Thank you for your feedback! I agree that the UI isn't very good. This wasthe first time I made UI-based game in Godot, and most of my time was spent fixing all the little bugs withing the UI system.
Great game! The controls felt very responsive (although I never really had to use the strafe keys), and I really love the art and overall theme. I think the text could be bigger, I had to lean closer to my monitor to read it. I loved all of the sound design except the engine sound when moving the ship around, it felt very annoying to me. Overall, it's a very enjoyable game. I especially liked the little interactions with the aliens.
Thank you for your feedback. The Q key does indeed give you 1K carbon; it's a debug feature I forgot to remove. You probably thought it didn't work the 2nd time because the Carbon Amount label does not update when you click Q.
Congratulations on submitting your first game! I really liked the juiciness of the game--all the different sound effects and visual effects made the game really fun to play.
Thanks for your feedback! Not being able to interact with anything is a bug that occurs after you become a ghost and revive yourself. Pretty sad that we couldn't fix it in time as becoming a ghost frequently was supposed to be part of the gameplay loop.
The VFX and art are pretty good. I wish there was some kind of indicator that showed where to go after completing a puzzle; having to check each room was a bit annoying. But I think the game was good and I had fun while playing it.
Thank you for your feedback! We weren't sure if we'd have enough time to implement the dialogue, and we ended up implementing it in during the last hour.
