The audio is great and oddly satisfying, the gameplay is very simple and after you get used to use the black holes is very nice go flying around.

Hey, Thanks again, your game was great as well. The rocket / repel jumping was definitely the most fun thing to add.

Hi, Thanks. I appreciate the kind words. It's quite inspiring since I haven't shared my games much prior to this jam. I may look into the concept / game mechanics more as they seem to have a positive reaction from most people.

The game is pretty fun! I would only add animation when the hole disappears to slightly improve the look of the game, but it's good without it.

Developer

Hey, thanks a lot. Glad you enjoyed it. I totally agree, I could've shrunk it over time or something like that. It's quite hard to add all the detail you would like too with all of the time constraints. Happy jaming mate =)

I found it to be a fun little game! At first I was like, how do I get out of this hole? But when I learned you could rocket jump using the black hole, it definitely became one of my favourite things about the game. Just flying through the map was pretty awesome. Would have been cool to be able to control the direct of the gun too, so we could also shoot underneath us and launch up! I liked that the camera zoomed in and out during the flying, that felt very good. One critique here is that when zoomed in all the way, the camera is a little too zoomed in, in my opinion. You can't really see enemies coming and they hit you before you can respond, which kinda sucks. I did find it very satisfying to shoot them, that felt super good, but they did tend to fire one last bullet after I had already killed them, which caught me off-guard a few times. Good job on the entry overall!

Hi, I really do appreciate all the great feedback. I'm really happy you enjoyed this. Like many others, I work a full time job so I didn't have the time to include many of the features I wanted to. Such as the aiming of the gun. I do agree that the main camera should be zoomed out, also surprised you noticed the two camera/zoom mechanic. Anyways thanks again, happy jaming dude ;)
