Like a distored House of the Rising Sun at first, then totally exploding. I love it. The game could have been a lot more clear on the how and the why, and I did have rather poor performance on Linux (Arch x64), and might have done better with a drop-off point for the waste, a different mechanic. Also, I assumed Return meant Enter but I don't have a numpad on my laptop so I couldn't drop off the waste.\n\nThere's also a bug where the moment I started the game, I got attacked right away by the closest ship?\n\nI can't put my finger on it, but I did sail through the entire song. There's something so raw about what you made, it's intriguing all the same, and awesome in that.\n\nOne last remark: the landing page here isn't really appealing. I stumbled on this page before, but, especially given no web build was available, was hesitant on trying it out, not in the least due to the toxic colors in the screenshots. I find more people should experience what you made, also so you can get a ranking, so maybe a single screenshot could serve better than four?","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"NNNIKKI","author_uid":"1033863","time":"2017-12-09T17:51:56Z","epoch":1512841916,"modified":1512841916,"text":"I was unable to run it.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"x1212","author_uid":"1008103","time":"2017-12-09T20:19:45Z","epoch":1512850785,"modified":1512850785,"text":"Thanks for the feedback :)\n\n@joror: yes, it's way easier than I planned it to be, the \"AI\" I made is just horrible :p the camera was supposed to make the game feel like one of those old isometric 3D ones but I didn't get the perspective right ...\n\n@willowblade: Thanks a lot, I made quite a lot of mistakes when creating this landing page and while I did realize that I hadn't got it right, I wasn't quite able to put my finger on what exactly was wrong with it.
