I really enjoyed playing! it was tough, but not TOO tough (especially when I realized I could use a controller. I'm no good at precision controls with arrow keys). As for whether you should have stuck with abducting cows vs trying to help shepherd the creation of Earth... why not both?

I actually really enjoyed the little 'mini-game' aspects wrapping around a neat little science/astronomy educational nugget and it kept me engaged wondering what the next mini-game would be or which 'fun space/earth fact' would be next.

Feels like the right scope for a gamejam game and I've bookmarked it in case you decide to add more to it one day.  

This is good.  It's very challenging but you can always retry.  Keep this one going!!

I win! I made the DNA! Oh man, I did not think I was gonna be able to do that one lol. Overall, fun little concept. I think you did pretty darn good for a solo dev. And for a first Jam! My only real issue is that it felt like the hitbox for the ship was pretty tight on some parts. Which is theoretically correct, but it leaves the player feeling like they don't have any forgiveness when moving around.

Liked the idea, good style but the game seems a bit punishing. If there were lives implemented it would be great. Even if  you make the fragile UFO invincible after the level mission is accomplished would be fine. I died several times because of the falling meteorite on level 3 :D

This is really good! I can picture a lot of kids flocking around playing this game in the science museum or planetarium.

Keep going! I really want to play the final version of this game 😍 (especially if it has the mobile version, in landscape orientation maybe)

Abducting the cows was my favorite part! Great pick on the music, it was very soothing and set the tone well. I do wish that I could fullscreen the game where the graphics would scale up. I tried the Linux desktop version and maximizing the window didn't change the size of the sprites. I don't know how to do it in Godot myself, but a bunch of games submitted figured it out somehow. Might just be a button in the project settings somewhere?

I loved this idea. Fun game! If you develop this further it would be great to see more storytelling (around the aliens creating life on planets). I thought the difficulty was just right. Maybe it would also be nice to have lives so you don't have to start from the beginning of the level every time? Thank you for sharing!

Wow, nice game, I love the minimalist style. Gameplay is so simple but the variety of levels made it a fun experience.

With a little more polishing it can become a really fun but addictive game. :D

I wasn't expecting somethig like this concept, I really like it! super original. Cute graphics and the audio is really good

I died a lot, tho and I had some difficulties seeing some asteroids change their elevetaion

Apart of that, I had a good time playing you entry ^^

It's a very cute game with a cute art style. The concept is very cool, however this may need a wee bit more polishing.

The music was very nice and soothing, but it was kindda disappointed when I realized that it restarts whenever I die, and I died A LOT. 

Maybe the movement of the objects could've used some smoothing too.

Other than that, it's a nice and challenging game.  And it's a good opportunity to teach people about astronomy and how earth came to be, so I really do reccomend that you develop this more.

This was fun! I did find it annoying the number of times I got close to winning, then got struck by something at the last second haha. And there was a minor graphical glitch where the tractor beam would go upwards when orbiting the first planet. Awesome animations on the planets colliding!

A well executed cool idea. If I'd change something then controls could need a bit more "mass" and perhaps tone down the difficulty a bit*?

(*I admit I did not get past the RNA level)

I think there's a ton of potential in this game, and it's super cute! It was just...far too challenging for me to get far with all the moving parts. If you were thinking of developing this further, you might want to amp up the difficulty a little more slowly and get players used to the movement first. 

That was fun! I definitely think this was better than the cow idea, to me. I would totally be interested in playing a game like this that went through history with the alien folks shaping human civilization after life on Earth. But what kind of steel plated bubbles are in the RNA that explode an interstellar vehicle upon contact?
