Thank you for your decision to book your flight with Trans-Galaxy Airlines. Trans-Galaxy prides ourselves on providing the best experience in private space travel since 2002. Though the flight won’t reach it’s destination for another millennium, to you it’ll just feel like a short nap. Here at Trans-Galaxy, safety is the top priority. Though vast and empty, space is full of unexpected and dangerous encounters. Space pirates, asteroid fields, and unidentified life forms make for scary headlines in the tabloid, but don’t worry, dear passenger, all of our ships are outfitted with an Artificial Intelligence running on the latest version of Windows XP. Prepare to meet your MAKr 23:4 AI Unit.

The MAKr handles all life-sustaining decisions from beginning to end. Pre-flight, the MAKr generates a passenger list, decides how to best allocate the funds to secure safe travel, and selects one of three itineraries. During flight MAKr asses random encounters by choosing the option which guarantees the best chance of you, your fellow passengers, and the ship. Even in the rare case of emergency, MAKr maintains programming which offers an approximation of ethical decision making based on a intricate point system. Remember: MAKr always makes the best decision even when decisions are difficult.

Thank you again for joining the Trans-Galaxy family and may you have a safe and pleasant millennium!

Goooorgeous graphics. I really dug that the pods each had their own stats - and the music was fantastic. Really awesome submission. :D Grats!!

I love this game, its kind of like FTL without the combat encounters. Very laid back and funny.

Great art style, funny writing, satisfying simplified FTL style gameplay. Overall this is a really good cohesive game. Great job on this. I did run into one scene where I think I was hacked and the body text was removed (which is a great idea), but the message explaining that seemed to be cut off mid-sentence, so it wasn't really clear to me for a second what was happening. That's my only gripe. I did nap mode to test it out, but I had so much fun I'm going to go back and try for a coma run later to see how far I can get.

Great game, I like the story aspect and the writing. Gives me a text adventure vibe with added great visuals.

My only feedback was the sound effects were too loud compared the bg music. I turned my volume up at first to hear the lovely piano and then had my ears blasted by the sound effects :P

The UI windows looks so clean and crisp! And I liked the cheer and boo sound effects :D

Overall was a decent experience. Seems like it would be interesting if polished a bit more. I found a lot of the text to be too wordy and draining to go through and a lot of the decisions not feeling like they had a lot of weight to them.

I won! The ui was great and so was the gameplay, there were enough unique events to keep things interesting. Although the first thing I did in the game was press the red button. I mean, how could I not? Anyways I was down to four passengers after that. The graphics were great too! Great entry!

Even though the visuals were relatively simplistic, they all came together extremely well to make a great overall aesthetic. The text was entertaining too, with a couple laugh out loud moments. Great work!

It has a nice feel to it. I just wished full screen actually worked, as it was hard to read some of the text.

The games graphics were honestly really good. I enjoyed playing the game and was even able to pull a win! Some problems were the amount of text you had to go through. Also the tutorial section was too busy. Otherwise cool game!

I believe I ran into a bug that let me cheat my way into winning: negative money XD

That pixel art is just amazing! Really great experience playing it and I had some laughs as well haha. Wish you good luck.

I think I noticed a couple of times that I didn't lose or gain resources when I should've (and I don't think it was a chance either) -- other than that though I enjoyed this! Found it engaging to make the choice between (indirectly) supporting slavery or keeping my energy up.

The art is amazing, the game has some severe funny references and the win music is just awesome, I need more, it can turn into a full successful game.

Art was fun and scenes were entertaining. It is hard to gain much. It's mostly slowing down the inevitable. Game looks and functions well though good job!

Really great game and experience. Loved the music and the voices, loved the graphics and the gameplay. I always ran out of energy and died no matter what I did though, but still had fun!
