@Roboatino very good game, very unique concept, would love to see a better post-jam version man :)

One of the best games in the entire game jam! This is very fresh and I enjoyed the experience greatly. I'm not the biggest van of SHMUPS games but this was really cool.

Developer

Thanks a lot! :D

I'm usually too lazy to download games (usually prefer web ones), but the reference to Sagan on the title made me try it, and thank god I did! Really fun game, the music and sfx fit so well, the art style is my favorite and the mechanics were awesome (too bad I didn't know that my glory back home would be measured by how many modules I brought back, if I did I would have tried to get more). Good job!

Thank you so much! As you are the first one to acknowledge the Sagan reference I hereby grant you 100 extra glory points, making you the current world record holder of Pale Blue Pixel.

That was fun! I particularly love the graphics and music, great vibes. Would like an exit button!

Very nice game design! Building a ship this way gives all kinds of interesting choices. I would like to see an extended version with different kinds of enemies, where you can prepare for different waves.

Thanks a lot!

I LOVE this concept. It has a lot that could be expanded upon. If the shooting felt more satisfying and the guns a bit more exciting, I think this would've really kicked ass, but it's still a good submission!

Thank you! Yeah, the shooting could definitely benefit from having bigger bullets, different weapons and more interesting targets than rocks :P
