But then again, nothing is set in stone yet. This is all a learning project for me. I'm a webdev by trade, and my main focus now is to make something playable which isn't a tutorial :)

The main game loop idea is that you fly your ship from dock to dock. After you land you plan your route to the next dock, a map will reveal several options. Obviously there will be rewards big or small depending on how far/dangerous the route is that you're gonna pick.

I'm not a bird guy, but I might become one. Also pixeling those birds must be very meditative.

Haha looks great! This is one of those features, that when testing productivity goes out the window. It'll take up the rest of the day just "testing".

I love this kind of approach. Tutorials should be a last resort imho. Learn by actually playing the game.

Having multiple floors to explore does sound nice indeed. Also I don’t think it looks that bad or weird actually like you said. It is hard to see if there are multiple floors though.

Don’t give up yet, I think you could make this work if the second layer has smaller or more narrow elements so that there is less overlap. From this restriction comes a purpose too, like a shield battery, Weapon module, stealth module…

Yes! So much yes! Sometimes I say: you know this is a nice game, it could be better though, if it had goblins instead of birds/trains/soldiers/…
