Good graphics, awesome music, concept is cool maybe little repetitive but it's normal for this kind of game, maybe you could add more feedback in menu (when mouse is over and if an action is possible). Very solid entry, perfectly in the theme !

It took a little while to get moving, but once my mining operation had a good flow, it was pretty smooth. Nice art and sound, good entry overall. Nice job!

Nice graphics and music. I was constantly avoiding the floating rocks but turns out there is no punishment for that. Also the UI in your post-jam version is gone for some reason. Smooth movement and mining action.

Oh wow, the visuals immediately grabbed me. Beautiful and atmospheric, the controls are really tight and nice feeling too. I'm going to go play the post-jam build now!

Cool graphics and music! I wish there was a little HUD that showed the stats of the satellite. Nice game juice. Good work!

Really nice atmosphere in this game. The graphics and audio set a great mood. Good work on building this game!

The graphics are cool. Soundtrack is pretty. This two components create awesome atmosphere. The mechanics looking good. The only thing I miss here is ship upgrades (to get it move faster, shoot further, carry more) for resource. But other than that - fun atmospheric experience.

I loved the audio and pixel graphics that perfectly match and complement the game's vibe. I played both versions and I can hardly believe it was even more beautiful. It’s a solid work, the game is well polished.
