Basically you're a spaceship flying around, waiting for help becuse you're lost in *space*. You're low on power though, so you destroy objects around you to gather minerals from which you get energy. There are also some space pirate drones, but don't get too excited; I was making them the last 1,5 hour before the end of the jam. There is also probably a milion bugs. Minor and major.
Still, it's my first Ludum Dare entry ever, so please tell me, where did I do something wrong, and where did I do something horribly wrong. MrSpaceshipMcSpaceFace_2017-08-01_03-58-20.png

Graphics are nice, could be a little easier.

Despite destroying rocks and collecting orbs, I'm unable to survive. Nice graphics. Still better than No Man's Sky :)
Also, the font you've used makes text very hard to read.

It's quite nice to play, there just isn't much to do and it's really fast and easy to run out of power. Have you considered an ability to lock your weapon to a target instead of having that line thing? Should make it less of a bother. Could be made a bit faster too. But felt fun.

A minor annoyance is how the menu uses different controls than the game, heh.

Graphics are nice, but gameplay lacks a little, I think that ship runs out of power a little too fast.

I like graphics. Unfortunately on my 3440x1440 screen menu is almost unreadable, so it took me a minute to realize that I'm already in menu :)

@ruba Yeah, I've had some scaling problems while creating UI, but got rid of them on most resolutions. Didn't really expect anyone to play on that resolution, though. Sorry!
