Not a fan of the cycle-through of the ship's systems. Makes the action stop to a halt. Maybe keyboard keys (1-7) + cooldown timer, could be a better option perhaps?
The presentation is polished beyond belief, looks and sounds fantastic.

Oh! I like this game. Not only because of the visuals and sound, but also because of the originality. I had also fun paying it, but I also wish the control scheme would support me better. Maybe by speeding up the selection of the options or by using different layout for the actions.
However, great work! Keep it up!
The concept is cool, visuals and sounds work great together. I really like the CMYK color scheme in the UI. One thing I have to say is that the controls are clunky. I got used to them after a while but if I was reviewing this on a busy day unfortunately I can't say I'd be willing to spend my time trying to get used to it. That would be a shame so I hope others won't miss out on this fun game because the controls put them off.
I think getting used to controls would be a lot easier if the same button pattern applied to every system. It's confusing having to mash the button to activate one system and having to double tap to shut down another (same with holding to power one system and holding to shut down another.)
I hope you'll work on this game after the jam as well.
5/5 originality, but somewhat clunky to control. Great art!
the usage of the theme is on-point, the gameplay is fun and original, and on top of that it looks amazing.
