Thank you for the detailed review!

We really appreciate the deep breakdown you’ve given here. We’ve been discussing the feedback you’ve given us here in detail and making we plans to fix all the issues you faced.

  1. We are gonna completely revamp the ship select screen once we have more ships.

  2. There are UI scaling issues as well. We are looking into this and ways to fix it. This is the reason you faced the problems with the 4k screen. Apologies for that.

  3. You mentioned the boost did not work. Can you tell us more about this so we get an idea where to look? 🤔 Was the boost not activating at all even when you had the botton constantly pressed while you had energy?

  4. Practice range is a great idea! We will implement this in the coming patches for sure. Gives an idea of the ships you are using as well.

  5. This tutorial is just the first iteration. We will definitely be improving it based on your feedback and the other feedback we have been getting about it.

  6. A score screen at the end is a fantastic idea. It helps complete the gameplay loop. We will implement this

  7. We will take your feedback about difficulty very seriously as well. The game is to start with three stages, since we only have 1 so far, we decided to amp up the difficulty a bit more. This will not be the case in the future versions.

Thank you for trying this despite not being your style of game! We genuinely appreciate it!

Glad to help how I can. Doing game jams I've been playing a lot more styles of games than I normally would. These days I do a lot more turn-based than fast paced, but I used to do more real-time.

I'm really not sure on the boost issue. I tried to test it more, but the game was challenging and I was not able to figure out a good way to test. I tried both in the tutorial and main game. I'm not sure if the tutorial limits when it becomes enabled, as I was not able to use it at the start when I had the issue, but playing through it again I did eventually get it to work. Since I wasn't sure on the tutorial, my main testing was to start a new game and immediately try to use the boost and barrel roll. I'd press and hold for boost, but nothing happened. I was not loosing energy. I did not see any visual, or hear any audio, indication it was working. Trying the barrel roll I can acknowledge that I didn't always time things right to trigger it, but I retried it several times and similarly never saw it happen. After a restart it seemed to be working. I know this isn't that helpful, because I really don't have any key details to narrow it down. I even opened up a doc and started typing to make sure my keyboard was still working correctly. One thought I had was maybe something to do with the Caps Lock key, as I did accidentally press it at one point, but toggling it didn't seem to have any impact. The biggest issue is that I was trying to learn so much at once and my attention so spread, that when it first started to be an issue I figured I made a mistake, but didn't really pay enough attention to what was happening right away. I don't know if it was tied to boosting or doing a barrel roll when I died or perhaps activated a shop. There are many things I could see it being, but my skill was not sufficient to retest. The best I can say is that it seemed to happen at some point as I played and restarting the game seemed to fix it. When I next play I will try to pay more attention for if/when it happens and what may have happened before it.
