Welcome brave cosmos explorer!
I've got you a help request from an AI-controlled spacecraft called V-Next. Would you respond and explore endless space deeper and deeper to find traces of life?

however yeah its hard to understand how to actually mine or obtain fuel?? it just puts like a marker on it or something
and also when you run out of fuel it just makes you infinitely boost and constantly spinning in the direction u were moving in. was there meant to be a death screen??
but yeah the art was great and the concept is nice :>
Feels like to be successful you have to rely on momentum and floating a lot, which makes the game a fairly slow paced casual affair. This can be good, but the lack of audio makes it feel a bit tedious.
The mining mechanic wasn't clear at first, and I still sometimes find asteroids that just don't seem to be minable, and it's not clear why.
Controls were also a bit awkward.
Overall though, nice comfy little entry. Good work!
