How did you incorporate the prompts?
Smooth Sailing + Obscurity

Smooth Sailing: Sailing calmly through space/nebula with the help of Solar sails.

Obscurity: Locations are obscured inside the Nebula, on the minimap. Locations are marked with a question mark, until you travel there and uncover the location.

How do you feel about the game you made?
Great learning experience but intense two days of dev.

What can we improve for the next jam?
I like the idea of having the three categories and then having to choose two of those categories to incorporate into your game.

But I think the categories are a little confusing (phrase, word, inspiration) since they're quite similar. Instead I think have more specific categories, for example, Theme, Object, Color.

And maybe they have to incorporate all three. Or Theme is required but they can choose between object or color.

I'm not sure what I was doing, but my points kept going up so I think I was playing it right maybe lol

The ship design is very creative, and I really liked the overall look of the project. Extra creativity points for using sailing in a sci-fi setting and not doing something sea related! I had a little bit of difficulty understanding the mechanics related to the deliveries. I was unsure of the target of the delivery and was able to deliver things to the same location that I picked them up from.

No challenge. Clicking until the end of time.

Art is good)

And while I played, I got an idea: mix it with "wolf-goat-cabbage". You get some items: ABCD. Planets 1 and 2 need A and B. But if you deliver A to planet 1, something catastrophic will happen. And you have no enough fuel to deliver A to planet 2.  So you have to deliver C to planet 6 first) Something like this)
