Game's Take on the Theme
you should protect the clock in the time galaxy and everytime you get higher score clockwise spins faster and when that happens enemys come faster also enemys are spinning around player to make it harder to catch them and alot of bosses spins

Did your team make the majority of the art and music during the jam?

I really dig the simple monochrome graphics, and you have great feedback when clicking an enemy!

That said, I think the lose condition is a little unclear. I see you lose when the circle closes around you, but I while it was still pretty big.

Awesome job!

I like the monochrome graphics, they feel great, the arcade action is really good, the bullet patterns and all is so well made. I like a lot. I rate graphics, controls, fun and music the most but all is great really, also, if you have some time, please, rate my game, thanks!!!

It's a simple and very dynamic game! Its minimalist style makes it a perfect candidate for a good little mobile game, and the mechanics work well with a touch screen. I also really liked the camera work, which makes everything feel much more alive. The music fits well, at first I found it very fast, but as the game progresses, it fits better and better. I don't have anything special to say because everything the game offers is well done :)

That was a lot more fun than I thought with a simple idea like that!

I got to 103 score before I died. I probably would have got further but I had a lag spike in the middle which was probably my fault due to wallpaper engine changing in the background. The music and small shaking animations of the boss and shapes really make it feel exciting to play.

Music is great, had some perfomance issues somehow which is unfortunate, seems to be a me issue though !

fun game and great take on the spin theme for the jam! it was hard at times to tell when enemies were coming at you versus the other elements on the screen so maybe having those represented in a different color would help? overall had a great time playing though and wish there was more content to discover! great work!

It’s challenging but entertaining. The simple graphics work well, giving it a minimalist and polished look. The music fits perfectly and makes the experience more enjoyable. It gets pretty tough, I managed to defeat the second boss, but I didn’t get to see the third one since I lost before that. I spent about half an hour trying, haha. Good game!

unique space shooter game when you stay in the middle instead at the bottom of the screen, and the black and white color make the game looks simple

my hour play time in Aimlabs really came in clutch for this game haha. Nice take on the theme and I liked how minimal and uncluttered it is so focusing on the shapes is easier and clear
