The controls actually worked exactly how I would expect them to work in a game like this, although the camera focusing on the rings instead of the ship when I got close made it feel like they weren't working properly even though I think they were.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":683000,"author_name":"Korinntech","author_uid":"korinntech","epoch":1619862633,"text":"The presentation was brilliant, I love the chromatic abberation and the fun voiceovers!\n\nThe controls took some getting used to, but after a while I started to get the hang of them; I've played a fair bit of Ace Combat, so Pitch-Roll controls are fairly familiar to me which helped a great deal.\n\nAs DecrementedPalindrome pointed out, a lot of the awkwardness around the rings was caused by the camera not being locked to the axis of your ship, which made it tricky to predict your relative orientation to the ring. What Ace Combat lets you do is hold down a button to make the camera track your current target - perhaps you could implement that on the middle mouse button to let the player choose between the two camera modes rather than it being automatic.\n\nThat said, in a game where the only gameplay is flying a ship, I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing for the controls to be a bit awkward. If you could pick them up immediately, the game would be rather trivial - as it was, once I got to the point where I could get to the next ring efficiently, it felt pretty satisfying to feel like I had mastered the controls!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"}],"format":"md","images":["ld48\/wayback-placeholder.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/themattbarnfield.github.io\/deeper-and-deeper\/","text":"Link"},{"url":"https:\/\/themattbarnfield.github.io\/deeper-and-deeper\/QGHSR-win-v1.0.zip","text":"Link"},{"url":"https:\/\/themattbarnfield.github.io\/deeper-and-deeper\/QGHSR-macos-v1.0.app.zip","text":"Link"},{"url":"https:\/\/themattbarnfield.github.io\/deeper-and-deeper\/QGHSR-linux-v1.0.zip","text":"Link"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"76474","g_author":"1182776","g_event":"LD48","g_eventkey":"109","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"371294","g_title":"Quantum Genesis Hyperspeed Space Redux","g_status":"WAYBACK","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"6","g_site2_node_id":"243306","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"243306","n_urlkey":"371294","n_parent":"233335","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/48\/quantum-genesis-hyperspeed-space-redux","n_slug":"quantum-genesis-hyperspeed-space","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"182776","n_created":"1619170062","n_modified":"1779694729","n_version":"760500","n_status":"WAYBACK"},"node":{"_collation":{"body_sanitizer":"TextUtils::SanitizeHTML via existing importer","event":"LD48","removed_author":false},"_superparent":9,"_trust":1,"author":182776,"body":"![Screenshot 1.png](\/\/\/raw\/476\/b3\/z\/3d657.png)\n\n![Screenshot 2.png](\/\/\/raw\/476\/b3\/z\/3ddbb.png)\n\n## Premise\n*You are The Unnamed Protagonist.
