The gameplay and graphics are really solid. Only issues are the main menu overlap and the UI in the game is a little to big, in my opinion . But still hat a lot of fun playing the game

But I can't play level 4 and 5 because the settings menu blocks the buttons
A couple people went down the route of a gravitational puzzle game, and this one's by far the best. Feels nice, good visuals, really nice I can see the trajectory of the ship too. Only thing I'd wish for is a button to send the ship but other than that a really really well done game. And your first jam too!
Such an original and well designed puzzle game, I love how fun it is to play with black and white holes, giving the player the chance to pass each level using different strategies. Also, the rockets movement feels so smooth and it is very enjoyable to watch.
The graphics an audio are cool and fit well within the game, the only advice I would give is to polish a little bit more the UI.
Congratulations again on your submission, it is an amazing game and Im sure you will do great in this jam!
Fantastic game. I think the audio of the black and white holes was a bit ear piercing, but otherwise this was really well made!
Some of the sounds are really headache inducing.. other than that it is a really nice concept!
I normally like to write detailed comments, but for you I have only two words: more levels!!
This is so addicting. I could find myself playing this for hours. I hope to see you continue work on this after the jam, but great job on it in its current state. Thanks for sharing. I called you out on the discord so hopefully you get a few more rates in the next hour or so.
Here’s my game if you’d like to check it out. /jam/brackeys-3/rate/572795
Very cool idea! There is some work to be done on the UI and the timer / scoreboard, but one of the most unique ideas on here! Awesome!
Very unique game, i liked it! The sounds that you used reminds of a game called Signal Simulator. Good Job! And the game is pretty hard.
I made a similar game last year :) Like it! I will say the game is quite difficult. One feedback is when I move a hole with my mouse, it won't affect the path of the ship, I will prefer actually that it continuously interacts with the physics. Overall you did well!
Great gameplay! Very innovative. The graphics are ok. The sound effects were rather unpleasant to my ears, but the music was decent. You might want to see how the anchors in Unity's UI work, I was unable to enter levels 4 and 5 because transparent image was blocking the buttons. The first three levels were good though.
Very enjoyable game! The art style and the music go very well together and I love that you have to manipulate the ship with black and white holes instead of controlling the ship yourself, very clever idea. Overall, a very well done game!
The art style and idea are really good. I like that it let you to solve the levels however you wanted. Like using both holes or just one, or all of theme. I found a bug when you place a hole over an asteroid, it got stuck and couldn't used it. Also i couldn't play the level 4. Nice game.
Great job on your game. If this was your first game jam hope you enjoyed the journey of development. I really like your art style and music. Cool mechanic enjoyed pushing and pulling the player. Though your UI is kinda messed up in the start screen. Good job.
