I really should've gotten a cable connection by pidifussel
You got the brilliant idea of buying a TV station with transmission satellites! Send TV transmissions to the homes of your customers and keep their happiness up. Buy upgrades to make your life easier and retire from the business of satellite television.
(press 'Space' to transmit the signal to a nearby device)
Heyyy guys, so the .exe and html file dont work like intended because some features are sadly missing, we dont know why. If you want to have the whole experience please download the zip or take a look into our github repo.

As for the game I really enjoyed it. It was really good fun whizzing my signal across the cosmos to peoples' homes. I really like the improvisation for cloud effects. A very fun concept. Good stuff :8ball:
At first I had trouble understanding what I had to do but then I got the hang of it and it was fun. I was planning my route around space to deliver signal everywhere. It's nice that the orbits were the same each day, this way I knew how to get to the asteroid quickly. The only problem I had was if I went to an asteroid whith no home I would almost always loose because waiting for another sattelite to come by took too much time.
Overall it's simple and efficient. Good job.
I am not on Windows, so I could only try the web version. Anyway the gameplay that is available there feels really nice, and I would happily keep playing.
Please tag me when you fix the issues and upload an updated HTML version, I would love to try it again!
