deeper into space by Quin2
You're a deep space probe out looking for alien life. Be sure not to hit any astroids! :smile: Boost and glide around obstacles. You have limited energy to boost with, so collect Hydrogen along the way to keep yourself fueled. Try and see how far you can make it! :comet: This is an infinite-runner style game with no end.

I love the little face on the player and the msPaint style graphics. I really do get a kick out of quickly the hand drawn art in jam games.
I think the idea of resource consumption and refilling on the hydrogen pickups works well too.
a few things held it back for me.
- It feels very punishing up front, one wrong move can kill you and you often just get trapped with no way out.
- this is compounded by how rare the hydrogen spawns are and how little they refill.
Also the sliding friction (auto stopping of the player) feels odd in a game set in space.
Have you considered making a mobile version in the future? I think touch controls would be a good fit for your game.
Good job!
