Amazingly well implemented kleptop-mechanic! The music is very fun too. The sound effects are to the point. Especially great is the acoustic slow-down effect on game-over. I wish there was a checkpoint just before some of the lasers, because ’twas quite hard for me to pass them ;_; I loved the game! Great fun!

P.S.: The trigger button on my Xbox controller was like holding the Shfit key down. Not sure if that was intended. But it soft locked the heart inside the glob.

I had fun with this. It was really satisfying to pull items towards you and created interesting interactions where you get stuck, but need to funnel through. My timing must have got worse over time because I kept doing well for a while avoiding all the lazers then I seemed to always get directly hit by them.

This was so much fun! Great choice of music! I loved the ending where there was like a hundred things to pick up and i was like "hell yeah". Surprisingly hard, but rewarding!

Wow! Awesome submission! You did a great job implementing the Katamari mechanic. I'm bad at precision jumping, so I really appreciated being able to jump multiple times in the air 😅

Fun game!  I think my favorite part was the music slowdown effect on death.  Nice job getting controller support in there too.

I really liked this game. It was creative, simple and fun! Great music and sound effects. The Katamari mechanic was really good. You really nailed it! I would love to know what code and CollisionObject2D objects you used to make it happen because it's a lot closer to what I had wanted than what I ended up with.

I got stuck on the donuts and triple horizontal lasers level.

Really great entry.

Great game! Came across a glitch were on death the heart duplicated. When one of them died both did sadly. For some reason the scene ended up duplicating itself as well. 

Had fun running around collecting as much as I could and trying to bring as much as I could towards the end of the level. The laser definitely posed a challenge near the end. Thanks for the great game!

Very unique and interesting idea!

I like how the character spins around. The mechanic of picking up and detaching objects works quite well, and synergizes with the spinning mechanic to pick up objects at different angles and "clothe" yourself in them to block the lasers.

I think this game is at its best when you are moving and picking up objects quickly, especially with the upbeat music vibe. It kind of reminds me of the Sonic games.

I was having a lot of fun until I ran into this level, where you go down a ramp picking up speed and objects in a circle. Then you are forced to recombine through a narrow pathway, and recombine again to block the lasers through a narrow maze:

I could probably get through it with some perseverance; but I felt like this level forced me to slow down too much and took away from the fun. Overall I really like the concept and this game definitely deserves a high rating. I would definitely play a longer and more polished version of this game. Nice job!

Yo! It's 2D Katamari!
