Very impressive for 48 hours of work. I like old school feel to the game, graphics and audio go together perfectly. Game is pretty well balanced, the more time you spend on planet the more risky it gets but you might get a lot of good stuff. Also when you are hauling stuff you can't use pulse which is also a nice balancing factor.

You mention in the description that it was a Lunar Lander and Metriod style.  When I saw Metroid, I was thinking at some point I would exit the ship and\/or drone as a character to walk around and explore, but that wasn't there.

Later on, I actually didn't need it at all as I was just breezing through the later levels being a complete murder machine.

I agree that the game is generally a bit easy. I didn't leave a lot of time for balance testing, and I leaned toward making it easier because I was afraid of people hitting a difficulty wall before playing too much.

You must explore each level to find all the sanguinite while retrieving salvage along the way to upgrade your drone. Each item must be lifted back to the dropship, weighing down your drone while you hold it. The more you choose to take from the level, the more numerous and hostile the enemies become.\n\nLevels are procedurally generated, making each playthrough a little different.\n\nStory and controls are provided to you in-game.\n\n***\n\n### Tools Used\n- Game Maker: Studio 1.4\n- Bfxr (sound effects)\n- Bosca Ceoil (music)\n- Audacity (sound + music editing)\n- Gimp (art and stuff)\n\nAll assets are original, as per compo rules.\n\n***\n\n### Development Progression \/ Showcase Video\nhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/ZpMRgW0NaiA\n\n***\n\n### About Me\nThis is my 3rd Ludum Dare, and my 2nd Compo entry. Looking forward to the next one!\n\n***\n\n### Version Information\n- **v1.0.0** Initial submission (Windows only).\n- **v1.0.1** Fixed several issues with the HTML5 port and released the web version, fixed a small terrain collision bug.\n- **v1.0.2** Fixed a bug in item-spawning code that would cause items to not be randomized correctly under certain circumstances (happened especially often in the HTML5 version).\n\nGameplay in the latest version is almost identical to the original submission, just with a few bug fixes (mostly ones that were made apparent during HTML5 porting). If you'd like to try the original submission instead, you can download it [here (windows executable)](https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/zitswge2bcijfin\/Sanguinite_1.00.zip?dl=1).\n\nIf you're on a 4K monitor, it's best to play with the windows executable which can scale up (no fullscreen is available for the HTML5 version due to complications).\n\n***","meta":{"author":[15129],"link-01":"https:\/\/bitbucket.org\/Wheffle\/ludumdare40\/src","link-01-tag":"42332","link-02":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/a0zxbn5ruwbn94g\/Sanguinite_1.0.2.zip?dl=1","link-02-tag":"42337","cover":"\/\/\/content\/91b\/3\/z\/e370.png","grade-07-out":"1","link-03":"https:\/\/wheffle.itch.io\/sanguinite","link-03-tag":"42336","link-02-name":"[Compo] Windows","link-03-name":"[Compo] HTML5 (web)"},"path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/40\/sanguinite","parents":[1,5,9,49883],"love":0,"notes":51,"notes-timestamp":"2017-12-27T17:38:37Z","grade":{"grade-01":64,"grade-02":64,"grade-03":64,"grade-04":64,"grade-05":64,"grade-06":64,"grade-07":1,"grade-08":64},"magic":{"cool":103.23563518418,"feedback":79,"given":58.75,"grade":64.142857142857,"grade-01-average":4.032,"grade-01-result":38,"grade-02-average":4.129,"grade-02-result":18,"grade-03-average":3.282,"grade-03-result":293,"grade-04-average":3.629,"grade-04-result":244,"grade-05-average":3.484,"grade-05-result":262,"grade-06-average":3.734,"grade-06-result":72,"grade-08-average":3.798,"grade-08-result":50,"smart":17.666069312284}},"text":"![pic_title2.png](\/\/\/raw\/91b\/3\/z\/ae18.png)\n\n![pic_drone2.png](\/\/\/raw\/91b\/3\/z\/ae1f.png)\n\n![pic_planet2.png](\/\/\/raw\/91b\/3\/z\/ae1c.png)\n\n\n***\n\n![crystals.png](\/\/\/raw\/91b\/3\/z\/ac17.png)\n\n***\n\n### Description\nSantuinite is a 2D action\/exploration game that combines elements of Lunar Lander and Metroid.
