This is really interesting! I wish there was a way to fight against asteroids that move slowly close to the bottom of the screen, maybe make it so  that when the player boosts it also gives them some speed upwards.

Amazing entry!

Definitely a cool concept! I almost wish the good engine was more visible, I kept thinking the blown engine was the good one every once in a while, but great job!

This was fun and awesome being completely out of control!

I like it. Normally after playing a game jam game, I find myself wanting to see more interesting mechanics, more varied threats, but with the intentionally janky controls, there is enough of an interesting challenge as it is. This game doesn't seem particularly ambitious, but within those confines, of being a low-graphics asteroid it seems honed to perfection.

Overall, the game is very thought-provoking in terms of how janky controls can change gameplay, and that's exactly what a game jam game should be.

If you ever want to update this game, I would suggest doing a screen wrap like asteroids, and also removing the friction completely because physics.

Ugh why doe reCAPTCHA always think im a bot. Anyway very cool game!

Didn't take long to get used to the controls and it plays well.
Though... panicking when an asteroid is hurtling towards you throws that out the window ^^;

Thanks for the feedback! The asteroids are really interesting because you have to plan ahead when reacting to them.

I had trouble understanding at first how to move the ship, but once I understood it, I found it brilliant. With a little music it would be even better :) Good job.

Yeah, I made it to the spaceport!

Developer

Good job! It took us a couple of times, and we made the game.

I could understand the movement, it seemed to be too random and not behave like it should.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

If you were curious, the horizontal speed is based on the angle the ship is turned. When the red side is all the way to the left or right, you'll move quickly in the opposite direction.
