First big LD entry of mine and my friends. Simply put, you and your ship are the only trade connection of two planets. While travelling from one to another you are affected by gravitation fields of other space objects. Find out the best trajectory to safely land with your shuttle. You can help yourseft with a single afterburner but more challenging is to finish levels without it! -------- Mousewheel - adjust launch power Mouse - rotate shuttle LMB - launch shuttle/use afterburner R - restart in case of need ESC - return back to main menu --------

Nice concept, but if you want more people to play I reccomend placing the executable in the base folder, currently you have to dig for it in the BIN folder. also, I wish the after burner had some effects, more force to it, or some type of significant feedback so that i can actually tell when, how, what it is doing.
@parahunter, @GraveyardPolice: afterburner does really help even it's a bit weaker. You have to know that force vector of afterburner adds itself to the main movement vector of the shuttle. We tested all the levels so it is possible to play them without the AB and in each level we found at least one or two alternative ways using the AB. If we will continue with development we will do something about the power.
To everybody who has linux or mac: you can try some kind of emulator but I don't have any mac or linux computer so I cannot port and test it, so sorry. Maybe for some future LD I will have some linux installed for porting, but right now I am unable to do so.
Very safe approach on the theme and a good execution. Solid gameplay, but I feel like it didn't quite hook me. Something was missing, but I can't say what. Maybe the afterburner should be more powerful and a required part of the solution for each level? The music got somewhat annoying and in my opinion the predictor was too long. Still, a good solid game. Well done!
Nice game! Feels complete and well done. I included it in part 24 of my Ludum Dare 30 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/3RN80xyak-c
