This one is a gem!\n\nFirst the negative: the screenshake was too much for a constant thing but I get why it was there\nBut otherwise: the controls felt good, the death felt meaty, I always knew when I could grab something.

The ending reminded me of Tetris, needs more russian folk music though ;)\n\nAlmost didn't make it because of this stupid block decided to start bouncing around defying all laws of physics. Then finally I managed to grab it from the air and could then use it to get past the laser.\n![lonely-rover-resized.gif](\/\/\/raw\/1e4\/3\/z\/45a1.gif)\n\nI think the screen shake was because your camera is too strictly following the rover which is shaking while driving around. A simple addition of damping the camera movement would get rid of the shakiness.\n\n","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"csanyk","author_uid":"1004118","time":"2017-05-16T01:52:30Z","epoch":1494899550,"modified":1494899550,"text":"Really well done.  A bit too difficult, but it was fun to pick up stuff.  It would have been better if the game let me pick up where I left off after getting blown up instead of starting all over.  \n\nI think the camera positioning could stand some refinement. And it could be clearer how to build the spacecraft -- I tried putting more parts on the yellow square, but they wouldn't go and the square turned red, which I take to mean that I'm doing something wrong, wrong ordering or something. Then I picked up a part and tried to put it down and it just kept bouncing, and I was like whaaaaa?\n\nOverall the sounds are great, but the rover's movement sound got old quickly.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"sgstair","author_uid":"1014241","time":"2017-05-19T09:27:39Z","epoch":1495186059,"modified":1495186059,"text":"Very cool - I enjoyed playing this, and the level design, graphics, sound design are all quite good, impressive. The grabbing mechanic is a bit awkward but that's reasonable I think. Handles on everything are a great visual cue for interactability. Movement is a little slow for my taste.\n\nI played this on stream at https:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/videos\/143780402 - time 0:07:25","likes":0,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld38\/20828-920b7be5d685e86f124beedcd60e5633.png"],"links":[],"metadata":{"g_key":"39496","g_author":"1001087","g_event":"LD38","g_eventkey":"69","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"237800","g_title":"Lonely Rover","g_status":"USEAR3","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"6","g_site2_node_id":"20828","g_hide":"Y","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"20828","n_urlkey":"237800","n_parent":"9405","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/38\/lonely-rover","n_slug":"lonely-rover","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"compo","n_author":"1087","n_created":"1492843675","n_modified":"1492981624","n_version":"38362","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":20828,"parent":9405,"superparent":9,"author":1087,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"compo","published":"2017-04-23T21:07:04Z","created":"2017-04-22T06:47:55Z","modified":"2017-04-23T21:07:04Z","version":38362,"slug":"lonely-rover","name":"Lonely Rover","body":"![title.png](\/\/\/raw\/f34\/z\/600.png)\n\n*\"The lonely rover is stuck on a small asteroid.
