The spinning planet mechanic was a cool twist and made dodging asteroids more intense. Controls felt smooth and responsive. A solid jam entry with a good challenge

Ahaha, I thought you have to protect the asteroid by smashing yourself on the meteors like in many other games. Took me a few deaths to start dodging them instead

Got used to defence games in this jam, this is more bullet hell, good job on the style. I do like the glowing on death, feels very arcade!

I suck at it as my reaction times are slow but it's fun to try and get as far as I can. Did have to reload a few times for the game to load. Overall, very nice game!

I'm getting just a blank screen also. I'm using Microsoft Edge to play, maybe that's the issue? I'll try later in Chrome.

From what I can understand, you might just need to reload the page until it works. We don't know why this is happening, sorry! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is stunning guys, I struggled to get it loading at first too, maybe an issue with some browsers as others suggested it happened to them too, but once I got it loaded it is visually gorgeous, well chosen sound, bang on theme - simple by design but brilliantly executed. Easy to play, hard to master. The pattern for the asteroids must have been really hard to come up with, it's a really tidy entry - I could learn a lot from you guys, this is how you game jam!

Cool game, reminds me of flash games on coolmathgames! Pretty hard too, didn't even get past the first level lol.

I'm guessing the game is not operational right now or something? I just had a black screen. Not even a loading screen :(.

CrazyCreeper594Developer1 year ago

Well that's new

CrazyCreeper594Developer1 year ago(+2)

I just tried it and it worked, so I'm not sure what's wrong on your end.

Guilded Hut StudioSubmitted1 year ago(+1)

It works now. I don't know what was going on earlier. That's odd. Good work and now I see why the warning of motion sickness. I can see this being bigger, starting off a bit slower to give the player more time to dodge the bigger strikes early and lure them into a false sense of security as the speed ramps up. Good work!

Unfortunately the spinning made me dizzy wasn't able to get too far into the game :(. But the I liked the concept. If you add in a non spinning version I'll definitely try it out further
