Inspired by the ambition of euclidean-whale I also got the source code, built it and played it and I have to say I like what you managed to get done here. Simple, clean concept - I was just not skilled enough to survive long enough to test out my new guns. Adding more weapons to the ship and stuff like that is a seriously fun concept and after the jam I would love to see you flesh this out some more, because I love this type of game.

Thank you for playing!
Unless my motivation goes low, I will turn this into something closer to a real game over the next two weeks, and publish whatever I added after the voting is over. I am thinking about turning this into a roguelite with "Slay the spire"-like map navigation. If you have any request per what types of enemies or weapons you'd like being added please let me know!
Do you know any other games where you built your own ship/character? I can only think of Faster Than Light and Armored Core, which both are pretty different from what I am trying to make (also i have not played either of them).
