This was so good! Super unique mechanics and feels good to play. Also wishing for more levels! The only thing was it took me a while to figure out how to gain speed and fling myself, but once I figured that out it felt great! I also love how getting hit by the moving obstacles resets your progress from your current point on the orbit. I think that's a very smart design decision. Really great stuff, hope to see more!
i loved it! levels and mechanics were so good, wish there were more levels <3
I'm glad you enjoyed it ! I wish we had more time to add more levels too haha
Really interesting puzzle idea. A proper brain teaser, just the way we like them! Great work!
Thank you so much ! I'm glad you enjoyed our game
I got to the level with the two rhombus where I am supposed to launch myself, how do I do that?
Hey ! You have to move quickly enough on your orbits and delete them with E to launch yourself. I recommend you to use 2 orbits for the first one to the left and 1 orbit for the second one, it works well for me !
I enjoyed this game; it made me think outside of the box!
I'm glad you enjoyed it !
So good! Gave me the same excitement as when I first did the Portal slingshot jump. And adorable graphics and sound to boot
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback !
Wonderful little game. A little buggy, but it was a lot of fun to launch myself and stuff! The moving obstacles were a LITTLE bit too hard maybe? Nah they're fine.
Thank you so much ! At first, I was planning to set the speed of the moving obstacles 2 times faster haha. Hopefully one member of the team told me to nerf it. I'm working on fixing the main bugs, thank you for your feedback !
Really loved the music and SFX—looping around felt super satisfying! The minimalist visuals give it a clean, charming look. I did run into the star getting stuck on walls a few times, so polishing those collisions would help a lot. Overall, a really fun and unique loop mechanic that kept me hooked!
Thank you for your feedback ! The collisions are the main problem in the game, I'll try to see how to fix it for a post jam update. I'm glad you enjoyed the game anyway !
super fun to control!! i love the music and also the main character what a lovely fellow
Thank you so much !!
I really liked this game! Music and sfx are so good. Feels really good "looping" all over the place. I like the visual simplicity too. Very fun. Nice work!
Thank you for your nice comment <3
Thank you !!! I'm glad you liked our game !
Fun and interesting mechanic, fit the loop theme really well.
The wall collisions felt a little glitchy as the star would get stuck.
I sadly didn't manage to complete the wall level, I'm guessing I was supposed to launch myself to the edge and loop around but it felt like I didn't have enough room or skill to do it.
Really good job! I see a lot of potential and was fun!Thank you !!! Yes the wall collision is really frustrating, we didn't manage to fix it before the end. For the last level, I advise you to create 2 orbits before launching yourself to get enough speed. Thank you again for trying it !
the gameplay so cool it my first to see that mechanic so unique in the GMTK jam.
If possible, can you please vote my game and leave a comment too?
Its a cool game. very creative :) that is one of the most original mechanic I've seen in this jam!!
OMG thank you !!!
Really fun idea. Was hard to move around the orbit with Q so maybe a toggle instead of holding it down would help. Great puzzles that feel like they explore the central mechanic well.
Oh yeah ! The toggle is a really good idea, thank you ! Maybe for a post jam update haha. I'm glad you enjoyed the game !
Took a while to get used to the controls, but once I did it turned out to be a fun little puzzle game. Congrats!
Thank you ! I'm glad you didn't give up because of the controls !
loved it! got stuck on the "what if you tried to leave...?" level. a tiny bit off the top of the left side kept screwing with my orbit loop.
Yes, the level design of this level wasn't easy and we did it in a rush. It's the reason why we put it in last place. Thank you for your feedback !
Super cool mechanic. The control are a bit hard I will say so when you require players to jump its way harder. Also I was confused when I couldn't delete an orbit while I held q. Still controls aside I adore the concept, Its really rewarding.
Thank you ! Actually, you can delete the orbit with E while holding Q, but maybe you had a bug we didn't notice. We weren't very satisfied with this mechanic anyway so we didn't make it mandatory. I'm glad you liked the game anyway !
Pretty unique concept. Loved it when the level looped from left to right.
Thank you !! With more time we would have add more levels with that mechanic !
That was very unique and well done! Caught myself playing longer than I meant to haha
I'm so glad you enjoyed it that much !!
Such an interesting mechanic. Never seen anything like it!
Thank you !
