This is never really warned and just kind of \u201chappens\u201d.\nThe player ship (in window mode) does not remain in the center of the screen but rather moves towards the direction he is moving (particularly noticeable when moving north or south) which causes some classic 90s \u201cspawn deaths\u201d aka something spawns and I cant avoid it because I couldn\u2019t see it.\nBlack hole is an interesting mechanic but one that is never explained and only thing I can get by intuition is to get as far away as possible. May be enough, maybe not.\nBackground is tiled yet is not designed to be such, resulting in \u201csquare\u201d after \u201csquare\u201d being painfully visible. It\u2019s a compo game and part of a jam so it may be unreasonable to point out.\nThere does not seem to be any real difficulty increase in time, ad least in my limited play time.\nFeedback on inhabited planets, such as a ding or a more visible graphic would be nice\n","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Shakedimus","author_uid":"1105339","time":"2018-09-01T09:55:08Z","epoch":1535795708,"modified":1535795708,"text":"This is the first game in this jam with this control scheme that is implemented well.
