By midway through the game I cut the galactic map and the procedurally generated worlds.  I intended to have a map of a sector of space that you have to take over to win but over-scoping in 48 hours is very easy to do right?  So I stuck with this, I made two \"planets\" but yes, that's something I would do to finish the game beyond the Jam!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Ace17","author_uid":"1002556","time":"2017-05-03T20:59:09Z","epoch":1493845149,"modified":1493845149,"text":"Love the ataric feeling, the ship is easy to control and the sound effects are punchy!

The idea for the game is really easy to understand and what is even more important. the game is pretty fun to play. Both the sound effects and the graphics fits the game very well. The tool switching system is okay, but it took me some time to really understand how it was suppose to work. But overall a great LD game.

The only thing I think is lacking is the pace. You should have to move around to get resources, get into danger, maybe fight ground enemies by dropping bombs. Enemies could chase you away. Right now it is lacking the arcade fun it could have.
