Loved this game, though i didn't know what to do at first because i hadn't noticed the instructions in this post
Got to a score of 15 before crashing two blue ships into each other. Great game concept, I like it a lot and matched the connected worlds theme very well. The music was relaxing and focusing, I got startled when the explosion sound effect played :P
Thanks!
Fantastic music, relaxing but keeps the right rhythm. Maybe the game could be more indulgent with ship losses (2 or 3?), but it keeps the player engaged and redirecting them to safety. Nice work!
Very nice! The drawn paths work really well. At first I thought the music was overly melancholy, but it seemed fitting once my ships started crashing into things.
A proximity alert of some sort would be a welcome addition, along with a x1.5 speed. :)
Awesome idea! You should release this on mobile.
I loved the music. I wish it would be a bit longer though =P Very solid mechanics. I feel kinda relaxed while playing this ;)
Really good game, while quite simple the idea works really well and really can become quite stressful when there's many ships out.
I got 26 before two hit each other. Cool game, immediately understandable if you've played air traffic control on a smartphone. The added complexity of the moons and orbit paths kept me on my toes, but I still felt the ships moved quite slow, especially when there were only a few.
It's your game, but might I suggest a bright flash of light when ships appear? It would let me know where and could be explained as a wormhole =)
Audio and setting were great. The draw mechanic was a nice touch. Didn't realize moons were a problem at first. I like it; nicely done.
nice game but i think the mechenic will work better on a phone.
Good concept. Agree that would work great on a touch screen.
It would be nice to have option to speed up game. Fun for me!
Thanks for playing everyone! wdebowicz, there is an option to speed up in the upper right corner.
Great entry - some really unique twists on the line-drawing genre, especially having to factor in the moon orbits as well. And if those are trail-renderers for the drawn lines, that is GENIUS ;)
Thanks! Both the orbit and drawn lines are using Unity LineRenderers.
Haha, well done! Reminds me of a game with helicopters, can't remember the name though :)
The orbits make this a really cool and thematic twist on the air-traffic control idea.
Neat! It got real tough once you got more than a few at a time. Took me a while to see there was a speed toggle, that was a great addition :) Music was great.
Cool variation of the flight control games. I like the idea of having to hit moving targets. But it gets too difficult too quickly in my opinion. Good entry!
Nice game. I was way too impatient I think, because I kept speeding the game up, therefore losing ships into the sun before I could catch them (hence my best score being 1, even after trying and trying). I like the music and visuals a lot, and the controls are easy enough.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to place in the final results, you NEED votes. The easiest way to get votes is by rating other games. Judging lasts for 3 weeks following the end of Ludum Dare. For best effect, rate 20 games as soon as possible. Rating more games is encouraged.
MORE TIPS AND DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Love the music and the mood it sets. Nice visuals too.
