This game is essentially a simplified RTS-style game where you fight off waves of enemy units.

The name Space Navels is a joke name that came up early on in planning, but we never thought of a better one. Something about it being like a naval battle in space. That was almost 72 hours ago, though. Who knows what really happened.

Instructions are on the page. It was my friend Ryan and I's first game jam, so we're proud just to have something playable. :) It was his first time using Unity and the first time I've worked on a game in a long time, so we weren't sure what to expect going in. It was definitely an experience.

As far as the game itself goes, we think it's moderately fun and hope you will too!

These ships are so bad ass. I love the designs and colors.

Kind of a brilliant idea kind of destroyed by insane controls. Shift+Left click to fire? What?!

Very hard game. But I like the idea.

Nice game, but the controls are really awkward. But I like the visual style a lot.

The game gets a little confusing due to the unintuitive controls, but the sprites are nice and it's certainly keeping in with the theme.

the controls are a bit cumbersome, but once you get past them the combat in this game is extremely satisfying.

Haha, that's some chaotic fun! The only thing I'd suggest is to maybe change the controls.

Like the idea, one of my favourite genres. The controls hampered the game a little

The controls a are difficult for me, but the graphics and weapons are cool.

Hard game to play but I love idea and graphics.
The controls need to be switched to left click select, right click move and shift left click shoot.

I like the ships and different shooting areas, but if a single ship is already difficult to control, with that many, I'm definitely losing all of them :D

Cool idea and I liked the art, but I really couldn't get my head around the controls.

The control might be a bit too complex. The graphic style is good, and the idea is interesting, good job!

Great entry, fit's the theme, fun to play, just gets repetitive and hard to control everything that is happening! Still fun

The controls are what make this game so complex but it could be so much more fun with regular RTS controls! I like the graphics and the action of the game. It can get confusing at times. Good entry overall.

There is a lot of content here, but the controls felt unresponsive and there was too much happening at once to keep track. Also I would of preferred if not all the weapons on a ship fired at once, maybe just the ones facing the cursor?
