I love how the shading and gradients from this type of pixel art are handled, and how strong the blacks in the background were. Both details are indicative of a particular system I don't know the name of, so there's natural synergy there. I also liked the color pallet for this reason.

Thanks so much! I spent a lot of time on the game's assets. ^^

The game was a challenge when there was two spaceships, and impossible when there was three. It just asks too much from the player in terms of coordination (there is after all a human limit), and it's such a simple idea and execution you'd have to change the idea to improve it.
I suggest not introducing a second key, having one key cycle through all the spaceships (though the third spaceship wreaks the idea fundamentally, this might help a little). Or if it was touch screen based you could select the spot between spaceships to swap rather than using a specific key, that could help too.

This is a demo version designed for desktop, the full version is designed for mobile devices and implements the ideas you've suggested: two ships swap their positions when you tap anywhere between them.

You can try it out :)

I love this idea for a game. The web browser idea justifies limiting the player's options without limiting I M M E R S I O N perfectly. It was pretty short (I liked the apparent set up for a conspiracy or secret purpose for the software type plot, without spoiling anything), but all in all a magical experience :D
