Really cool game that feels very vibe-y. The art is beautiful and the tether + jet pack is a very fun movement mechanic.
One minor gripe I had was having to leave the spaceship just to cross to the other side. It would be cool to fix this by adding a semi-solid platform that you have to "crouch on" (press down) to go through.
Cool particles when using the flame thrower, also really liked your sound design, it's a bit too bad that the 64x64 pixels limits the gameplay a bit making it hard to see where you're going.
I played it on my Steam Deck till the end plus a bit more on a new game, I enjoyed the opening text screens very much and the wind rustling in almost complete darkness as you start sets a great mood but I really had a tough time initially parsing and understanding what the hud elements meant and how to progress forwards. Once I got the gist of the game and its resource management down I enjoyed my stay in your game quite a lot.
All things considered it’s a really beautiful game graphically speaking and the audio as well as music are really atmospheric and match up with the gameplay exquisitely. However the gameplay itself felt a bit unintuitive for me personally and is perhaps limited by the nature of the jam. A short explanation of resources and such on the itch page might help a bit.
Loved that starting cutscene, the gameplay is a bit monotonous and as someone else mentioned it's possible to basically skip enemies due to the lack of reward.
I should say that the attacks are cool to watch and look good and the music also fits well.
I was using Firefox, and I made sure that audio worked on my game in the same browser (which it did), I’ve got many many extensions a bit too many to name
It's an interesting game, but it'd be nice to have slightly better instructions, I couldn't really progress further than being able to shoot/emit the blue stuff.
