Wall jumping was intuitive enough, I'm just bad at timing the jumps. Got stuck further in the level, after doing a few wall-jumping sections, so maybe I just hadn't encountered the bug you are talking about yet.

Congrats on releasing it! Great result for a game made in a week.

I did give it a try even though I'm not great at jumping. With a controller (the game does support a controller ๐Ÿ‘) I managed to get a bit farther, but still failed, hah.

A small trick I use to give spacey backgrounds more life is to plop a Particles2D node with tiny-twinkling-floating particles. Takes little effort but improves things a lot. Would be fitting for a space game.

I also think the game would work well as an HTML5 game. Itch supports those, and they're more convenient and accessible since they don't require players to download EXE files. People tend to be skittish about downloading things.

I used to work 12 hours night shifts. When I had the opportunity to set my own schedule I chained 12 hours night shift PLUS 12 hours day shift so I can have a lot of free time later. So, 24 hours of work, 24 hours without sleep. It was a low intensity IT work in a data center, but still, not good for your body.

I have Mastodon and BlueSky, they aren't dedicated to 100% pixel art, just my personal blogs where I post all the things that I do. But mostly pixel art and gamedev!

Shader baker on export! Really, really nice. I wonder how much build size will increase though.

It's my own work. So, thanks! I have BlueSky and Mastodon blogs, they aren't dedicated to 100% pixel art, just my personal blogs where I post all the things that I do.

Haha yeah I can see that now.

Thanks! Yep, my own original work. I'm using Aseprite since that's what I started with and got used to, but Pixelorama is great as well.

Nice lighting on the shuttle!

I don't. I feel it takes a few hours (4-5) for my body to wake up enough to feel hunger, and if I force myself to eat breakfast I feel queasy. So I just eat black coffee and move on.

As a read-only SO user - thank you for your answers!

 

And maybe little alien critters. Or maybe they are just weird-shaped rocks, who knows!
