Love the challenge of controlling the ship, dodging obstacles, and the grand finale! A little difficult, but worth it for the ending :) Well done for a weekend game jam.

ON MY QUEST TO RATE ALL 15 GAMES NAMED SPACE LTD I’M TRYING OUT ALL THE GAMES NAMED SPACE LTD. I guess it was self explanetory…

Very fun little challenge, loved it alot! Took a bit of practice, when you get tge hang of it it's a really nice and responsive way to control your character. Also, the intro made me burst out laughing.

If i had to creteque, probably should've took a better way to display a text, was a bit hard to read. BUT it was in a tutorial, witch was a great addition and made controals and mechanics very clear, so prompts on that.

Overall a very solid entry, enjoyed it alot

P.S. I encourage you to try every space-ltd games using ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/54/space-ltd- link to see what other ppl got! As proud space-ltd creaters should hold onto eachother!

Surprisingly fun controls, especially the way you have to slingshot your way around the planet with the gravitational pull. The planet damages you in too quick of a succession though, so you end up dying quickly as soon as you touch it, which may not be intended. It would be cool if the upgrades were explained as well.

Yo nice game! The "pew pew pew" audio gave me a good chuckle. Great overall design, only thing I found is that the ship felt quite light and didn't carry momentum but that might be just personal preference. Also @SpaceLtdGang

Fun experience. Not the most complex game but tight fun with physics. Love the sounds!

I really appreciate the creativity behind this game. The space theme is well-executed, and the objectives are clear. The incorporation of gravity physics adds an interesting twist.

The gameplay is really fun. The music is quite fun and appropriate. I find that the theme is respected even if a little simple. PS: the monkey cry is really creepy lol

Unique movement mechanic was cool to play with. I like how colliding with the trade goods sends you spinning off :smile:
Fun little game and a satisfying end for sure.

i love that music. I feel like i'm in a mass effect 1 club or hallway.

Very high difficulty, haha! I was never able to fill up my inventory before the controls seemed to stop working and inevitably I'd crash into the planet or the ship would just float along doing whatever it wanted instead of following the mouse. Cool sfx and mood!

Once I got the hang of it, I really got into it. The tutorial was very helpful. I didn't understand at first that the planet had some gravitational pull that you had to be aware of. But I eventually got the hang of it and got good at navigating around the planet. What does the fire base lasers feature for $25 do?

It makes a silly pew pew pew sound. I think its worth the $25 :)

Fun game! I appreciated the tutorial and enjoyed controlling the ship. I didn't notice the asteroids reacting to the tractor beam enough to cause me problems, but they did get in the way enough on their own to be a nice challenge.

The gameplay is a bit confusing, but for the short jam time it's understandable

Pew pew pew indeed! Man that was difficult to get used to. :D Game overed by flinging myself far out of screen it seems, before finally making it. My strategy in the end was to just stay on the right half of the screen and wait for the asteroids to destroy the items on the left, as it was just far too dangerous to fly out there. :D

Yeah I noticed that at the end of my testing and couldnt think of how to balance that in time. Thanks for taking a look at it!

The inclusion of planetary gravity has increased the difficulty of the controls, but I must say, this element is very interesting.

At start I was feeling the control not intuitive. I naturally thought that the ship should have less power when I click near it, and more when click farther. But at last it seems that this is the challenge of this game. It make me very happy when I was able to move the ship approximately where I want.
Fun entry 🙂👍

I really liked the way of controlling the space ship. Took me a quick moment to get the hang of it. Then it a really fun and addicting game.
