Really cool idea and implementation of the theme. I love the art and sound design. Great work!

The vibe of this game is soooo good. Its so mesmerizing with the music, and the screens, makes it really fun to play. The management was really fun too, and planning routes strategically to increase your score was fun. I think if there was a bit more of an incentive to try to get as much as possible out it might be slightly more engaging, but that said its already super good, especially for 4 days. Really well done!!!

The color palette and the music really bring you into the vibe! Trying to keep track of the exchange rates between each planet and manage your inventory was really engaging! Really solid work!

This game is incredibly well polished for something made in just 4 days!  Really top notch stuff.

Liked the approach to the theme and polish. Also this game reminded me of original Elite from the 80s =)

Hypnotic atmosphere and game loop, well polished for a game made in such a short amount of time. One of my favourite entries that I have played so far :) (My final score was 65775)

A little difficult to understand at first, but once I got it, it was good fun!

Also, somebody tell me if 7930 is a good score or not.

The game is really beautiful, and it has a bit of a retro-futuristic vibe that I really like.

I'm happy you think that, the style was really a big focus for me this jam!
