Moon-only build is OP as hell :D For me the first time, the end screen came up so suddenly, I couldn't decide if I had won or died :)

The game was entertaining, and the Earth sprite was cute. I just upgrader the moon xD.

Very fun game! tried to pick the laser upgrade only, and still destroys 90% of the enemy with the moon.

Very fun game ! The visuals are cute and the music fits the game very well. I had a great time !

fun game! moon was a satisfying mechanic against enemies and it's cool that you were able to implement waves and a boss. i thought the lazer was kinda underpowered since you couldn't aim it (or at least i couldn't figure out how to). cool game :)

Went all in with the moons but that final boss got me good lol

Loved how the music really set the seen when the boss arrived. Could feel doom approaching

I only picked moons, then the boss destroyed me. Fun game I enjoyed it a lot!

Submitted(+2)

I had so many moons! I thought I was unstoppable! ...But the boss totally wiped me out. Anyway, super fun game!

Developer

Thanks for playing our game! Gameplay difficulty was one of the things that is really hard to playtest, there was a point where the moons were incredibly overpowered. But I do agree, with its current state the boss is pretty difficult! I’m still not sure whether it should be like that or if it is better to be beatable by everyone, in the end we just left it as it is :P Thanks again for your time and I’m glad to hear you had fun :D

Fun and addicting, the boss is brutal though.

Hey, I tried your game, congratulations on your participation :)
V-survivors always work!

I don't know if it's intentional, but the many moons were always in the same position.

Developer(+1)

It’s a bug unfortunately :( We wanted to solve it before the jam ended but ah well, we ran out of time and opted to polish the other aspects instead. Working with angles is difficult. :’) Thank you for playing :)

Very fun game, with great graphics and music !

Clever interpretation of V.Survivors-like, very fun to play, good work !

Developer(+1)

Love your froggy game!! Thank you so much for playing our game too!

Submitted(+2)

Game's pretty fun to play although (assuming you're going for something similar to vampire survivors) you could have used a few more upgrades that drop randomly

Developer

I agree that it would have been more fun with more upgrades! We spent too much time fiddling with the balance of the two powers tbh. Thank you so much for playing!

Submitted(+1)

As far as I can tell the laser upgrade is way worse than the moon for everything except the boss fight, where if you get too close you just die instantly. Other than some balancing issues it is a really fun game.

Developer

Thank you for playing our game! I am glad that you had fun playing it! I agree that the laser needs a bit more punch to match up to the moon, considering that in actual fights it had a higher chance of missing. Thank you for the feedback!

Submitted(+2)

It's a funny game ! The only issue I noticed was that the moons would get stuck in one place, so it was a bit frustrating ^^'

Developer(+1)

Thank you! To tell the truth, yeah, that was a bug on our part that we just kept. I had a lot of trouble coding the moon orbiting Earthy and didn't have much time. It kind of does work but our real intention was really to make the moons never overlapped haha. Thank you for playing our game and hope you still had fun!

Submitted(+1)

Cool game! I like space. Everything felt easy until I reached the boss battle. I only upgraded the Moon+ upgrade, which was incredibly overpowered—until I faced the boss. I didn't last long into the fight before dying. It was a real challenge!

Developer

Thank you! Yes, I agree, the moon is stupidly overpowered haha. Originally we were planning on adding much more variations to weapons and upgrades. Maybe in the future we will try to fix the balancing of weapons and add more types and power ups! Again, thank you for playing and enjoying our game!

It's great. The parallax just makes me a bit dizzy.

Developer

Thank you so much for playing! I’m sorry about the parallax, I had a feeling it would do that. I was thinking about whether it was cool enough to add to a space game without causing dizziness but it’s hard to test that. I will definitely update that soon. I hope it was still a bit fun though. Thanks again for taking the time to check it out. :)

It doesn't make me feel dizzy anymore, maybe not playing after crunching my own game helped.  Your game is really fun :)
