Supplementary Information
2D Shooter where all items are Bullets! Account system, inventory, currency, and shops are working using Metafab. However you can only sell the first resource using the shop (terminal) since I wasn't able to finish completely. Everything is synced after you leave your ship. (A little jank..). Thanks. (I recommend quickly reading the game page tutorial since I wasn't able to finish the tutorial either..)

I'm really glad you managed to post the game!
It takes some time to get ahold of it, but when you get the basics, it's really fun! I think that the mechanics are well thought out, and it has great potential to be polished further.
Overall, good job! :)
Thanks! I'm aware of how complicated the game is, I think I was leaning too much on the thought of me making an in game tutorial, and even with that I think it still might be a bit too complicated.
There is unfortunately a lot I really wanted to implement, some things I considered "core" to the idea. Basically part of the design was that you had to design your machine placements because you could get damaged in the crossfire of machines transporting items, I thought that would have been cool and add depth. I may have overscoped and unfortunately specifically the Metafab integration is pretty janky, even though it does work technically. Also the story is missing which is unfortunate. Basically there's a lore reason why metafab integration is through your ship, there's a "network" of other trade terminals that is "meta" metafab lol.
I'm glad you were able to enjoy the systems, I tried to create them with care since I enjoy playing the game myself
Unfortunately there's bugs.
Notably I found that after a few waves of enemies all of a sudden a massive wave comes to kill you lol.
Also sometimes the polymer resource doesn't sell (the metafab shop offer doesn't go through). I think this might be if you leave the shop before it going through.. not sure. I should have left that system go and not changed it so close to the deadline..
Also the in game music is supposed to be able 5x louder. I actually already fixed that bug though.
