This was a very interesting game, the corporate masters are forcing you to resub. I only found 3 endings but it was fun. The graphics are good and the background music was good! The combat was a little difficult but rewarding as one of the red the corporates ships exploded, then I died lol. Good game :)

https://ldjam.com/users/littlebear thank you for playing!
the two ways you die are actually 2 different endings, I don't know if you counted them :)

I like it! I couldn't find every ending, and really wanted to find 5, since 4 seems to be the "good" ending.

Great entry here! Cute graphics, fun and moody soundtrack. Fight the corporate oppressors! Good little story and just overall quite well put together. I managed to find all 5 endings, that last one was tricky to pull off correctly! :tada:

Although I'm so far unable to get endings 3 and 5(probably down to skill) but the mood of this game is amazing, especially when you run out of spacetime while in the centre.

Nice game idea! I only managed to find 2 endings, so some kind of hint system on how to reach the other would've been nice.

Cool little game! 😄

I only got two endings, I'm guessing if I were to explore a bit more, I could get more.

One small comment: In the default viewport size on Itch the text was very blurry and almost unreadable for me. Maximizing the game solved the issue. Maybe you want to set "Start Maximized" on Itch to avoid this?

In any case, I enjoyed this one! 😊

@matt-blake glad you liked it! here is a hint if you want to try: ending 5 is a combination of ending 3 and 4. Good luck!
@bloodyaugust Thank you a LOT for playing! well done!
@panda-king-976 and @cogcomp I will put some hints in the description. Thanks a lot for letting me know! and thanks for playing!

Got all the endings! Great game, really innovative, music was great :)
Only thing I could say is I was not a fan of moving with the mouse at first, but I got used to it!

I really like the little dust particles when you click. Nice detail!

Interesting little game. Good idea with the rocket flying through space and solving the situation. I can imagine it would be a really interesting game after adding content and expanding the choices.

@thibaud to be honest I never expected that someone would get all endings when making the game. Especially the last one :D Ludum Dare community keeps impressing me. (You are not even the first one)

@collopi Thank you!

Interesting game! Was it inspired by Outer Wilds? I got all endings except the last. I wish I could move with the keyboard btw

@aviv-levy of course it was! Did you try seeing the hints ? They may be useful for the last ending

Nice little distopian nightmare/adventure! I got a few of the endings but I wasn't good enough at dodging to get what I think we all wanted.

Background music and art were enjoyable. The small play area made it worth exploring and since you can only explore some directions in one life it wasn't even bad to get game over except in fights.

Flying felt pretty good. It was "just" a click-to-go-there scheme, but something about the peppy motion and the little wake of circles really sold it being a ship for me, and I found it pleasant to fly around.

Unique entry, nice job!
