This was a pleasant surprise! Chill music, love it, goes great after sprinting hard on the game jam haha, thank you. Didn't expect the amount of gameplay in this! The art style is definitely not great, but isn't horrible either and is actually impressive how much content there is to explore! I wish there was some danger out there, but I enjoyed this Space Stranding-type game ;)

That's an amazing job for a gamejam game ! It's litterally a space delivery's game.

I like the game overall! I made a similar concept for LD53 so it's close to my heart!
The graphics are good and the controls are okay, it was hard to play from touchpad for me (not your fault).
The music and effects are pretty good as well.
It unfortunately seemed to crash when I pressed E or maybe got stuck on a while loop, and it was a bit laggy in the browser. :D
With some polish this could be pretty strong, good job!

Loved it! So chill. Sargento rastapatata is just beautiful. It's a shame this space is so... limited ^^ Would love more. (Oh my, I just realised how many of you worked on this, good job).

@remus thanks for the feedback! Have you tried to download the windows build? Your bug makes me think that the game has trouble loading the dialogue interface (it freezes for 1 sec on my browser).

@ysendrin I'm on a mac so I can't unfortunately. It's probably that, my game also runs pretty laggy in the browser :laughing:

@remus alas, I think Godot still has some browser compatibilities issues on mac. We'll try to make a mac export tomorrow! (it's 1 am here ^^')

It was surprisingly fun to play a delivery guy and travel across the galaxy while trying to keep your wobbly boxes unharmed. The lore in this game is awesome, had to go through every planet just to meet as many aliens as possible. I'm afraid I might've missed someone :( I need more content like this

liked the flying around, hard to understand the theme though, was pretty and I liked the music, well done :heart:

The game is cool, though I don't see the link with the theme appart from the word "space". There is also a bug (with the web version at least ) if you run out of fuel and hit the restart button, you can't interract with planets anymore.

Great job nonetheless :thumbsup_tone1:

Pretty solid and well-executed gameplay loop! It did become a bit repetitive for me, though. However, I like that the world you have created is quite interesting and varied, well done!

Really liked this one! Here's some feedback in no particular order:

-I absolutely love the title screen, I knew the game was gonna look slick from the moment I launched it.

-The way you had controls on the side of the screen is probably the best control display I've seen in a game jam game, I may steal this for a future submission >:)

-You didn't give any direction on how to accept missions, I was wondering around in space aimlessly until I accidentally went on top of a planet and the interaction popped up. At least tell me to go over planets in your description if nothing else.

-Space art is fantastic, A+

On top of that, I'd probably add more things to dodge in space to make deliveries a little more exciting, it was a little too straight forward to accept quest go to planet get gas accept quest. Anyway I enjoyed the game, nice submission!

Good job guys, a single tutorial image in the beginning explaining what your first objective was would have helped quite a lot.

Simple but fun delivery game. Art is nice, I especially like the character portraits. The sounds effects are appropriate, but the volume/mix is a little out of whack, some sounds are a bit too loud. Good job overall!

I wonder if I'm dealing with French people here...
Good work! I'm a fan of space trucking, and this was a pleasant experience. I'd say, pretty casual but that's all fine by me ;)

Unexpected relaxing game :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Fun to play, characters are plenty of humor and the art style match perfectly.

Very impressive, thank you for this game :smile:

Nice and polished! The character design and the UI are great, gameplay loop is satisfying. My only problem is that it does not fit the theme. Anyway, it was cool!

I had fun here. I didn't think I would have fun, but doing the missions and carrying the loads was really cool. They are so sensitive lol, very realistic in that. But for me it's not within the theme because I thought it was a very large and free space. I gave it high marks for fun and sound. Overall it was pretty cool, good work. Ah, it's a little heavy, perhaps better optimized would be ideal.

Cool concept! And well executed, the game felt pretty polished.

Nice job mates ! Slick graphics, chill music and simple yet good concept :)
(I played the web version and I got a few visuals artifacts here and there but hey its a web version)
I would have like to have minimap of some sort, and maybe the possibility to take multiple deliveries at once (with a mission panel)... But yeah I know it is out of scope for a jam ;)
Great entry!

A lot of good ideas and high levels of polish here -- great job! A couple of gripes are pretty much things I've seen other people mention, such as the possibility of a minimap etc., but of course there's only so much you can do in 72 hours! Really nice job on everything else, and I definitely enjoyed my time playing this.

GOODNESS ME This is hard! But had several goes as this was a lovely entry. Great work on the feel of the movement and ship and the writing! :D Great visuals too and supporting audio. Top marks all round actually!

Found this by playing one of the other space trading games. I like the added twist of being able to lose (and then recollect) the cargo and enjoyed the subtle humor.

The music was very relaxing and the sound effects fit well.

Remarkably deep-feeling world-building through references in the dialogue - as a player, I have no way of knowing what some of the stuff characters are talking about even means, but it makes the world *feel* alive - like there's all this other stuff going on out in The Void. The game is mechanically on-point, I really like the idea of the cargo being hauled on these exposed tethers, it makes piloting the ship feel different than all the other top-down space sims out there. The crate collision sound effects got a little distracting at times, but nothing that killed the fun space-trucker mood. Though my goals in the game felt a little opaque at first (even with the description), I learned very quickly through playing and failing on my first run. The UI design is very clean, and I was able to pick up on what was important and when. Well done!
