Hi! I'm working on the new UI of my space shooter and management game. How does it look?

It's a pretty good start. Here are some thoughts:
- I really like the background and what you've got going on with that faint grid.
- Consider giving your camera dragging a sense of "momentum" such that when you release, it floats a little before stopping. Right now it doesn't seem fluid.
- It's really, really hard to see the black hole. Maybe it's the video quality, but if you hadn't told me it was there I would've missed it.
- Your gray buttons seem like stock buttons. I'd find a way to give them a little more umph.

Looks pretty good. The rounded square buttons don't look so good though. You could try to:

- Add transparency and glow for a hologram-like look (an example: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/lLNCcWxMpcU/maxresdefault.jpg)
- Change the colour of those grey boxes. Maybe a different shade of blue could work.

The usability is fine I guess. Hard to say without actually using it, but there aren't too many elements so it should be very straightforward.

First of all good job! It looks really nice!

And then what i was thinking about was to change the cursor and the big circle wen you move.
It could really add a element of total immersion if it would be as beautiful as the rest of the UI.

thats all i could think of that has not been said but like i said A+ for the desing!

Looks pretty good, as said before your buttons look like something you'd find in a simulator. Also it's hard to say without playing, but it looks like it could be hard to find specific planets quickly, like when there aren't any stars visible, maybe a minimap you can click on to move to places quickly, or indicators on the edge of the screen pointing to nearby locations, but it might not be a problem.
