Limited Space Corporation by TotallyNotYT

[raw]
made by TotallyNotYT for Ludum Dare 54 (COMPO)

This was my first attempt at making a game, having little to no experience in game development.

You work for the massive interplanetary Limited space corporation. Your job is, to fly from one planet to the next, whilst dodging the asteroids in your hyperspace tunnel (Spoiler alert: there is no actual tunnel).

You can control the spaceship using either W A S D or the arrow keys. To restart the level, press the R key.

Good job on your first game! You really nailed the controls, they felt good, and it was pretty fun making adjustments so I would glide on past the asteroids. The lack of tiling background was a bit jarring though, and the main menu is just super small lmao.

@erroneous yeah the main menu was the last thing I worked on. I was running low on caffeine and energy. Might fix in the future.
Thanks for the positive feedback!

Nice work, I made it to the end twice. The first time didn't quite register as a win and I hit the edge to the side of the planet, but I still count it.

It might be good to rotate the initial aspect ratio. It started in Landscape for me, but the primary direction of action is better served by portrait. It might be good to give some visual indicators on the edge of the screen to upcoming obstacles.

Keep it up!

I love space-themed games, so thank you for the next implementation. I liked the voice acting and physics. Maybe it would be better if the ship had more HP. In any case, great job!

For a first game attempt it's quite an achievement, especially under such time constraints.

It controls and functions well, except for the odd graphical glitches I kept having (background tiling and ship disappearing).

@powerofsin yeah I had that once or twice too. Tested it on other computers and came to the conclusion my graphical drivers were bust. Did a reinstall of those and it worked again
