This game make me feel the freedom and hardness of controlling a spacecraft. I enjoyed flying through Asteroids and when I avoided them I felt great satisfaction. Great controls. I like that this game requires some skill. Music is also very in place. Great Game!

nice game but i thing thers nothing to do, a score would be nice good job

Developer

There is a score. Once you run out of oxygen you get to see how long you traveled and how long you survived. You can also see how long you traveled on the screen above the steering wheel.

Amazing game, really well done with great graphics and sound, love all the little screens in the ship. This fits really well with the theme and feels really polished. I would say the controls feel a little over sensitive although that just lends to the chaotic nature of it. Keep up the good work 👍

took me a while to stop spinning, then i just moved forward fast AF, never hit anything, never saw anything but rocks and never saw my O2 deplete. I don't understand what I should be doing, now

Developer

Yeah, i never really found a good way to bring attention to the oxygen meter when it starts to run out. I would have liked to do a lot more polishing, but i ran out of time unfortunately.

This game is very fun! It's pretty easy.  Good work! Only problem that i have with this game that it's crashed my at the end. But i think it's not entirely related to the game.

Just took me one first time not to spin. Simple concept but Its really fun and cool.

Took me a while to figure out how to not get myself in a spin, but that's just cause I'm stupid and kept overreacting. Great design and it fits super well with the theme!

Cool concept and the graphics, music, and gameplay are great

I would have liked to have bit of time with control of the ship and have systems fail as the game progressed. As it is, it feels uncontrollable from the start. 

Developer

You do actually have full control of the ship at the start. It's just that it is very difficult to control it even when it is undamaged. I would have liked to make a sort of tutorial so you could get used to the controls, but it was low priority due to the time limit so i had to resort to a less-than-ideal info screen at the start.

I lost my right engine, and I span for eternity in a disco-space hell scape. It was fun!
