Contract looked not hard - go to certain planet and destroy lairs of danger cosmic spiders. But turned out that not only spiders have knives(!??) but their lairs are not detectable by your radars so you need to find them manually. But the biggest problem is that you messed up teleporter set up and now it triggers every 10 seconds or something. At least it looks like that teleporter also returns you back every time you do action on spaceship. You give promise to yourself that after finishing this job you will read documentation before doing anything.

*HOW TO PLAY(and maybe even win)*
You need to find all spiders layers and destroy them with you space ship cannon. You can do this after telepoting to spaceship and clicking on possible lair position on the map. Also you can use teleporter to drop medicine or ammo on map or teleport yourself manually.
WASD or arrow - walk
right click - fire

the game requires ability to work out where you are and what action to prioritize.
controls are easy, and the idea of the teleporter is good

I was seating with open mouth listening to music. My brain was off. Great effect. Looks bit addictive. Good job!

Teleport on Fire is a little bit confusing. But over all - interesting idea!

I accidentally teleported into a lake once and couldn't get out of the lake. It was weird and fun because the spiders couldn't get to me.
Cool game and cute art.

Neat concept, could have used a tutorial but figured it out after reading the description lol
The art was neat, and sound effects were pretty well done too.
Could see this being a fast paced don't-starve-esque game

Took some time to get teleport mechanics :D. At first, I thought that the dark-green square is a point on the minimap, but it turned out to be only a landmark (that is also helpful).

Some feedback on where the exact click was, would be very helpful.

Overall, the main gameplay loop is quite unusual which makes this game unique and interesting.
Good luck with entry!

I like the main mechanic of needing to figure out and remember where things are, I haven't seen a game that does that in this way before. Sometimes I got teleported into some spiders after firing which led to me losing, it would be nice if there was a guaranteed safe radius around the player after each teleportation.

Interesting take on the theme, although I couldn't really beat it because it was hard to shoot those spider lairs.
