made by OwnGamesGamer for Ludum Dare 45 (COMPO)

My first game so its a simple one and has simple art style. First you make your planet and then u play on it as a green little alien that wants to leave his planet. Gather up resorces to build a rocket and leave it. (If you having troubles lounching the game I'm sorry pls don't give me bad rates coz most ppl played it I know played it with no troubles but my sister so that's how I know it could not work)

This was a fun little mining and crafting game. The progression worked well. I built a rocket ship, and put my alien in the ship. Next stop, Area 51!

I found myself mashing the 'E' button at the mine without realizing that I was out of energy. Some hint that energy is needed to mine would help.

Also, 393.63MB is really big for this game.

It's a good idea and although it's simple, it does its job. 400 mb is too much for such a simple game. I believe you are more familiar with Unreal than other tools, but consider publishing the game on Itch or Gamejolt instead of Mediafire.

Maybe provide a different link for the download. 400MB via mediafire took ages for me.
Was a fun little playthrough, the main protagonist was a little glitchy. Somehow I figured everything out just by playing though.

@owngamesgamer you can publish this Windows version on Itch or Gamejolt. It does not have to be a web version. I think it looks more "professional" than publishing to mediafire, even though it's a game jam.

Don't you call my planet 'shity' imma gonna establish civilizatoin on it!!!!!!
gr8 concept that was executed well.. the only suggestion i can think of is using a simpler engine than UE4. the moment i booted up the game it asked me to install some prerequisites and TBH NGL i dont have a great PC so even in the game there was a slight latency between me pressing the key and the keystroke getting registered. The file size was a bit too much as well. maybe you can try godot, unity, game maker or a framework on top of a normal programming language next time!

@pranavftw i cant C# so unity is not an option i can a little C++ but not enough for a game makeing I decided I will use UE couse it has the blueprints and it was easy to make sorry for the file size I shouldn't made the game with starter content in UE next time will be different

@owngamesgamer If you are good at C++, just use SDL or SFML frameworks for c++ game dev!
