I like the execution of this game, though, I wish there was a little more punishment for the build phase as I found myself self-destructing to place a few parts as the 10 seconds is a very short amount of time! Good work!
Yeah, that's totally fair and we realized that as well. The idea was that you had a limited number of launches so that you would want to make the most of every launch regardless of whether you finished building your ship. The problem is that we gave 30 launches, which is wayyy more than you need lol.
Thanks for playing though, hope you enjoyed!

Cool idea. Love the funky title screen music.
Incredible game! I love how unpredictable the physics are, really makes the whole game feel like a mad scramble and I love it. Didn't take me too long to beat the game but every second was a ton of fun, one of my favourites this jam.
Fun. If you liked those mobile games with ships and you shoot at enemies you'll probably enjoy this even more since it's Customizable
I enjoyed the customization! Took me a while to find the laser but then I was blasting! Great artwork it was very cohesive. I like the story as well it made the gameplay make more sense. Very creative entry well done!!
Thanks so much!! I'll be sure to check out your game as well!
The game so overall enjoyable! The quick building sessions, and the calm space section as you try not to swerve or rotate out of control.
I love the multiple potential aspects of the game and the sily contraptions you can make as you go through this. It reminds me so much about bad piggies and still has that whimsical charm. I also liked the general art style the main character is so cute, and the music feels so appropriate with the sound effects.
Edit: and just the whimsy you have to figure out as the contraption becomes so more sily from the limited resources you got, and the fuel. Its a really well designed.
It's well done! I've had a blast, and I'm glad that you guys submitted in this game jam!
omg I'm so glad you liked it! Really appreciate the feedback. We've been thinking alot about how to expand the game and what mechanics to add/remove, so I'd love to hear any thoughts people have as well.
Also, thx for sending your ship design, I love it!! Its huge lol
So building block for babies in space? I'm buying it.
You can smell the love poured in this idea from argentina. This will go into my "I'm taking a break to play a few runs" list.
Cool game, had a blast flying around in space! Only missing an end game goal that would keep me hooked to explore for longer ^^
WOW sick ship!! I love it!
There actually is an end goal which is briefly mentioned at the start of the game. You need to escape the asteroid belt that surrounds the planet! if you make it through, you'll get the win screen.
I'll be sure to check ur game out btw :3
No notes, chefs kiss, I built a lot of phallic ships, my b
Don't worry, so did we :3
The art is wonderful, and the gameplay is fantastic! Great entry! One of my favorites so far
I was a bit worried when I saw this due to the similarity to our systems but our gameplay loops are very different.. phew. Very cool concept, I like the idea of slowly upgrading your maneuverability and fuel through exploring space. It made for a very satisfying progression system. Also love the build system at the beginning great job!
Very clever and polished game!
Great job! The game is well-crafted, and the mechanics feel fresh!
Very cute! I liked it a lot, very charming. It reminds me of Bad Piggies a bit haha. Lovely art style, fun gameplay, quirky narrative. A bit Tumblr-y...? I don't know what I mean by that, but it's a compliment. Anyways. Solid game all around, thanks for making it
Its very possible our tumblry-ness rubbed off on it a bit LOL
Bad piggies was a huge inspiration for the game! especially for the art. Im glad you liked it, thanks so much for playing. I'll be sure to check out your game when I can today :D
Love this!
Best game of the jam for me, no question! Very fun, 5 stars
WHAT that's an honor!!!! Thank you!!
Also ur game looks awesome lol I'm def gonna try it out after work
I spent like 50 minutes on this game lol... I just love the janky controls and using the laser beams to kill the ufo guys
How did you come up with such a good idea in such a small amount of time? It's mind-blowing
Thand you so much, that means a lot!! I really like space and also 2012 mobile game bad piggies so I think the stars just happened to align with this one given the theme lol. It did take two all-nighters tho ;-;
Also, great to see another cat game out there o7 I will be checking it out today
I’d appreciate that, thank you!
*I Start assembling a rocket, using tack welding, and hastily launch*
*I realises that I accidentally put the thruster to the side, instead of below*
*Spins around in circles, hitting everything that is possible to hit, and somehow collect an extra thruster & fuel tank*
*Blows up*
*Ignores the dizzyness, builds a second ship, a bit more stable this time, and launches*
*Fiddles with controls, and still spins around anyway*
*Dies multiple times*
*Eventually recovers the weapon, before dying again by crashing into an alien*
*Launches with the weapon*
*Has terrible aim, dies a few more times*
*Finally manages to break the shell, almost out of fuel*
*Wins the game, now stranded in space*
10/10, would ram the UFO's again.
LOVED IT :D
A really great game! The implementation of the theme is genius and the setting for the game is really creative! The ship building part is a really hectic process which has you scrambling around to try fit the parts you have in the best places you can think of while on a short timer, leading to chaotic movement in the flying part of the game. I managed to beat it after around 10 tries. Splendid submission!
