What do you like about your game?
A wild two-week experiment resulted in a relatively decent prototype with promising dynamics.

Love the polish and the chill vibes! The concept of being a light ray avoiding black holes and lighting up stars is fun too!

Botanic AberrationThe visual style is beautiful, the UI and soft colors and effects are just so good! Connecting the constellations correctly is a fun if underexplained mechanic, but I did laugh when I completely messed up Taurus and got a "Taurus...?" at the end. Unfortunately I had a bit of trouble playing it for a long time because of the way the screen rotates itself entirely when you turn -- everything spinning around you plus the player's heavy turn radius was pretty disorienting. The polish was incredible and it felt like a popular mobile game.

Annihilation PartyHi, just finished checking out your game, it feels very polished and relaxing. This could be a very cool project to extend and polish even further after the end of the jam! Cool minimalistic visuals and particle effects. Really good job with this one! One of the games I enjoyed the most until now. <3
Good luck with the jam, you deserve a lot more <33333

Hungry OutcastThis is so polished and enjoyable, from the visuals to the music, and the gameplay is executed so well by being approachable but also offering a challenge to whoever wants to go for maximizing points. I liked it a lot.

Aberrant ForceLove the gameplay and polish! I think this is a really cool concept and I loved seeing the names of stars and constellations! I think if you took this game further, it could do with some kind of auxiliary mechanic, like smaller particles you have to pick up to keep going faster (a bit like slither.io) or something like that, to keep it interesting between the stars. Great entry overall :)

Backpack Blaster!I really like the mood of the game with its music and clean visuals. I wish the controls were a little more responsive. It feels really difficult to control. Maybe the star detection box should be larger. When I miss one, it's very hard to turn around to get it.

Dream ShiftI’m glad you enjoyed it! I didn’t have much time for the level design during the jam, so all the ‘dark matter’ regions and black holes are currently in almost random places. Now, when I look at the game, I want to, of course, rework the levels. I think it would be nice to have more relaxing, zen experience here, with occasional challenging zones.
Interesting game, I think I never played anything like it. UI somewhat gets in the way of playing when reaching a star, obscuring some information (maybe making it transparent would help), but otherwise the game is a pleasant spacey experience. :)
