Pretty sweet entry... the space theme was always close to me and destroying giant cubes in the middle of the universe is strangly satisfying :) Great job on the entry!
Love the art, audio, and it's a strong concept but would be fun if there was a challenge in gathering your team. Did you use boids? Seems like a perfect candidate for this type of game.
I'm glad you liked it, also thanks for suggestion, we will take a look on that!
Really nice game, big fan of the graphics and good job making a 3D game, haven't seen many of those in this Jam!

The visuals are great (love the spaceship models) and kudos for doing a 3D game. I just found the difficulty curve a bit harsh. I destroyed the first boss very easily but the second one destroyed me (despite having several allies).
Yeah, you are right, I think we made second one too tanky, to destroy it faster you need to aim into the core, because cubes around it are very tanky and they are just for blocking your bullets (we made mistake not making it clear to player) . Main idea of the first cube is just to let you gather allies, without worrying to die. Anyways, I am thankful, for taking time and writing feedback!
Probably the best 3D game I have seen so far! The atmosphere is well done, you really feel in space. However, the second boss takes a really long time to destroy (maybe I didn't have enough allies, but couldn't seem to find more around).
Thank you! We wanted to make it very tanky and maybe we made it a little bit too strong, thanks for insight.
Cool game, consider adding some kind of boost ability
Great. The fact that boss divides into more cubes was great.
Exellent indeed. Love the spaceship (here's my game btw would love it if you rated it!)
Excellent game, I really enjoyed it.
I would appreciate it if you'd play my game at https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-5/rate/928761.
The game was really fun, the camera really made it seemed like I was in space. I really liked the models, simple but they looked really nice. The SFX for shooting made it really satisfying to shoot. The only thing i would try to improve is I never 100% knew if I damaged anything, maybe there could be some sort of UI or screen effect when you did. Overall, I really liked it!
Very nice game! the atmosphere, the lightning, the movement- all very well done things! We´re impressed by what you have accomplished in a week!
Only thing missing was a sound reply or something like that for when wsomething gets damage.
Very fun, love the low poly visuals. Only issue is it would have been nice to have some kind feedback when I damaged something. Otherwise great.
I'd appreciate it if you would try my game too.
Such a cool game, I love how you never really know which direction you are facing because you are in space
Really good game! Fits the theme and the design was brilliant! Overall an amazing game! Could you have a look at my game? I would really appreciate it, thanks!
Very nice visuals and smooth flocking behaviour from your crew. I caught every ship close to me and i was barely able to damage the cube / sphere so i gave up. Good job anyway !
Thanks for feedback! The main point of cubes around the sphere is to block the bullets. They are very tanky, although it is possible to destroy them, it is better to aim for the core. I think we could have done something to emphasize it.
It was a good start to an idea, though I couldn't really damage the cube after we destroyed the first one, I can still see myself having a ton of fun with it!
Hey, cool game! havent seen many 3d games yet. Looking good :)
Quite the different game to what I've typically seen so far, and there were some pretty cool aspects to it, especially in its presentation being simple, yet effective and appealing for the most part. My main criticism comes from the core gameplay loop being quite flawed. My issue is that going to collect allies has no actual thought you need to put into it, you just fly towards them and pick them up without having anything actually happen, making this opening phase before the actual boss encounter feel insubstantial busywork. I feel that despite what I've said though, there's a certain grandiose nature to coming up against the boss, so the whole flair and presentation definitely saves this somewhat, and the boss itself is challenging and climactic, with the army you've amassed adding that additional layer of drama. I feel like with some more audio feedback, such as enemy shooting noises and sounds when people get shot, this could be made even better and more exciting, along with adding some sort of point of interest for finding the allies. With these, I think you've got yourself a really great game on your hands.
Thanks, for such feedback. We simply ran out of time in the end, that's why it lacks some sounds, interesting gameplay and so on. We will try to improve this game after this jam, to make it look and feel the way we had in mind from the beginning!
The game had good graphics and all and also the the theme fits , because if u want to finish the boss faster u need more allies to help you , The game had good graphics and there was sound .
something missing is more feedback for the player , Like more sound when the allies get hit , I don't know , but the game was great.
come check out the game I made with my friend.

Thanks for your feedback! Yeah, we know, we had pretty busy week so in the end we had not much time to finish it the way we wanted. That's why some sounds and UI looks kinda strange.
But your game remeber me risk of rain 2 , The bosses , Really great game for a game that made in a week
One of the best games if seen so far in this jam, good job!!
Thank you, a lot!
