This was a great overall game however without looking at the game page after playing the first time I was unsure of exactly what I was trying to do and also the controls. This is something that should definitely be included in the game or as part of an opening sequence maybe?
The game had great sounds and aesthetics really pulling off those space vibes.
When playing I also found it very hard to judge depth and distance of the oncoming objects which made it frustrating yet fun at the same time.
I noticed there was a cross hair of sorts however I couldn't figure out what it was.
Keep up the awesome work!

Thanks, that’s some great advice! Definitely needed a little explanatory opening sequence.
Judging depth was something we struggled with quite a lot too. We had a version for a while adding a glow outline around objects directly in front of you (glowing red if they were too big to collect) but pulled it eventually as it didn’t help as much as we’d hoped. The cross hairs were another attempt to improve the situation too. We need to study how games like Star Fox solve this :-)
It’s been lots of fun taking part in this Game Jam!
