  • I like it :D Those pink planets aren't really necessary to progress since with the orbit of the earth you can fling yourself over obstacles just fine.

How did you fit the theme?
you use your friend earth to make it to the sun

I really enjoyed this game! it had a really cool concept for traversing the levels, the music was nice. Don't really have any complaints ✨

Great submission! 👌

Beatiful game. Maybe the best theme implementation I've seen on this jam. I got some bug in star form after death my character started to teleport but got this bug only once.

It took a while to first get what the game wants from you, but after that i was in a flow state, until spikes got introduced, which broke my state, then i locked in again and beat it. Amazing game, 10/10

Kindly check out my game too if you have time

Submitted

Cool mechanics! I recently developed a Pac-Man in space and I know it’s not easy at all to deal with orbital mechanics. Very cool take on the theme. Nice music as well and simple but effective art. I reached the sun but I couldn’t take a screenshot to show you as it faded fast haha. Rock solid entry!

Developer

Thanks man! and yeah that orbit definitly took a min to get right lol

Not gonna lie, a very original idea and the gameplay was fantastic. Though due to a skill issue on my side I got a little frustrated trying to jump through the spiky hole. Just like in the good old days with Getting Over It...

lol once i realized that the game was kinda a rage game it was to late

Submitted

Excellent gameplay, really...

I was hooked for about 20 minutes.

Developer

Developer

Thank you!

Hey this is a great game!
Some feedback would be the middle section with the spikes was a bit dicy for me. Perhaps the checkpoint could be after I pass through the first spike. Also I thought the bouncy thing was a new planet. I didn't get to the end but if you don't have it already have an area where there a few planets / moons and you are using their gravity to reach the next platform . 
Additionally, coloring the tiles differnet colors as you get closer to the sun would look cool. Like a venus section, mars, earth, etc... 

I loved the gameplay.  

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I did want to add more sections but ran out of time sadly and ill make sure to go and change up that level

Submitted

no worries.
Yea even something as simple as a hue shift on the tileset I think would add a lot to the zone.
This game was the first one that I played that I thought "Wow this is creative" . 
Keep up the great work!
and if you haven't already give my game a rating / play!

Goodluck!
