I love how detailed the systems are, and the risk\/reward of going up and down hyperspace levels.\n\nSome feedback:\n- I couldn't see the \"max HP\" of systems which made it hard to know how damaged they were.\n- It kept saying \"you can't change levels if your bridge is broken\" but there was no \"bridge\" system to fix, so I never figured out how to do that. (Perhaps \"navigation\" is bridge?) Also \"I guess I'll fix it\" is misleading since it implies that choosing that option will fix it, but it's really just saying the player should fix ... I think \"navigation\" but I'm still not sure.\n- I don't think there's a way to get more ingots, which means once you've spent your two extra ones you have no way to bribe cops or aliens. That is kind of frustrating, I would expect if there's a resource I can use to bribe that I could obtain more of it somehow.\n\nStill, I managed to win on the first try so it was enjoyable and not too hard.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"}],"format":"md","images":["ld57\/wayback-placeholder.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/dazylude.itch.io\/deep-space-misfortunes","text":"Link"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"96681","g_author":"1396241","g_event":"LD57","g_eventkey":"111","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"448084","g_title":"Deep Space Misfortunes","g_status":"WAYBACK","g_place":"344","g_commentcount":"17","g_site2_node_id":"407376","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"407376","n_urlkey":"448084","n_parent":"406845","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/57\/deep-space-misfortunes","n_slug":"deep-space-misfortunes","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"396241","n_created":"1742491904","n_modified":"1778416590","n_version":"1296130","n_status":"WAYBACK"},"node":{"_collation":{"body_sanitizer":"TextUtils::SanitizeHTML via existing importer","event":"LD57","removed_author":false},"_superparent":9,"_trust":1,"author":396241,"body":"A roguelike strategy game about an adventure through the Hyperspace.\n\nUse your mouse to drag card-like tokens to control the game flow, and press the big CONTINUE button to confirm your choices.\n\nThere is no music in this game, nor sounds.
