Very cool concept. Nice art. It get's kind of buggy if you start smashing and don't move at all but it's very minor. I loved the waves.

Developer

Thank you so much! We're definitely gonna iron out some bugs in a patch coming after GMTK so please stay tuned. Our coders we're very proud of those waves!!

Incredible aesthetics and concept! Such an awesome vibe! Runs a little choppy though, and game overs tend to feel a little random. Info for the game-over condition (hp/lifes) would be nice

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! We wanted to capture the eerie vibe while also keeping it simple. In a patch, we're gonna focus on addressing player enjoyment, balancing gameplay, and overall making things visually more clear and direct for players. Once again though thank you so much for the feedback and for checking us out !! :D

Cool concept! i think this could be expanded to be very fun, it just needs a little more feedback and more ways to dodge attacks
Great job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for playing! We had a lot of fun working on this, so a patch based on player feedback is coming as soon as GMTK ends <3

damm that a really nice game you made :D simple but really well executed. nicely done

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for playing!!

really loved the style! think the movement could feel a little smoother for a bullet hell but very fun regardless

Developer(+2)

Thank you! There is definitely a challenge with the limited movement options but i'm glad you liked it!!

an amazingly well polished game. really love the artstyle and sound design. the difficulty could be made a little easier. i found myself dying within a minute every run. but the polish of everything, like the slams creating huge waves of water, were also really a good touch.

Developer(+2)

Thank you!!! we learned a LOT from previous jams when it comes to polish so game feel was most important!

Really awesome game! Concept was beautifully executed. I love that the slam is an attack, defense, and dodge all in one.

Developer(+4)

Thank you so much!! we tried to make it as SIMPLE as possible when it comes to mechanics! Glad you noticed it!

Submitted(+6)

It's fun I like how you can dodge rockets.

Developer(+4)

Thank you!

I was a bit confused on my health system but even then one of the best games I've played so far this jam! 

Developer(+5)

Okay okay we;ve had a few questions about this so here goes:
In order to grow, you need to pick up debris, the number of debris you need to get gets higher for each growth. The debris ALSO act as a shield, so if you get hit, the debris go first. If you are out of debris (because they got blasted or you just grew) you only have 1 hp!

Submitted(+4)

Ah that makes sense thanks for the explanation! Still enjoyed the game :)

Submitted(+6)

Love the simplicity but also  really well detailed which is hard to do. Keep up the good work!

Thank you so much for playing!!

Fantastic game. The art was amazing, and the idea is really unique. Well done.

Thank you for playing!

There are so many different great things about this game. Orbiting and destroying a planet is a pretty novel idea, but your artist made it look phenomenal. The sound design and story gave it a nice creepy atmosphere. Growing and transforming the "moon" is fun. The double use of the slam as a way to gather resources and dodge attacks is really smart. I couldn't always figure out why I died, but all of the above had me coming back to play again. Great jam game.

Developer(+3)

Aaa thank you so much!! Our musicians popped off and we artists did our best to match their vibe. Programmers went through so many iterations to perfect the wave mechanic so we're glad people are vibing with it. Completely understand about attacks though, and we do plan to make a patch once GMTK ends. Glad you enjoyed the game!! <3

Moving around and slamming into the earth while this moon-like entity evolves in the process feels very satisfying! One thing that I would probably change would be how easy it is to die considering how it takes away from feeling like a powerful eldritch monster and makes the experience rather frustrating at times. Other than that it is an all in all very fun game!

Developer(+3)

Patch is coming right after the jam ends!! We are so glad to hear the game Feels good above all, we tried to give it all the juice we had!

Submitted(+5)

super stylish with a very fun concept. i'm extremely impressed with the amount of polish for the length of the jam. i'm complete garbage at bullet hell games normally, let alone with these mechanics but i think it's a really nice take on it!!

Developer(+2)

Thank you!! This game is Very hard so don’t be hard ob yourself! We’re glad you enjoyed the game

Submitted(+5)

dont know the reason. But I just love this game

Developer(+2)

I love you

Submitted(+6)

Lovely visuals, and a fun idea; My only nitpick is probably the fact that one enemy hit is enough to kill you, which IS the point but the limited movement makes it more of a nuisance than usual. Apart from that, stellar entry! Good team effort.

Developer(+1)

That makes sense!! The original idea was that you would Shrink on a hit, but it didn’t feel as fun and more like a chore. We’ll have to figure out a good middle!

Submitted(+5)

Wow, I really love the way this game feels ! Great art and music too :)

Submitted (2 edits) (+5)

Took forever, but I finally finished the game 

Developer(+4)

you’re insane, you are officially the first non dev to have beaten it, congratulations!!!!

Submitted(+5)

Really cool graphics, nice atmosphere and interesting gameplay :)

Developer(+1)

Thank you!!
