Hexodus

#raylib-gamejam #madewithraylib #raylibgamejam #raylib

An idle game about cleaning up space trash.

Take control of the Hexodus I, a ship doomed with the task of cleaning up all the space trash in order to get back home. Mine trash with your lasers, upgrade your ships technology, and even bring in the help of additional ships!!! Arm and launch the mega-laser after you've unlocked everything in the tech tree for maximum effect!
