Intersolar Super Spaceway (Excellent!) by popcorn897

[raw]
made by popcorn897 for LD30 (JAM)
Sorry to people not on windows. I am not versatile enough to know that stuff.
And sorry to everyone who takes the source code. It's crap.

We didn't quite finish the game, but this is a playable version of it! We decided that we wanted to finish it though, so we will be!

Probably Glitchy!

Timelapse is finally done!

Really liked this, shame it ended so abruptly, the Windows 98 theme was very cool!

The game tells me to choose a planet and I can only select the moon?! Are you going to ask me to press "any key" next? I don't have such things!

Joking aside, it was quite nice both asthetically and gameplay wise although super short (I think the game congratulated me, I was too busy clicking and skipped it).

The controls are somewhat weird, why not just use the keyboard for everything (arrows to move, space to shoot)? It was also somewhat hard to figure out what I was supposed to collect and what I was supposed to avoid. It is also somewhat strange that the game scrolls vertically but the width is greater than the height, giving the player almost too much room horizontally. The fact that you could shoot in an angle made it a somewhat sensible decision though.

All that aside, this is a solid entry! Good job.

Complaints noted. We will implementing an alternate control scheme and adding some visual reference to what is good and bad. Thanks for the feedback!

Honestly, this way more fun than I expected. Shame that it was so short. The Windows 95 theme was interesting :D. Best part was the battle with many many objects and shooting them with the secondary cannon. Good job!
