Story:
You are a vendor from Venus in a time where the planet has long been colonised. You left your home in search of riches but now your stranded, millions of miles away with a broken warp drive and your entrepreneurial pursuits have almost left you without a credit to your name.
Buy and trade resources with planets, fend off pirates and mine deposits in an effort to be able to afford the costly warp drive repair.
I will continue to develop this in my own time, I intend to add more planets & resources as well as a crafting system.
This is my first time using GameMaker, the jam was an excuse for me to try it out properly, I'm pretty pleased with what I came out with even though I lost about 12 hours of work.
Features I want to add:
Crafting
Sell All
Improved AI + Spawning Mechanic
