What do you think of Defold
I picked up Defolt 3 days ago appositely for this Jam.... the online manual could be more specific about certain vital things- there's a good potential overall but could be more friendly.

No restart except for reloading the page. Nice intro animation! It doesn’t feel like it becomes progressively harder? And there is no scoring system which makes it hard for players to understand the goal (except for the instruction to survive as long as possible). A nice touch is that it looks like you’ve opted to create your own graphics instead of using pre existing assets. This is not very common in game jams, nice job!

Nice, little game ;)

Here are things to improve: There is no GUI at all, no scoring system, no health indication, so player don't know what to do - one of the goals of the game design is for the player to present state of the game and how you could affect it. The other thing to consider is the visibility - I wasn't sure whether I could collide with planets, but it turns out I can - do you know why? Both planets and dangerous objects had the same colour tone and it wasn't possible for the player to differentiate planets from them. If your intent was to use them as background objects, you would need to work on their tone, to really not interfere with the plane, where objects to avoid are ;)

After taking too much damage (so game over), you can't replay it in any other way than reloading the page.

Other than this - you made a playable simple game in 3 days! Congrats! :D

thank you, it was my first time using Defold and I had so many issues with so many basic things and I really couldn't finish the game... I'm sorry it's missing so many elements and it is so scuffed

No need to be sorry - main purpose of the game jam is to learn (check out my game for the jams that are incomplete xD). You did a great job making a game from scratch in such a short amount of time - congratulations and wishing you all the best on the gamedev journey! ;)
