A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

Blacknova is an indie roguelite game in the sketched art style of xkcd comics that challenges players to pilot a spaceship through space, avoiding and destroying meteors, and collecting fuel to escape the gravitational pull of a black hole that is ever-growing as it consumes missed asteroids. Players can upgrade their ship by collecting augments, and strategic decisions are crucial for survival.

Game engine: Godot
Art: Excalidraw
Audio: Pixabay & Logic Pro

This game was made by 2 good friends, Anthony Keelan && Greg Burlet, who have known each other since grade 1. This is our first real video game and was coded in 2 weeks for the Pirate Software Game Jam 14 and was our first time using Godot. Big shout out to YouTube for illuminating the way.

I am stoked to play this later! Looks like it would be fun

Your submission looks awesome!! Love that you get to ram your ship into stuff. I'll give it a whirl too.
