Really impressive for a one week game. Short and not much of a challenge to finish, though.
Would be interesting to build further on the concept and engine.

Awesome use of 3D! Very thematic. And I really like the attention to detail. It's excessive.
It's not just the fantastic animations on the buildings, but also the menu transitions. The
game is relatively easy to get into. The levels introduce the concepts effectively, and the
player quickly gets to the exciting part.

Spectacular as always, sir. I had some odd graphical issues and a strange crash, but I figured
them out and left a comment on the second diary entry.

Outstanding game. The strategy is involved and the 3d building surface is a nice touch of
originality. It's fun to watch the satellites and resources hover around. The learning curve
is a little steep, and sometimes it can be frustrating placing buildings. Running fullscreen
in 3d is implemented well and the graphics are simple but charming.

I had a crash with resources in: Traceback (most recent call last): File "run_game.py", line
4, in main.main() File "src\main.py", line 29, in main s.think(tdt, pygame.event.get(),
pygame.key.get_pressed()) File "src\scenes\game.py", line 127, in think
obj.think(dtobj) File "src\things.py", line 157, in think self.arrive(self.target) File
"src\things.py", line 114, in arrive where.receive(self) File "src\things.py", line 341,
in receive state.stuff.remove(self) ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list I havnt had
it since. But excellent graphics! Excellent gameplay! Very nice! You should spend some more
time on this. If this had 30 levels and some more game play, it would be sellable! :)

This is just inspiring. I really want to be able to create such stuff in such speed. And to
maintain such quality. This is really good.

The intuitive interface, music, whirling satellites and story snippets all came together in
that magical way and captured me in this little world until the end. What can I say? You have
transcended pyweek and are now a grand master of the craft.

To be honest, I've only played the first two missions, but this is an incredibly polished
entry, marred only by how confusing it can initially be to play. I really should play this
more...

Quite addictive little game, although the ramp up in difficulty to the last level is a bit
steep.

deep game, as usual

Love the 3D moon :) Going to play more -- it's complicated!

Quite impressive. Innovative, fun, eye-pleasing. Didn't play all the others yet, but
wouldn't be surprised if this won.

I couldn't really get very far I'm afraid. I couldn't make power connections, I think. Also
there seemed to be some graphical glitches (MacBook Air with OS X 10.7)

Pretty fun! I had some problems with enabling/disabling power and couldn't beat the final
level (I don't understand why it fails after a while?), but other than that very enjoyable.

"This looks like it can be an amazing game - I say looks because I wasn't really able to work out
how to progress through the game! The overall game idea is very cool. I like the idea of building
on the sphere and having to rotate to find space. Graphically it is very impressive although I
did have some clipping issues (OSX) - the front of the moon would clip over the items on the
surface. This added to the confusion of what was really going on! Sound and music were
excellent as was the overall level of polish. I saw the video and so I know that there is a lot
going on here, I just couldn't quite get to it because it wasn't very clear what to do. Overall
though an amazing achievement for a week!"

I loved that game, brilliant idea and work. Just not sure why, but the buildings are very poorly
visible when I run it on my computer (they disappear while rotating the planet).. Anyways, I
saw the gameplay video and that was better. Nice graphics, story, simply sweet!

Pretty with a nice story. However, the first levels were not challenging because there was no
threat, while the last level's threat was IMO unfun since there was no way to protect against
it. Story also seemed disconnected from gameplay.

It's amazing the quality and the complexity of the game for just one person in just one week.
Very polished. It kind of reminds me of Obb (my favourite until I played this one). It's complex
and hard to master so if that kind of game is not your cup of tea, it won't be very fun. I tip my hat
off to you. Thanks for this great game.

Good graphic, music and very enjoyable. I like a lot you thought about the moons of all planet of
solar system. For me the best game of this contest. Well done!

This one was really good. Really good production. I'm not a big fan of the genre, but it has kept
me playing. I was a bit confused at first about what I could build and what materials I needed and
how to collect them exactly, with all the funny names, but I quickly got past those initial
problems. Well done!
