Great game :) Controls felt nice, bumping into asteroids was frustrating and fun :D Cool graphics, I really liked the screen shake on the explosion.
I dont know if I did something wrong or there is a bug but I felt like some items were missing from my cargo after smelting
it is a bug :( I put it in the description, unfortunately I had already fixed a game breaking bug after submitting before I even noticed the smelting one. Thank you for playing and leaving a comment! 馃榿
Awesome game! The mining and selling is a nice gameplay loop. I like that you added the healthbar onto the ship, clean design. I thought the controls worked well. I agree with elektito, the turn speed did make it hard to hit things at times. Great work!
This is the sort of game that I generally enjoy, and I did enjoy playing yours, there were just a couple of issues, but I'm not actually sure whether they are from your end or mine. First of all, graphics wasn't working in Chrome. I just got a pink screen there. But I had that issue with one other game too. So maybe something wrong with my browser, I don't know. Or maybe a recent bug in Godot, that is activated under certain conditions. This is on Linux, mind you. Anyways, the issue is not present in Firefox.
Another issue is that the game seemed to be a bit laggy. I don't see this mentioned in any other comments, so again, maybe I've got issue on my PC. But I haven't had that with any other games so far.
Apart from those, looks like rotation is done in pretty large steps. This made aiming really difficult for me. A smoother rotation would make things a lot nicer imho. Also, a slightly bigger hitbox for picking up minerals would also help.
Sorry if this sounds like a negative review! All over, I think you've submitted a really nice game.
Good entry. The controls are responsive and the gameplay is quite clear. Idk, enemies AI seems quite slow (if you get behind them, they don't have enough time to turn back and punish you). Also, the art style is quite different for every type of asset (the ship is one, space another, UI 3th and icons 4th). The music is good, it really gives you a sensation of space exploring and the explosions feel satisfoyng. Maybe I would work a bit on game's challenge. In rest, good job.
This has the makings of quite an engrossing game - just needs those extra features you mentioned and a bit of context to help the player lose themself in the world. What's here is enjoyable, though, and it's nicely presented.
I havent tried a lot of games yet but this one is my favorite so far
Thank you!
