In what way does your game fit the theme?
The cubes are stronger together.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code, but the music and some of the effects are free Unity Asset Store assets.

The particle effects and sounds are really nice. But I found the gameplay a little too repetitive. Most of the time I was just moving in the same circles again and again without there being a real threat of getting hit. Also, I had some issues with the game not displaying properly. Top and bottom were cut off except when I switched into fullscreen mode.
Nice movement and sound effects.
Sound efect is amazing, the enemys rotate around you if you keep still.

The particles are amazing! Along with the sound effects it's really good. Seeing the cubes follow you around and destroying the spheres is really satisfying. Great job!
Thank you :-)
The game is simple, but fun. Assets are low res, but that is fine for a game jam. If I were to change anything I would want the movement to be with the keyboard so sort of limits the player's movement more. Other than that, this sort of reminds me of one of the .io games, which isn't a bad thing.
Yea I got a few requests for keyboard control, mostly from people with trackpad instead of mouse. :-)
It's really fun game! It is like Jupiter was alive and could move, hauling all the moons to smash whatever he likes ;-)
9350 points!
Impressive score. I guess I have to add a global highscore at a later time. :-)
Simple mechanic but super addicting. I just hope for better asset use for the overall look of the game. otherwise this could have been my all time favorite. Controls is responsive and easy to get use to, the music fit the gameplay perfectly (could add more for better experience). The game also fit the theme perfectly. Overall, nice game and that's all haha.
Thank you. :-)
I'm glad you liked it, and I appreciate the feedback.
I love cubes ;)
I really like the particle effcts! Generally, sound and graphics are pretty neat. Love the simple yet cool visual presentation.
But the game lacks a little bit of a challenge. I found it was pretty easy not to get hit and I didn't feel the game's difficulty was increasing.
Overall a very cool idea though, that needs a bit more challenge.
Thank you. I wanted to add more obstacles, but I didn't want to over-do it. I'll keep your advice in mind for next game jam. :-)
Wow nice concept!
The game feel is nice but its needs more improvement
I really appreciate when a game can be made entirely out of cubes and still look appealing and feel punchy, and this one delivers. Well done!
Thank you kindly. :-)
Really fun game, great work! With a bit of polishing, could become even addictive!
Thank you for the feedback. I agree, more polish needed. :-)
Lovely Music
Great idea. Feels nice and has good dynamics. Simple in appearance, quite complex to master.
Awesome! Great job! Very enjoyable indeed :) I was always telling myself one more round lol
Thank you. I'm glad you liked it. :-)
I added a highscore for that "one more round" feel, but WebGL didn't like my networking code, so I had to remove it.
Awesome game! Really funny and addictive. The music also has a nice vibe to this sort of gameplay.
Manage to score 6750!
Congratulations
Impressive! And thank you for the feeback. :-)
The camera moves a little odd, other than that it has potential
Thank you. :-)
Nice Music! A pretty neat arcade game. Sometimes I felt like my player died a bit randomly but had a blast giving it a play! Thanks!
