I liked this game a lot.  With a title screen, settings, and instructions, it really felt like a complete game.  I loved the style and the original concept and controls.  This is one of the better submissions that I've played this Jam.

(FYI, I think I hit a bug where somehow my mouse buttons were "stuck" down, automatically using gravity.  I think it happens when I hold the mouse down and then move quickly to the edge of the screen. )

A bit too hard for me but it is a very polished game, and it's an interesting concept too. =

Pretty fun but it took my quite while to get used to the controls

Took me a little while to figure it out, but it's a really cool game!

Great game! Really interesting concept, and graphics and audio really contributes to the spacey atmosphere too.

A fantastic game ! I love the graphics. I idea is very original ad the gameplay is very fun. Also it's a perfect implementation of the theme.

The game itself is a very original idea very well implemented. 

I certainly loved the physics (i have to say i love orbit/gravity like physics), they felt really really good.

The only thing i could say is that i don't know if it's a bug or i don't know how it works but the "Extra Fuel" keeps refilling automatically or keeping active when it shouldn't.

Overall a very very fun experience, and a very good game jam submission :)

Thanks a lot for the feedback, The fuel does indeed refill automatically over time. (Pushing Meteors out of the screen gives you Pulling fuel and destroying them gives you Pushing fuel). Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to make that clear ingame. The right-/left click staying active after releasing the mouse button might be a browser bug, because we didn't encounter it in the normal build. Thanks for playing our  game!

Absolutely fantastic! Simple and well polished. Love the music, post processing, colours and mechanics. Reminiscent of old-school arcade games with a modern touch in the lighting and music.

AverageChapstick and Hexopus, you have a game to be proud of.

Very fun, and good use of the theme. I liked the way that you could use both the pull to divert the asteroids away and the push if there were too many. Colliding 2 asteroids by diverting them using the pull was very satisfying. Only thing was that the difficulty curve could have been a bit smoother. Overall, very polished, simple, and fun experience.

This game looks and feels good! I like the color palette you chose and the graphics were amazing for something created in only 3 days! Though one slight issue in the game is that the difficulty ramps up a little too much after some time. Otherwise, its a great game overall!

Wow, this is great. The first thing I though when I saw this game was “No way this was made in 3 days”, it just feels so polished and overall fun. Also has a perfect implementation of the theme, which I’ve barely seen so far. The art, sounds and overall polish are amazing.

Great game! The visuals are great. Was just confused at first because I didn't realise the attraction effect was already on at the start. The sound effects are real pleasant too

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot! Yeah, the pulling being active by default is a bit weird.

This is a pretty fun game! Love the aesthetics a lot. The gameplay is tons of fun as well, though it's tough to understand when exactly the reverse and stronger gravity effects end.

I'd also add in something about how you get more fuel into the tutorial.

Other than that though, this is a very solid, above average entry!

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot for the feedback, I agree with the fuel sources being very unclear.
