Nice game, I liked the idea, I just think that the control mapping could me a little better... Maybe using 12QW, or something like that, to let us see more easily which button activates which motor.
It's a cool concept. The art is ok, but it would be better if it's not blurred. The control of 4 engines is a good idea, but sometimes i feel like it's not doing what it's supposed to do. In one occasion, i turn the BL thruster to cancel the rotation, but instead it when sideways faster. I think it would be better if you only turn one thruster, then it will only affect the rotation of the ship. I know it's not realistic, but i think it would make the controls more intuitive. Overall, good game.
The idea is original, I love it! Like everyone says the control are hard and are not intuitive, something like W,A,S,D or a visual representation in-game would have helped, but overall good job !
Nice job! I like the overall aesthetic, with the art and UI, etc. Definitely fits the theme for sure. I agree with a below comment about making the keys not in a line but instead 4 corners of a square. It was really hard to move around and accomplish much. Maybe shooting could be mouse based so you can shoot in any direction and then the challenge is moving and getting the fuel. But who knows, good job!
The game fits the theme very well, and it feels like you can lose control. The single looping screen is nice, and it's good that the world is not big, it really feels like the focus is regaining control.
