  • It is a fun fast phase game where rushing can have consequences! the Idea that you are trapped in the rocket and forced to work for people is quite interesting. The art is really cool gives futuristic vibes and the music fits the theme! There are some parts that could be changed or looked into. For example, it is really inconvenient that every time after you die you need to go through the whole dialog again. Although the condoles being slightly unstable can be seen as an intended mechanic, there were several times when I just got stuck and couldn't move at all. Would like to see some menu to control the sound or return to the main page. It would also be fun to add a leaderboard on how fast a level was completed. ​I am looking forward to what is coming next.

Summarise your game!
You play as VERA, a sentient rocket created by a scientist who decides to use you against her enemies.
Navigate to your target using your mouse, in this post-apo soviet-punk(?) world.

Please explain how your game fits the theme:
You litterally play as a weapon. You are a sentient being stuck inside a rocket against your will. Pretty simple, but we wanted to dig this simple idea into an interesting aesthetic with cool characters.

Super cool art, from the characters and the UI. Made the game feel very stylized and consistent. I had fun trying to navigate the rocket. The game was enjoyable, awesome entry!!

Wow, I like this a lot. Especially the art style, for some reason this art style really makes the game feels unique and it blends into the game perfectly. And the music too! The gameplay is also very nice, though I think the timer is a bit on the harsh side, but at least the game is only 4 levels long so I can still make do with a lot of trial and error. I think if you can get more visual effects on the rocket and the levels, it will be a very great entry in this jam! I forgot to mention the characters too they are all very charming and makes me giggle a bit reading the story.

Anyway, like this game so much, you should be very proud of yourselves. Well dine!
