Notes:
->The game has balancing issues (it's pretty hard). With your feedback/sugestions we hope to fix those problems!
->We are noticing some bugs, but we either don't have time or have a windows pc to fix it with Game Maker. But in the weekend we'll be updating the game!
I liked the idea of an open map that you should chart and explore on your own.
A few notes about the game:
- Getting a clue for the star position only on the first few seconds of gameplay is quite rough. - It took me quite a while to understand that you refill food when you touch land. Before that, I would avoid lands at all cost, since the ship get somewhat stuck. - Since on your first trip you reach clouds that disappear, it's not clear that the map has limits. I see a few possible solutions: 1. Change the edge of the world. Instead of using clouds, you could play with the old belief that the world ended at its edge and put a fall there... 2. Make the world "circular". Instead of getting blocked, whenever the player reach when edge, they could continue sailing from the opposing edge... - Trying to connect stars that are really distant from your ship yield some interesting "bugs"...
