It is way easier to have the ships together all the time and disconnect -> reconnect shortly when you have to pickup something, mabe a cooldown or something to disincentivize that behaviour would be nice. But of course it was way more fun to play it in the intended way! :D

Cool game!

Submitted

Fun game, definitely a high skill ceiling - you could have some wicked hard levels later on, with splitting up ships.

Submitted

Idea is nice! Controls are little slippy though :O

Submitted

Interesting concept! 

Submitted

Having to split attention melts my brain!! Having the space bar pra rejoin ships was a nice fix to that

Submitted

Cool game, I like the movement control and the concept has a lot of potential!  Would love a two player variant as well.  

Submitted

The movement felt fluid, but was a bit hard to handle both ships at the same time.

Submitted

Unique concept. Well done

Submitted

The connection mechanic is neat. (little confusing at first). SFX is fun!

Submitted

a bit confusing, but nice concept and cool game.

Dying sound is hilarious :-D
I liked the link between two ships idea, but was kind of hard to handle when not linked so you end-up always linked and just unlink very quickly when getting the stars.
Linking/docking ships it's kind of a nice think to play with I admit :-)

Interesting concept! Another idea could also be to only let the link collect the points, this way you have to split up. Cheers

Submitted

nice concept, lots of good ways to expand on it if you want to. I found the audio a bit unsettling at times but also kinda funny. Nice job on the game!

Submitted

Love the concept! Also very well named ;)

Submitted

I found the controls a bit unwieldy but its a very unique concept and pretty well executed, although it took me a while to run into anything. Nice job!

Developer

Thanks, yeah the spawn area is empty, because I didnt want any enemies to spawn directly beside the player at the beginning.

Submitted

A bit clunky to control at first, but I figured it out in the end! Very fun although a bit empty 

Developer

Thanks! If you want, you can adjust the spawn probability for a few objects in the settings. I ran out of time, so I wasn't able to optimize the world generation.

Oh dope! Thats pretty sick!
