Entry for Ludum Dare 38 - Theme: A Small World

You are a drone sent by a galactic dictator to destroy a solar system as a demonstration of power. Explore the small worlds in the small solar system to collect ore. This ore is used to power up your heat shield, allowing you to get closer to the star in the center and achieve your ultimate goal: destroying the solar system by detonating the star.

Well done!  Solid design that feels like the 8-bit era.  The title bar disappearing when the probe reaches the top of the screen is a minor thing but I noticed it as a thoughtful morsel of UI design.

Thanks for the kind words! Glad you appreciated the UI.
