Really cool game! My only complaint is that camera controls are a little slow
Super neat take on the theme!
Had a lot of fun playing! The name and ship gave me strong Futurama vibes
What a terrific interpretation of the theme! The concept is extremely fun and I would love to see it polished into a more complete game: managing the routes of sever spaceships is very cool and entertaining. The art is also the right blend between minimalism and realism, it reminds me of the “kurzgesagt” style of animation.
My only suggestion would be to add a way to speed up time, as right now the player sometimes has to just wait for spaceships to make it to their destination. Also I feel that the energy bar depletes a little too quickly, but this is just a nitpick. Other than that the game is very cool, congratulations! :)
Thank you very much for your feedback! Yeah, I struggled a bit with balancing the start of the game. At first, I had a way to speed up time, but I felt like players would just play with the maximum time scale all the time.
This game is peak! Was it not a big surprise to see there is a full solar system only to realise there is more than one spaceship? I liked it so much! The first time I didn't see what's going on only to enjoy it on my second attempt!
P.S. earth gives a kurzgesagt vibe :)
Thank you very much, yeah I really like the style of their space videos
Nice game
Nice game! I actually had a similar idea at first. I think it would be great to improve the physics a bit so that we could gain speed through close planetary maneuvers.
Thanks! You can actually get slingshotted by planets by flying near them, but ships often go too fast to be affected by the planet's gravity. :/
A really great concept, even if I did keep throwing myself into deep space!
Still waiting for Fry, Leela, and the Professor to show up.
Seems interesting.
Its like a RTS or SIM of some sort. Just sit back, chill and watch the ships scoot around the solar system. Very neat take on the theme. Great job!
oh well, guess we had a similar thought process (luckily we ended up in very different places)
Great game!
