What a creative take on the theme! Having it be a tactical choice not to complete a loop is a very clever idea, and using the walls as a strategic way to line yourself up felt satisfying. I really enjoyed just gliding between the ships hoping for the best lineup! Loved this one!

Very polished game! It's beautiful and the music is superb! Sometimes you want to turn around an obstacle on one side but you start turning on the other side, sometimes you want to turn around a specific obstacle but you are closer to another one that you haven't necessarily seen.

Nice Idea and good work making a one-button game. Sometimes it was a little tough to figure out which planet you would loop around but other than that great art and concept!

Difficult to master the control but super fun concept! It would be nice to be able to control the speed of the plane!

i had some performance issues with the web build but this game feels incredible once you get into the flow, nailing a really tight loop around an enemy is so satisfying! great artwork too, especially the cover image

Thanks! Try it on Chrome I think it's bugging only on Firefox/Safari

A very enjoyable game! It's very fun to play, especially once you start to get the hang of it ^^

I did find that recovering health often put us in danger, perhaps a little too much. Because very often it sends us straight onto spikes or enemies. Not to mention doing a loop in the middle of a horde of projectiles! But that didn't stop me from getting a good score (in my opinion :D)

Well done for this great game!

Wow it's a new high score for the game!!

I agree, you should have options to get away from danger. I'm thinking of giving a 2nd button that you could use to realign the plane or just give invincibility. Looking into it after the jam!

Nice little plane game. Perfect experience to have on the phone. Good challenge and skill ceiling too. I can see the aspiration idea going so far.

I think you have the framework for something really good here that can be really addicting and even ported to mobile platforms! Music was nice, colors and art weren't too intense and the controls reminded me of flappy bird. Easy to pick up, hard to master. I think you did a really good job in 24 hours.

Orbital Singularity

Yeah. We started working on the game 24h before the deadline, so we had very little time for the gameplay adjustments. The game would have need 1 more day to add difficulty progression and better procedural generation.

One of the best looking games of the jam.

Awesome art style! the plane flying controls were a little tricky with the plane moving so fast, but I do like how satisfying it is when you do a loop-de-loop around the heart pickups.

my personal highscore is:
