The universe is an ocean. Let's go surfing ! Kinda 'moonshot' thinking. But ..someday ! Until then...a game would realize that dream . Let's go !

Quite simple but still a lot of fun! I enjoyed doing 360 tricks jumping between planets. Also to ride the Moon upside down is something you don’t see every day :) Good job!
Great music with the fun art style. Cool little game to kill a lazy afternoon.
Hahahaha I started playing this was literally laughing the whole time. I loved the music in combination with the astronaut surfing on the planets. It was so in congruent it was hilarious. Absolutely loved it haha.
Would appreciate it if you played my game Moon Blob! https://avatar-nick.itch.io/moon-blob
Really good job! Simplistic but yet addictive which is a good mix!
That soundtrack! Headbang your way through the solar system, there's nothing better haha.
Fun and simple. Adding in some animations would really help. And maybe a score system along with button combos for tricks. It'll take away from the simplicity but add a lot of depth and a high skill ceiling. But if you were going for a really simple one button experience then you hit the nail on the head!
simple... genius. music makes me want to grab my board and tell winter to leave. Back/front-flipping through the galaxy? what more could i ever ask for. cool game
Quite simple gameplay, but it works :-)
This was hilarious. At first I was going to make a comment about making sure the player doesn't rotate, but whether it was intentional or not, it makes the game better because it's even funnier to surf the planets upside down.
I was losing to a lot of failed jumps until I realized I could double jump. Also I was thinking "it would be nice if I could see my score" then I realized that the WebGL thingy had clipped where the score was, so full screening fixes that issue. It reminded me of the type of game I'd play in middle school in computer class, where I would try to beat all my friends' scores.
Cool. At first it seemed that it was necessary to increase the speed of movement of the planets, but then I realized that it was better to add some tricks such as a somersault to the game so that you could press a button and watch the tricks while flying between the planets :)
extra points for the bonkers idea
Nice game!
Great music and original style/look to the game.
I agree with the points about locking the rotation. It felt a little slippery; and also I felt there was an impossible jump as well. I ran into a similar problem after having played my own game so many times that I didn't realize how difficult it was for others who hadn't playtested it a billion times.
Congrats on your submission.
Social media planets 😎
Couple of quick and easy tips for next time, if you don't mind me saying so: Lock rotation on the surfer so he doesn't fall over. Also look out for height differences between the planets; I'm pretty sure I came across an impossible jump at one point :(
Congrats on your game jam submission.
Nice game! I had problems playing it on Chrome in macOS Big Sur, you should check this fix for the UnityLoader for a post jam version: https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/issues/unity-webgl-builds-do-not-run-on-macos-b...
However it works fine on Safari :)
good job, I had fun playing :D would be curious to see more iterations!
Nice game and quite fun! I love riding the planets!
Easy control and cool gameplay idea with surfing!
Great music!
