This is my first Ludum Dare entry and boy did I ever run out of time. I got the basics in but the sound effects and music, not so much. I struggled with solving what turned out to be a fairly simple issue, but took me hours to figure out, should have let that one go to finish other stuff but - tunnel vision!

Random events fire that allow you buff your energy, and your ship hull, there are only 4. 2 you have to go find, 2 are just the ship breaking down.

Any comments are welcome, good - bad - or indifferent.

Aaaaaaaaaand I apparently deleted the camera script to follow the player when cleaning up the scripts folder. Dumb mistake. I will add it and upload new files then post links in the next day or so. Sorry guys. :(

Haaaahaha, it remembers me my first entry, I uploaded seven times my game.
Indeed there is an issue with the camera, please notify me once you've fixed that if you want a feedback. So far, there is only a bit to say:
* There is a splashscreen, well done, we have time to prepare, not all games let us do
* There is explanation, congrats ! The first error in LD is making a game but forgetting to explain its rule.
* The space ship movement is logical, but it isn't as smooth as i expected, maybe a performance issue ?
* The background is here, good point; however I personnaly, subjectively and it only concern me, don't like it haha (my game has a creepy background too so I should say nothing but hey, you look very cool on this page)

Thanks for sharing and trying !

There's nothing to interact with with the ship.

Good Morning.

I didn't get to this as quickly as I wanted. The original files are linked in the description. I updated the Links area with the NEW files with the camera fix done, the source script added back in.

Thanks!

It is a good game for your first Ludum Dare, you will improve over time, but don't expect too high ratings.

Besides the fact that laser is useless and that I'm not sure if game is winnable, it was problematic to remember coordinates of object because new object appeared.

Also you should play and rate others' game to get more votes.
