There were a few artifacts going on, but nothing immersion breaking.\nGame had a full flow, from start to end, and you can replay, which is always a plus for a Ludum Dare Entry.\n\nThe gameplay was okay- The camera placement felt a bit weird to me, but I did manage to figure out how to play. The minimap and the arrow was a nice addition. I must admit that gameplay-wise it was a bit lacking- Nothing a few post jam tweaks can't help.\n\nThanks for sharing your game :-)","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"},{"id":787587,"author_name":"OddSocks","author_uid":"oddsocks","epoch":1649157227,"text":"Definitely has potential :D \nI tried to collide with an asteroid, but I survived!
