This one took me a really long time to figure out what I was supposed to do, but felt about right once I figured it out. The asteroid formation seemed to change between different patterns each playthrough, and they ranged from manageable to darn right chaotic. Still, like how it all worked out.

Ah brings me back to the days of Star Fox 64. Love the vibes, but I didn't really get how to progress. I think if you make an update, either provide a progress tracker or a point system maybe. Nice job!

Water Cycle CatastropheOrbits are a very clever interpretation of the theme, also, voice acting in a jam game, impressive!
Sadly i couldn't figure out how to progress past the ufo fight, i just kept fighting the same ufo over and over again

Cloud PostingI'm normally not a fan of these types of games but there was so much effort put behind it that I can appreciate that! Great job!

Do Dogs Dream Of Herdin' Sheep?Hilarious intro! It was a cool spin on the normal arcade game , but due to the perspective it was tricky to see if I was going to hit an object or just miss it.

Vanquish the DayHa, that was fun! Also, loved the voice acting.
P.S. We have (theoretically) similar concepts but completely different mechanics in our games. It's always interesting to see that :)
