i saw you working on this in the progress channel! turned out so fun. i recognised Deep-Fold Pixel Planet Generator – that thing is great! did you integrate it or generate planets ‘offline’?
Hi, thanks for checking out my game after seeing its early forms! Unfortunately, I did not integrate the generator into this build but that is something I am considering for a full release!
Really impressive! I found it to be almost too challenging though. I struggled to get over 2000 score 😂but maybe im just skill issued. The art and music were really good and you did a great amount of polishing.
Amazing game and I am a big fun with the space themed games. Great art and challenging game play! Bravos!
Gameplay and artstyle is very good! Also a challenging game..love it!
I'm really bad at this game, but I had a lot of fun despite that! The really love the art in this game!
Never thought it would be this hard. Still had fun playing.
The art for this game is beautiful! Had some fun looping planets!
Super fun but felt a little unfairly difficult with super precise timings and often trying to get to places I couldn't quite see
Absolutely love the gameplay — super addictive! The retro CRT-style curved screen effect works perfectly with the art and sound — it really pulls you into the vibe.
That said... the difficulty’s no joke — I keep dying over and over 😂 But somehow, that just makes me want to try again.
Hi! Thanks for playing and leaving this comment, I was wondering if I could use this as a quote for my portfolio? Should I also include your name or leave it anon? Thanks!
Of course, feel free to use it!
You can mention my name as Yichuan Wang or River Wang — either one works.
Stellar artwork! And the CRT-style shader fits perfect.
Classical fun
Pretty Good! I do wish there was a restart button for when I miss and fly into space instead of having to wait the half seconded and the timings felt a little tight. That said the art and music were great and this was a fun few minutes.
Well done :)
Interesting idea. very hard to master. good work
would love it if you could try and rate my game. thanks
I think with the given speed there needs to be a few adjustments to make things less precise, but overall the idea is well implemented, very well done, especially for what appears to be a solo project. The graphics were incredible. The music was good, although it probably should have not looped every time the player retries. I also experienced a bug that automatically just farmed points as long as fuel was spawning on the two planets I was auto-jumping between, and got a score of 59000 lol.
The art is beautiful, and the concept is cool. I think the move speed could be toned down a bit to reduce the difficulty.
I found this experience enjoyable. The art was clean, and while it was a bit challenging at first, after playing several times, I realized that I needed to target the outer rings to avoid crashing into the planet, lol. I might have overlooked this since I sometimes skip reading instructions; I usually prefer to jump in and figure things out.
Overall, it was impressive solo work completed in just four days.
Possibly the next KSP? Really really nice art. Very fun although a bit challenging!
Love it! Super challenging, and beatiful artwork
similar concept to https://averyshinycoin.itch.io/g-force-search-and-rescue-moon-operations-in-spaa...
but as a high score kind of game instead. Cool to see people's different takes on a similar idea : )
