I never say no to some resource gathering and base building!

The oxygen mechanic was a little bit confusing tho, but the general quailty is amazing.

Also the web build couldn't load on my end, it showed that it couldn't find the index.html file.

Unfortunately your HTML build doesn't work but your zip does, a quick little fix and more people would be willing to try your game! Thankfully I can say that it's pretty decent nonetheless! I can tell you worked really hard on it!

Web embed doesn't work. Your index.html file needs to be at the top level of the zip file.

Looks promising but could use a tutorial, I had no idea how the build system works :(

The game plays fairly well, actually really well.

If the object of the game is to fill the squares after shooting enough asteroid to get the materials then I get that. I filled all of the squares but still ran out of O2. So, not sure what else is needed.

Its hard to understand what to do and what the goal is. I realised shooting rocks gives materials. It took me a while to realise i can use them to place on starting platform (only). Can i build more? Why do I build? What do I do against the O2 loss? What is the Goal?

i wanted to like this game but i feel it in unfinished -- i found no way to increase my o2 levels -- too bad it has potential -- thanks for making it -- nice effort for the jam

Ayy, I managed to complete it! I agree with the other commenters: it wasn't immediately clear what the building did. Especially the oxygen! I died like 5 times before I figured out how it worked. For anyone who hasn't played yet: **Build the blue cylinders!** You need 3/4 of them to keep your oxygen up!

I had fun though, the game looks cute and is the foundation of something really cool. I had fun propelling myself deeper into space, nice entry!

As other said a bit more information would be great. I tried what CiaranW said and build even 5 blue cylinders and the oxygen was still going down with the same speed as before. So sadly I was not able to progress, but I see what the game is about with building oxygen tanks, engines and etc.
