The gameplay and graphics are really solid. Only issues are the main menu overlap and the UI in the game is a little to big, in my opinion . But still hat a lot of fun playing the game
Thanks - I appreciate the comments!
But I can't play level 4 and 5 because the settings menu blocks the buttons
Yep, I'm embarrassed by this :(. What resolution do you run your screen at? I want to make sure I cover everyone's setup when I fix this.
960x600
TY!
It's a little bit difficult but interesting!
Thank you!
Really unique game! It's challenging and fun to play. Good job!
Thanks for checking it out!
A couple people went down the route of a gravitational puzzle game, and this one's by far the best. Feels nice, good visuals, really nice I can see the trajectory of the ship too. Only thing I'd wish for is a button to send the ship but other than that a really really well done game. And your first jam too!
Thanks for checking it out!
Such an original and well designed puzzle game, I love how fun it is to play with black and white holes, giving the player the chance to pass each level using different strategies. Also, the rockets movement feels so smooth and it is very enjoyable to watch.
The graphics an audio are cool and fit well within the game, the only advice I would give is to polish a little bit more the UI.
Congratulations again on your submission, it is an amazing game and Im sure you will do great in this jam!
Thanks a lot for the compliments!
Really innovative and fun the UI could have been better and the audio is really awful sorry
Thanks for checking it out! I promise I'll be fixing the audio
Fantastic game. I think the audio of the black and white holes was a bit ear piercing, but otherwise this was really well made!
Thanks for your comments! I'll be adding volume controls for SFX in the future, in the meanwhile I hope your eardrums are OK :)
Some of the sounds are really headache inducing.. other than that it is a really nice concept!
Thanks for checking it out. Volume settings will definitely be included in the future!
I normally like to write detailed comments, but for you I have only two words: more levels!!
This is so addicting. I could find myself playing this for hours. I hope to see you continue work on this after the jam, but great job on it in its current state. Thanks for sharing. I called you out on the discord so hopefully you get a few more rates in the next hour or so.
Here’s my game if you’d like to check it out. https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-3/rate/572795
Thanks a lot for the feedback + the shout out - it means a lot!
Very cool idea! There is some work to be done on the UI and the timer / scoreboard, but one of the most unique ideas on here! Awesome!
Thanks for your feedback!
Very unique game, i liked it! The sounds that you used reminds of a game called Signal Simulator. Good Job! And the game is pretty hard.
Thanks for checking it out!
I made a similar game last year :) Like it! I will say the game is quite difficult. One feedback is when I move a hole with my mouse, it won't affect the path of the ship, I will prefer actually that it continuously interacts with the physics. Overall you did well!
I'm glad you like it! Thanks for the suggestion - it's definitely something I'm considering.
Great gameplay! Very innovative. The graphics are ok. The sound effects were rather unpleasant to my ears, but the music was decent. You might want to see how the anchors in Unity's UI work, I was unable to enter levels 4 and 5 because transparent image was blocking the buttons. The first three levels were good though.
Thanks for the feedback! I'm very embarrassed about the menu ("It looked fine on my machine!!" lol). I'll be adding a volume slider in for SFX in the future as welll.
Very enjoyable game! The art style and the music go very well together and I love that you have to manipulate the ship with black and white holes instead of controlling the ship yourself, very clever idea. Overall, a very well done game!
Thanks for checking it out!
The art style and idea are really good. I like that it let you to solve the levels however you wanted. Like using both holes or just one, or all of theme. I found a bug when you place a hole over an asteroid, it got stuck and couldn't used it. Also i couldn't play the level 4. Nice game.
Thanks for checking my game out! Do you happen to remember what level the problem asteroid was on? I'll try to fix that bug.
I randomized and stumbled upon this, totally worth it, original concept matches with theme perfecly😁 great work
Thanks for the compliments!
Rated. Forgot to do this earlier =)
Thanks for stopping by!
Great job on your game. If this was your first game jam hope you enjoyed the journey of development. I really like your art style and music. Cool mechanic enjoyed pushing and pulling the player. Though your UI is kinda messed up in the start screen. Good job.
Thanks for the comments! For sure I'll be fixing that menu.
I like the concept. The physics are excellent. Great work!
Glad you liked it!
