This is really cool!! Music is really relaxing, levels are pretty challenging and interesting, the main mechanic is really cool. Maybe you could've done it as an expirable resource instead of timed, but timed it's pretty cool too. It really feels out of control to be in space moving. Very nice!!
Thanks for bringing to the stream:
I just rated your great game! Thank you very much for watching the stream yesterday!
I would appreciate it if you could check out my game too!
I loved the ambience of this game. And the SFX work so well!
You can check my gameplay here: (I did play a few games so just check in the video)
Thanks for sending the game on stream! Got to cheese through a few levels :P
lol just one :)
Don't kill my vibe dude
Superslim Bottom Achievement!
Man, that was fun. I just love the sound design in this
thanks! don't forget to rate if you liked it :)
don't worry about that ^^
Impressed by the idea and execution. Good Job!
Hey, thanks for stopping by the stream last night, I rated just now and the VOD is posted here if you're interested: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/681381620
The "player is out of control" idea is handled well, as you are timed as to when you no longer have control. However, I would say that maybe the black hole (or end objective) could have a larger collision detection/hit circle because I found myself often getting very close to the circumference but missing it by an inch. Besides from that it was a lot of fun! :)
thanks for playing :)
i didn't want to make it too easy, but maybe the hitbox can be clearer
This was a lot of fun! It nicely walked the line of needing to be precise enough so that when you got it, you felt awesome, but when you missed you didn't feel frustrated.
ty! i'm glad you liked it
Finished all levels! The game was fun and fluent. The atmosphere was great. I liked it!
thank you for your kind review, i'm glad you had fun with it
very addicting game good job check my game https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2020/rate/696388
I really like the idea of this one, but I think the mechanics need some more refinement. Personally I would have preferred the thruster input to be reversed so the arrow keys move you in the direction you press. And I think the goal post could have been a bit bigger. But the polish is pretty well done, the sprites are good, the particles are great, and the sound effects are really charming (loved hearing the little yeah haha). All in all, good work, the game certainly has potential!
Thanks for the feedback!
I started with the controls not-inverted, but felt like it gave opportunity to more funny moments like "aww man i forgot!" which i actually saw on streams :)
Nice physics game, I had fun beating it! The gameplay takes a minute to grasp but it quickly became pleasant and I kept trying again to beat the levels. Only the presentation is a bit lacking, and the win/lose sound effects are cute :D
Good job on this entry!
Classic start to great game. I can see this spawning into various ideas. I think my favorite right now is adding enemies and making it into a choose your rail shooter game. Where you start off on a direction and you must protect your ship as it drifts towards the blackhole. Either way really lovely mechanic.
Interesting idea! Definitely simulates how difficult it is to control in orbit spacecraft from Earth.
Good idea! The controls are nice and the gravity mechanic is very cool! I would just add an entering the black hole animation.Well done!
This is really fun. There's definitely scope to expand this idea if you wanted to!
