Well done, the game works well for such a short jam! Simple mechanic but smart way of using it with the lasers rotating and all.

Larcin LazerYeah, I might have gone the wrong way.. The explosion joke was kinda true because I tried polishing a 3 hour game (and simply saying that looks like nonsense) and the 5 minutes quickly became more than 20. On the other hand, that's a quick way to learn something, such as focusing on clarity and objectives before polishing.. Thanks for playing though !
Hi!
It's a nice game. Very different from your usual space shooters, as it does not have the shooting lol.
At first I had a little problem about what is the objective. I crashed on one of the similar color orb, so I thought I could break them, but turns out they damage me. It would be great if you include the 'how to play' section in either the game's ui or description so other people don't get confused.

Space WarsCool way to use the theme, but I had to read the comments to figure out how to play the game. Some useful UI would have really put this game over the top.
Always have to respect jammers who include music in the development time!

Daydream Laser BeamI turned invisible after dying a few times. So there's no penalty for different laser color other than the audio effect? Oh wait. Yeah there is. Would've been great to show the health. Time on music was well spent. Game starts a bit slow and easy.

Laser DroneThank you for playing ! Yes, you basically starts with 5 (maybe 6..) health, and damages remove 1, but passing through a laser with the right color does not deal damages. It would have been clearer with some UI indeed ! I started with music to be sure to have one even if it meant less features in the end...
