Not a very fun. I'm not going to lie. The rest time ruins it. If it were 0.5s-1s, that would be more fun, but 8s is ridiculous. The audio is ok and it fits quite well into theme. Could definately be improved, but you are one developer to follow

I agree the game doesn't feel very balanced and is extremely slow, still, I am learning a lot! Thanks for taking the time to play!

A bit slow, but the idea is great for the theme, the audio fits well with the graphics style and the general idea… I played it a bit, and i think this project can go ahead and be a big game :D

Thanks! Definitely learned a lot making this game and would probably update it as another entry in the future

the rocks should definetly be spawned in at the begining of the game, and the walk speed is very slow, could do with sprint and jump too. the begining of the game is feels realy slow, you should definetly start with less rest time, and/or cheaper upgrades. music and art are pretty cool though! also a way to exit the game without alt F4 would be nice, aswell as other settings(sound volume, but also the possibility of  removing the post process effect as it may make some players dizy) also a very important thing: feel and feedback! if a player does something, anything, there should be as much (but not too much) feedback that they did something, that can be sound effects, particles etc. if you added particles to when you hit the rock, and a big particles explosion when you destroy the rock (maybe even a couple of rock debris fragments flying around) it would make the game feel a lot better, and engage the player more

even after i got all of the upgrades i couldnt be bothered to get enough points to launch the ship, because it just took too long.

No wonder I felt something missing, I forgot one of the most important things, feedback! I also agree with the game being very slow, I wasn't able to do balance the game since this is my first time on with this kind of gameplay, I appreciate the feedback!

The game idea is okay. The visuals and the music is good. The game is super slow, and even with all the upgraded to max, the game still feels really slow. I would also have wished there was a bit more to do. But anyway this is a okay little jam game.

I probably could have added a bit more things to make the game more fun but unfortunately ran out of time, I also wasn't able to fully balance the gameplay since this is my first time creating this type of game but I definitely learned a lot from this, Thank you for the feedback!
