ISS Explorer by BitDemon

[raw]
made by BitDemon for LD30 (JAM)
Your mission is to steal metals from other planets before destroying them.
To get coins you need to sell the collected metals to other planets, each planet has a value and the higher the value the higher you will get for your metals.

I wanted to have a features shop to buy upgrades for your ship but I ran out of time, so the coins are useless.

I haven't tested the Mac and Linux builds but I think they are fine.

Controls:
Move: WASD
Shoot: Spacebar
Select Planet: Left Click
Make route: Right click base planet -> right click target plannet
Sell metals: Click metal -> click planet

I like the graphics and the animation was very fluid.

Awesome job! Was hungry to spend that money, though

Slick controls and a fun simple idea, I feel the radius around where you see stuff could've been slightly larger but that might be just me being bad :D

amusing game. perhaps i never stayed alive long enough, but i never gained any resources, even after funneling stuff between planets. from a game design jam perspective, great work.. audio, music, graphics, and it fit the theme. well done.

Hi there. Nice look and feel, would be nice to have a much wider field of view, can't move smoothly at present, have to keep taking little steps to avoid flying into a new planet. Appropriate sounds well coordinated. Good job!
