.
Rewards are something I was hoping for, but didn't quite get in scope in time. Increased capacity (slots and per slot), faster ship, proactive shields, and automovers were all cut for time. Adding them would give more incentive to collect resources and lead to a more proactive game experience. Should be more to spend credits on than just reactive repairs.
Cheers and that's lovely re: helpers - I can't wait til my kids are able to help (or even out-code me) on my projects. My 2.4 year old was helping during the jam by making boom noises when I fired the launcher / destroyed enemies.
Maybe difficulty settings would be the way forward - same with my game where the 1000 enemy quota is definitely not a casual goal, but again... time pressures :)
This is a wonderful game. I really liked the mechanics.
You did a great job!
