This is a pretty good game, I loved it!

Developer

Thank you for giving it a play!

I like the music.
The melee attack doesn't seem to work very well.
Anyway keep it on!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Appreciate you letting me know about the melee. Somebody mentioned it not hitting if you're too close and I guess I missed it during testing. :D

Great sound design and concept. It kinda gave me 90s dos game vibes

Developer

Thank you for playing! Sounds have always been my bane in GameJams so I've been trying to work on it.

Good game but it's a bit odd with the black background, sometimes I don't feel like I'm moving around.

Developer

That's probably the dark purple planet. There are 6 different planets but the purple one is pretty dark. Thanks for playing!

The energy mechanic makes this game much more difficult that one is used to. Nice change!

Developer

Thank you! As much as I love just holding the trigger down I did want to add some challenges like energy and stamina management since we only had a limited time to make it. haha

Melee attack is kinda broken, works only at a certain distance but not closer, second stage of the level (after you found the pod) isn't very fun as it's east to outrun enemies so staying alive for 100 seconds isn't much of a challenge, neat game overall, I was surprised that there are multiple levels

Developer(+1)

Thanks! It actually will go on forever with a random map every time whether you win or lose. I knew they were short jaunts so tried to give some longevity to the game that didn't take up too much time coding in.

Nice work! I've liked the melee attack, pretty cool

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I wanted to have multiple guns too but just ran out of time with everything else going on. :D

Happy to see a familiar username! The game was pretty cool! I thought you really nailed the theme and thought the game had a lot of charm! I did have a problem where I opened the pause menu but when I tried to unpause the menu stayed open. That being said, I still managed to win haha

Great work!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Always good to see familiar names in the jams. haha Gonna give yours a spin now!

Thank you!

Really fun game! I love the atmosphere, it really makes you feel like you're on another planet. My suggestion is to make the enemies a bit faster, as the player can outrun them pretty easily. Also, it would be cool to have a small zone you have to stay in after you launch a flare in order to rescue the survivors, to make it more challenging.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I tried to make it hard enough to be challenging, my problem is I'm disabled so what is challenging for my hands may not be for others. haha

Submitted(+1)

no worry it just the small stuffs, I wanted to offer some feedback to help you improve your game. Other than that, the game is good and the atmosphere is spot on!

I wish every asset had the same polish as the playable character. Congrats on a well-rounded game!

Developer(+1)

Thanks. I wish I had had more time to put into it but it has been a hectic month getting ready for NextFest.

Submitted(+1)

I know the feeling all too well, hahaha. All Hell breaks loose the moment the Jam starts. That's life, ... Better luck next time!

Submitted(+1)

Well done guys !

Thanks! My wife and I tried to put more time into this but it's a hectic month. :D

Glad to see another couple making games haha.
My wife was our artist for my 6 man team.

I like the setting and premise. I wonder if making the rescue timer shorter but having multiple ships per mission would spice up the mission a little. Fun game overall :D

Developer(+1)

My wife is my graphic artist as well. Teaching her level design and building as that's her favorite part to do for my game I'm hoping is out next year. I originally had the timer shorter but the game didn't seem as challenging so I upped the spawn rate after setting the flare and extended the timer. I really don't play these types of games because of my disabilities so I thought I had made it challenging enough but alas only to my hands. haha

Simple but well polished, nice job!

Developer

Thanks! I wish I would have had more time to be able to put towards it but this past month has been super hectic getting ready for NextFest. :D
