It was a little difficult at first, but I got the hang of it quick and it was a lot of fun. I like the idea of deploying satellites from the bed of a truck, I think it would be really cool if there was some aspect of controlling the satellites after dropping them off, making sure they stayed in orbit. Just an idea. I also loved the title screen art. Great job!

Despite never successfully launching a single satellite, though, I love the concept you've got going here. The whole idea of rigging up a *truck* to launch payloads into space is *hilarious* - I award points just for that.\n\nAnd yes, I would sooner trust your fictional space delivery company to get us to Mars than Elon Musk. (At least *their* truck only explodes when it *hits* something!)\n\n(Also, yes, I can read the actual title you've got going here - \u679c\u3066\u3057\u306a\u3044\u7a7a\u9593, \"Endless Space\" ;) )","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":976532,"author_name":"BrahGold","author_uid":"brahgold","epoch":1683688248,"text":"I really liked the idea even if I had real trouble with performance problems.
