Theme interpretation
The theme Moonshot also refers to a thought which is unbelievable. So I decided to make my game around an ability that is literally unbelievable or moonshot thinking :)

Great game! I liked the variety of mechanics and level design. The models of the characters are also really cool, but I would have prefer some more "speed of reaction" of the player to movement. I understand this might be intentional, due to the low-gravity setting. Nice work!

Glad you like the game! I had to make the player movement a little jerky to give the feeling of walking on a moon. But I agree the player movement could be fixed a little bit!  Thank you for playing my game! If you enjoyed the game, then follow me on Itch.io for more cool games! Thanks again!

That was cool. I really like the gravity flip mechanic. I think if you leaned into that even further it would be super fun.

The one thing I found frustrating was the sluggishness of the astronaut - which makes sense if he's on the moon, but i think it would be more fun to control if he had a little more agility and gravity was a little stronger.

Great sound effects and great character animation. The walk cycle was super cool for the player character.

Great game overall!

Nice puzzle-platformer game! I enjoyed going through all the levels, and the really cool final boss. You have a good foundation, maybe you could try to polish the physics a bit and make the levels more challenging. Well done!
