Though with no sound and no collisions it is a little hard to play for very long I think. Even a looping sound of seagulls and waves could really add a lot to the atmosphere. Tech wise I think it's fantastic though, and quite amazing that the generation animation could function through the web player!"},{"author_name":"AirRider3","author_uid":"7398","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 9:03am","epoch":1367312280,"text":"It's a shame there's no much to do."},{"author_name":"GeorgeBroussard","author_uid":"8631","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 9:25am","epoch":1367313600,"text":"More of a tech demo but something you can maybe build on."},{"author_name":"lasergans","author_uid":"18111","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 9:44am","epoch":1367314740,"text":"As advertised more a simulation than a game."},{"author_name":"nixeldev","author_uid":"12013","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 10:05am","epoch":1367316000,"text":"Very impressive tech, awesome stuff.

There seems to be a bug with the ship reaching the red destination markers and turning vertical, facing upwards. I tried the web version, so I don't know if it's because of Unity's web player.
