Orbital Oranges by MisterIXI

made by MisterIXI for Ludum Dare 52 (JAM)

----- Story -----

The cargoship of the interstellar logistics company Orbital Oranges got completely destroyed in an asteroid field when it tried to reach a seclude human outpost in the yet to be explored reaches of outer space.

You are a supply robot from this outpost and your task is to secure the vital crops from the wreckage.

But beware!

The energy core of the cargoship is slowly overheating and threatens to explode. Can you harvest enough fruits to ensure the survival of your humans until your time runs out?

----- GAMEPLAY -----

Use your spaceship to transport stray cargo. Equip new ship parts to customize your vessel. Secure crops by shooting them through the tractor gate.

*----- DISCLAIMER ----- *

Unfortunately there were complications which slowed us down. So we couldn't finish this project. There is currently no objective in this build.

To interact use the Left-Mousebutton (Sorry settings are outdated °_°)

-> Just enjoy the view in your brand new spaceship. :sunglasses:

----- GAMEPAD IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED -----

Whoops, I didn't publish the itch site. It should be online now. Thanks for the heads up :)

Your atmosphere was great and I just kinda sat there looking around for a long time. You had some really cool details such as the objects at the bottom right and left which helped me orient myself by moving. Cool game, unfortunate you didn't have time to finish it.

Nice work on finishing as many features as you did, even though you didn't get to do all you wanted. The mood and music are really nice, and it's pretty fun to just float around and look at all the different floating objects, with the beautiful stars and galaxies in the background. Great job on LD52! :)

It's so cool to see a 3d game in a jam! And also a space game.

This game in gameplay looks very simillar to our game x)

Though, it's a bit hard to understand what's going on (probably, bcs it wasnt created by us :DD ) and sad you hadnt time to complete objectives featrue :(

Looks really interesting. Love the graphics and overall mood. The way I understand word "harvest" I'd say its close but not close enough to the theme. I liked the idea of controlling in space but gotta say it was a bit to challenging. Good job regardless!

Wow. Fantastic looking game!!! I am impressed.
I have seen "ready" games which do not look as good!

Amazing game! The climate of the game is unearthly! Moving around the space gave me so much pleasure. Great job! ^^

I'm not sure I understood how to play it (common problem with space-themed games :)). But visually look very cool.

Nice atmosphere. The ambient music is relaxing and space backdrop is pretty.
I couldn't figure out what to do though. I could fly around and I figured out I could drag those engines around, but that was about it. The player controller also locks out if you look straight or or down rather than rotating any further.
