Farm In Space!

In this cartoony space adventure game about surviving on an alient planet, growing crops & repairing your ship! Made by a single person. The game is still heavily in development (I'd appreciate any and all bug reports), things still not added include: any music whatsoever, some sound effects, certain animations. You can play the post-jam version right here: https://weirdbitgames.itch.io/moonauts-demo

As promised, a much more complete version of the prototype game I made for LD52!

Hello there! It took me a bit to come back to this site with all the bot spams that are going on... I played the game and i like how its shaping up :))).. I already praised it when it was a LD post, so now that youre continuing to work on it ill be more bug testing it! So dont be discouraged since i did spend 48 minutes trying to really break it hahahha... Tbh i thought it was 15 not a whole hour, but i guess i enjoy the game that much!

So here is the bug report:
1. I couldnt buy the "movement speed" and "aditional plot farm" upgrades even if i had enough resources
2. There seems to be a pickup bug, the items will follow you around never getting pickedup(lightning bolt pickups), and some items do get pickedup but not added to your inventory(the purple logs)
3. Sometimes when you get knocked out, you get respawned and instantly get knocked out again.
Extras:
1. Where is the "bridge" upgrade being built
2. Mini text to reason why i died like, Knocked out- ran out of oxygen/health
3. A button to go back to the menu or controls when im in game and when you beat the game
Extra questions:
1. What do i do with the bite plants?
2. How do i smelt ingots?
3. Asteroids and purple monsters are comming soon?

And a picture to show off my progress also!

Good luck on your game and ill be sure to come nit pick it once in a while since i enjoy it very much! <3

@kikiriki367 that's okay, welcome back!
Thank you so much for the feedback! I've recently had a desire to maybe make the game more combatty and less chill, so I paused working on ^ this version a bit. As a result this version is kinda of in the middle of being updated. Ingots aren't added yet, neither are landbridges. The speedboots should be working though, though I think there was a coding error that meant they didn't actually increase your movement speed!

Thank you for spending so long in my little world btw!
Bite plants are just a troll right now, and asteroids are in and working.. at least they were. They randomly stopped working though and I'd have to figure out why! Thank you SO MUCH for this screenshot! I hope I can maybe use it?

Maybe people like the game in the direction it's going but I feel like its more vague than if I made it a roguelike with combat.. -thinks-

Yes you can use the picture of course! :D

I think the speed boots upgrade didnt take my resources away when clicked. So maybe its a purchase bug and not about not increasing speed? But i might be completely wrong!

Its your game so you can shape it in any direction you wish to! :)) God knows im doing that with mine lol.(Not a financial advice!) No matter what you make not everyone will like it, so might as well make what you believe in :P. And in this case know that im enjoying the game and seeing it grow! So whenever you update it i will be here following through and as always doing my best to break it! hue hue

I wish you the best of luck in further development of this amazing game! Great job! <3

Ah I don't use them at the moment, just Twitter. You can probably still see my tweets though right? Or maybe make a quick little account @kikiriki367?

Thank you @pazzi! I did, but it's currently down as I decided to revamp it all over again, again!
Also LD53 is now, so I might work on the event instead atm!
