I liked dodging in this a lot. I was confused for a couple seconds and then it was a lot of fun to plan how to get everything through safely. Nice work!

Thnaks! So glad that you liked it!

Cool soundtrack, very fitting for the game. The visuals are also very consistent and easy to understand. I get that the idea is that if you hold click you get a signal that affects multiple ships at once, but it always felt a lot more reliable to just click on top of the ships to make them rotate as needed.

I really liked the beautiful blue-themed art style and the BGM!

The controls are also simple and well designed.

Developer

Thanks so much for playing!

Cool idea! Very easy to figure out what was going on and control. The limited color palette was nice. And cool to realize that a hold click would affect multiple ships at once. Best I did was 154.

Developer

Thanks for playing! And congrats on your score

Like the idea! I would add something to force player to keep as many ships on the screen as they can, otherwise just avoiding the colisions and waiting seems like a viable strategy

Thanks for rating! Someones said that to make more points when ships are closer woile ne a Nice idea and that would force the player tot keep more on the screen to get the super bonus

I like the idea for the controls! I think the game would feel more satisfying if there was more visual feedback on scoring points, something simple like floating numbers above each ship showing how much each of em are adding to the score!

You could also add little bonus challenges, like “the closer two ships are without colliding, the more points they each give”!

I see alot of ways you could build ontop of this game, which means its a very very solid base!! And the music was very charming!!

Good job!!

Nice entry! I really liked the minimalist style! Couldn't quite figure out how to get more ships, but I had a fun time playing. Great job!

Developer

Thanks! Happy to hear that

Amazing  Game! I think adding levels or making there bigger disadvantages to flinging away every spaceship would help. Gets a bit dull after a while. I'm also wondering? Was one of you an artist and was one of you a developer?

Developer

I made the art and code, the other person helped me with backround music
