We decided to go on a macro scale and set our game in space with blackholes and supernova, We had planned to implement powerups that would allow the ship to build itself bigger as well to give more boost and thrust at the cost of size, but had too many bugs to implement. So, decided to pivot to a smaller more managable game with a big scale setting.

Interesting concept, but unfortunately the game would freeze when I would get to around 0.0058 km. Definitely could be great with the bugs ironed out.
Ilike the visuals and the ship feels very nice to move around! Its a very simple concept but fun to play. I think its missing a restart button though, but overall its well executed, well done on completing the game!
Black holes look great! But I cant restart the game after I get into one of then, I need to restart the page
thank you! Should be able to restart with the ‘R’ key in the keyboard :)
Idea as much as i could understand was not bad, but a lot of bugs so could not play it any further than 30 secs.
Thanks for checking it out! GitHub really screwed us and we spent the last 6-8 hours just trying to get it playable again after some bad code merges. Literally for the working build 10 minutes before the deadline so unfortunately couldn’t spend almost anytime bug hunting or fixing. Hope the small bit was fun though!
Peak Time Management! Good game tho
Thank you! I’m just glad we got it on here at all 😂 after we lost a bunch of work from GitHub we almost gave up entirely. finally got this working again about 10 minutes before deadline so glad it was at least playable a bit!
Do check out my game as well if you have the time
Beautiful art and great idea! Just needing some polish, a bit buggy for me. :)
thank you for checking it out! Unfortunately the last 6-8 hours there were supposed to be for polishing were spent trying to fix version issues from GitHub where we lost about half of our work. So, unfortunately I didn’t have time to fix the bugs and get it back working completely, but I appreciate you taking the time!
Sorry to hear that :/ Jams are so tough with time pressure! Even with the extra two days this year I struggled too haha
Nice music, a bit hectic. It crashed after I went 0.0054km, what's up with the weird distance calculation?
Sorry about the crash! I was trying to fix the spawning script in the last bit of time I had and think I missed a huge bug in that one. The distance calc was done by my partner and unfortunately when he added it through GitHub it broke everything so we didn’t have time to change it to be more reasonable!
Didn't have time to credit all assets used and accidentally lost some of the sources, but music was from Pixabay, background art was found by teammate (they don't know who's it was). Other effects and art were mad by us. This was also our first jam submission ever, so hope you like it!
