It's your choice to not like our game, we don't judge and it's right to disagree, it can starts interesting discussions.
But we never said visuals should count in the rating. They shouldn't.
AND! We didn't try to make an "art contest" as you said. Our artist just wanted to try things out and make a beautiful game, is that wrong ? Just because it's a jam about design we should restrict our artists ?
The fact that you don't like our art choice is another problem entirely.
I also believe a good design can be fun to play without fancy graphics. Strip our game of its graphics and it will still be fun to play in my opinion (and I believe also for the other people who like the feeling of our game). But all together is the experience we wanted to provide. It wouldn't be the same if all were separated. If it's not your kinda game, that's ok, but don't make our artists feel bad because they did an awesome job ;)
And I believe Zelda Breath of The Wild has awesome art and visuals... don't you ? ;)
And I still don't get how our ship is too unpredictable. I really want to know what you don't understand.
It turns all the time except just after you used an impulse and then it turns again. And the rotation is always in the same direction.
There are some bug still, but overall the pattern stays the same.
Hey @Rismosch,
It's ok to disagree and you have the right to dislike our game's gameplay! As you could see in the other comments, many people like it and find it fun. If you think there are all wrong and the game has a bad design, that's fine by me :)
Let me just add this: We didn't participate in this Jam to be the most popular game (we're not and we'll never be). If we wanted to "perform" and get a good score, we'd spend more time on tweaking and get a better review. But our goal is different, we want to have fun and have everyone in the team enjoy their work and be challenged.
Also, I don't share your point of view about design being separated from the other discipline. For me, the design is at the centre of all discipline, linking them together to create an experience and I'm a strong believer of cross-pollination. Also, in my opinion, game feel and juice are super important and it's not "pretty art and music".
Though, once again, no hard feelings here and thanks for your feedback :)
Cheers.
