This was cool. My computer is super weak so I was getting basically 2FPS, but thankfully this is just a level. I liked the blue art style too, and the ship was a cool idea.

Thank you!

Rocking it in my rocket. Had a great time with this one on stream. Thanks for sharing and I look forward to what you make next.

Nice aesthetic and mood / location.  Nice job on keeping the scope to the task, I have a feeling it may help you on future rounds as you can probably implement a few different game styles from this setting.

Developer

Thank you!

Nice job, I saw your development progress in the discord server and I have to say that this looks cool. There are some very small bugs like sometimes when you walk and jump at the same time, it still looks like the character would be walking in the air. Also when going to the boundaries of the map it seems to be jumping back to the area. And last thing is if I press for example A and W at the same time, the planet will move towards the top left corner but only 1 of the thruster is on. But overall it's a very good game!

Dav, bud, this was brilliant. It's been excellent seeing the updates in the discord and well....it's lived up to the hype, really great atmosphere. The worldbuilding's excellent too!

Developer

Thank you!

Unique idea for sure, and such attention to detail with all the little planets and variety. Nice style and atmospherics too with the music and sound effects.

It's really cool to be moving a whole planet* around, the idea of that is cool. There are probably a lot of ways you could take this project. Something about this makes me think it could become something special. It's like Fez where it's a unique mechanic. But the calming music and simple yet still effective graphics make me think Seiklus. I'm not sure which direction you'll take it, but I'm interested in seeing how this project evolves. Also, the flame effect is really cool.

*edit: Comet.

What a brilliant idea to move the ship and the people in it using different controls.

Developer

Thank you!

This was a great experience and you can see how much love is put into every detail of this game: from the sounds and the colors to the aliens and their dad jokes (Especially the dad jokes). It was great to play this and I definitely would love to see more of it! 10/10

Developer

thank you!

super cool! love how you move both the character and ship!

Developer

Thank you!

Nice idea for the round ship. great sound effects and music to bring it all together. I also liked the colour palette you chose :)

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

From looking at other comments I'd agree that a little direction for the player could be nice.  Besides that, though, the controls feel really great and the art has an amazing charming and mysterious feel to it.  Great job.

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you!  If I make it too the next round Ill try and add more direction to the player

Submitted

Really charming aesthetic! I enjoyed getting to chat with all the aliens. Nice work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you!

Interesting game idea. It needs more help for the player (as an example: I didn’t knew where I had to go)

Developer

Thank you! yea maybe a marker of where NPCs are would've been good. I guess I wanted players to explore but I see that I should've given more guidance 

Submitted(+1)

I would love to try your game but my potato PC lag so much for HTML games... is there any way to add an EXE version ? I would understand if not, but at least I try ahah.

Developer(+1)

Sure! what computer are you on?

Submitted

Tysm, I'm on windows !

Developer(+1)

Ok! Ill try and get a build up soon

Developer(+1)

Its up!

Thank you ! I really enjoyed moving around in this space, the spaceship and gravity controls are so satisfying to play with ! And damn this music suits very well, nice pick. My fav character is Terrence, I'm a sucker for dumb puns ahah.

Finally the artstyle is so good, I just thought maybe a bit too much glow but it's just my taste...

Hope it gets to round 2, well done !

Developer(+1)

yea, It was My first time In a while using post processing and I kind of went overboard lol

Submitted

Nice work! It's always comfortable to explore the map and then talk with different characters.

Developer

thank you!

Submitted

The game has such a calm vibe to it! Awesome!!
