The most basic scan is currently just pressing space to register a planet, star or spacecraft, but there will be more to come. They're intended to be similar to experiments/reports in KSP (pictured) 🚀

Upcoming discovery mechanic in AstraX, a 2D space exploration game 🚀

It simulates mapping & exploring an entirely unknown world. Instead of showing data about planets, the UI shows discoveries you made of them

Orange&Green = implemented as of v0.7 (coming soon) #gamedev #indiegames #spacegame

Did you know AstraX does not make use of a physics engine yet? 😂Integrating one is planned for +0.8, it's the single decision I regret making

Am going against all gamedev advice here. Don't do this at home, devs...

Resetting settings to factory defaults by tab/category. How many games let you do this? 👀

A requested feature by @chappuvt.bsky.social 🚀🫶

Some of you may have wondered: Why am I spending so much time on the UI of AstraX?

This is a data-driven space simulation game, like Dwarf Fortress or Rimworld. You not only explore the world through moving around, but also through its UI. Oh and I like doing it 😊

Look at the time! It's #screenshotsaturday

I finally managed to make the GUI colors fully user customizable. GUI skin can now be replaced & configured via json.

Here's your 50 shades of spacecraft editor 🚀

More UI work to show for #screenshotsaturday
Shaded button sprites to make them look extra shiny ✨ Am probably one of the few gamedevs that likes doing UI 😂

Current progress is mostly related to interstellar trade plus some new content (trader types & trade items) #gamedev

Did you know ~42% of my game is UI code? Now you do 😂

Followed by "app", which is infrastructure for game data and modding support, and "io" that provides file operations or converters for binary, JSON & SQL
