A very nice start to an interesting concept. Just two criticisms: It doesn't really fit the theme and it doesn't really feel finished, mainly due to the (seeming) lack of a win or end condition.
I also felt it needed an ending condition. Also, for some reason I was getting around 40x combos everytime I placed a piece, even if that didn't close anything.
But the graphics are cool and the idea is so interesting!
Fantastic! Completing a space station really felt like an accomplishment. I really enjoyed my time with the game. I had to restart to get out menus, and I finished a station and the game didn't end, BUT it's a great concept done well.
Wow, I really liked this once I figured it out :) I like that you make it so you can link together modules, it's very well-planned. One of the first games I've played in the competition where I see how it could be developed into a full game -- that I would pay money for :)
Yay, I won on ~5th try :) Pretty interesting. If you want to do some post-jam improvements, a tutorial would be useful. I missed most of possibilities by not reading notes :D
Really neat puzzle game. Took me a minute to figure out what I was doing, but when I figured out that I could switch out pieces it was almost too easy. I was almost able to make the Satellite of Love from Mystery Science Theater 3000. :D
Woahhh cool concept! Would be nice to see some more constraints or objectives to make it more interesting or challenging. The combo system seems a little buggy, but I had fun building this monstrosity: http://i.imgur.com/S3N2MCR.jpg
Pretty much just what drewfitz said. Despite this though I really liked it, the polish of the design was great and I think you are not too far off something really awesome and fun here, maybe think about developing it further.
Nice game, I found I could often end up with a ship I couldn't complete, but it didn't fail or let me know. Or maybe I could continue, but I had hexes with open sides that I couldn't add to.
Anyway I think this could be turned into something really cool.
Very good puzzle mechanic, with combos and highscores. The station becomes unsealable due to wrong pieces, so I guess that's the endgame condition. The sound's good, and the graphics are great. Some pieces changed shape on rotation, though :| Oh yes, the theme was really loose though.
A mixed bag. A great idea I think, but it's not really finished I feel. Great moody sounds. It looks very polished and plays pretty smooth mostly, but clicking another part is then again not so easy. I have the feeling that it needs a bit more work. In the end I ended up playing rising lava of doom :)
Really nice game, love the graphics! I included this game in my Ludum Dare Compilation video series, if you'd like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/ph4Rui-mL0k
I didn't really feel the theme :/ however the concept was very good. It was a little confusing at first, but I managed to get it with a little thinking. I feel that it lacks a little bit of polish, mainly on the menus and the win condition; dunno, it kinda feels incomplete.
Maybe you could make some levels where there's a minimum area that you have to cover and it scales with difficulty? That way the game doesn't feel like it ends too soon :)
Interesting idea and a fun to play game. I think I had luck and successfully made an airtight space station at the first attempt. Maybe the game would better work, if the player isn't able to choose a part, but has to place the given part before receiving the next one (like in tetris).
Took time to get used to but nice take on a tetrominoes based game (Pretty sure that's the name for it but I don't know) although I think there's too much freedom in being able to swap out pieces and it could do with some objectives like building a station of a certain size etc. Other than that, the game was pretty fun to play and the graphics and audio do give that in-space kind of mood.
Lovely!!! It would be so cool to have a pipemania-type deadline. People running through the ship, like in FTL, or comets raining down on it. A few missions would make all the difference in the world! Rating this very high <3

When does it end?
One little thing, the black text under the score is almost invisible
But the graphics are cool and the idea is so interesting!
Addictive! 5 for Fun!
but what about win or loose conditions?
Anyway I think this could be turned into something really cool.
Oh yes, the theme was really loose though.
I found some bug when you try to fit wrong pieces.
Great moody sounds.

Would like t see a post-compo version!
