Also I was focussing on steering while the text was appearing at the sphere. Might want to show that text on a straight part or maybe use voice so I can steer and listen?

What I was able to rate I did really like. The controls were solid and despite my inability to see more than just a portion of my ship I was able to figure out how to navigate. The audio and mood were really good.
If you want and are able to build a Linux version I would be happy to try this again to fill out the other categories. If not I completely understand.
@marco-schneider Thanks! The feeling of the ship was about the only thing that went right this weekend haha
Thanks for all the other feedback though :slight_smile:
Nice job!!!!
Think it could be an interesting racing game (pod racing anyone?) with the driving mechanics.
The only real criticism I have is that it felt too linear and the gameplay felt lacking, would've been nice if the points of interest were spread out and not guided by the arches, although I suppose you could always go off track.
Really like the stylized water graphics, the foam really added a nice touch. -Peter
It felt refreshing to play something this different, thanks for making it
I really did love the guitar.
The water wasn't loading for me unfortunately but that's problem an issue with my computer.
