Happy Sunday! 👋
This weekend I finished implementing the autopilot system for pilots who need to make a cup of tea, and asteroid mining systems.
Both were big implementations that required many other backing systems to be implemented or improved.
The Interface Panel has had a lot of love directed its way too, making it easier and clearer on how to refuel and equip a module - such as the mining laser.
Greetings pilot! 👋
Spent the weekend making huge progress on ELIZA and Trade Haulers.
You dock with a hauler by flying up within their safe 'docking corridor'. Haulers offer faction-based discounts and bonuses.
ELIZA? Should you forget to check your fuel gauge, for a fee, or psych test, you'll get towed to the nearest shipyard.
You can read more about ELIZA on https://flyslop.com
And play the original #gamejam Edition at https://slop.0xe25f.com
Here's the latest s.l.o.p.date 🚀 🪐
1. Optimisation work undertaken to keep things running smoothly.
2. All planetary bodies in Sol have now been converted to pixel art in keeping with the art direction I have chosen for the game.
3. Plotting, planning, schema-ing, for the next big feature: mining and refining.

Hello! 👋 I'm #indiedev working on S.L.O.P.: a chill-but-grim space haulage game in the browser — contracts, markets, scanning for discoveries, trying not to run the fuel tank dry halfway to nowhere. Sharing builds and messy notes as I go. Glad to meet folks who like orbital nonsense.
