A game where you switch between the space and crash into planets, spaceroam.gif

the game then switches into a top down shooter with instance generated maps. shooter.gif

Somestimes when you land on a planet a special something will welcome you edrt 2017-04-23 16-14-10-282.png

The goal is to take that sweet resource and enlarge your tiny planet. If you upgrade enough you'll might get an upgrade surprise :) enlarge2.gif

This was my first Jam, it was fun but I had to start late and end early so there're plenty of things I wished I could polish. But I ended up doing a lot of stuff in the 8ish Hours I could put into this.

Very challenging game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 38 compilation [video series](https://youtu.be/TFsh4EsXErU), if you’d like to take a look :)

Really like the idea. Would have played longer if I haven't died 10 times in a row on the first two planets. An easier first planet would have been nice :)
