Quite fun and easy to play, and I love the art too!

Developer

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it

omg, this is amazing, well polished core game loop. love it

Developer

Thank you! I definitely focused on polish (maybe a little too much heh)!

Submitted(+1)

Rules are really simple but you can get some really advanced strategies in. Like doing specific recon runs, resupply runs, or even just walking near your base to clear the aliens out. Really cool!

Cool idea! It would be nice to have some hint as to where the parts are, but still  interesting and fun  gameplau.

Developer

Thanks for playing! You're so right & I had the idea of a compass/radar system but honestly just completely forgot to add it! Whoops! 

Submitted

Pretty cool and quite fun, love the art style and the cool music! Great work!

Man, that was a lot of fun to play! Good one! I'm still going to try and collect all parts! 
Edit: Finally finished it after dying a lot, haha. Very satisfying.

Very cool, a little unforgiving, but nice concept and good execution!

Thank you for playing ^^

Nooo, that game froze when I was about to get the 4th ship part. I liked the idea of loops, the only thing I was afraid to go too far. So some turns I just walked around for fruit :D

Developer

Thanks for playing! Sometimes you just gotta feed the little guy!

I loved the art style! Fun concept turned into a good execution. 

Developer

Thank you so much appreciate the kind words!

Submitted(+1)

Really cool concept and nice art style too! Had fun playing, wish there was an easy mode that increased the max hunger or something so I could see more of the game

Developer

Thank you for playing! Don't worry there was only the one level so you pretty much saw the whole thing! hahaha

Submitted(+1)

Pretty cool concept, satisfying to solve and plan a good loop that covers all necessities. Good work!

Developer

Thank you for playing!

Submitted(+1)

very nice game. i kept dying to monsters in the shadows  or hunger though T^T ...... at least i was able to admire the art!! excellent work c:

Developer

Thank you! Sorry for the frustration! >< I appreciate the feedback, will def try to get a playtest in before submitting in the future haha

Submitted(+1)

Nice idea, I enjoyed it a lot!

After plenty of attempts, I couldn't finish though. Was usually left with 1 or 2 parts to collect.

I really like it though, good job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing! It seems you need to be very lucky to win at this game, which is not fair. I will adjust difficulty for future players.

A very clever idea, with great visuals. I think exploring the outer reaches of the map was a little hit or miss because of the big risk of being attacked by aliens. Maybe a weapon pickup or something could have helped. But really cool concept and solid execution overall. Thanks for submitting to the stream! VOD here.

Developer

Thanks so much for playing and for your thorough feedback! Seeing you play live was very enlightening

Submitted(+1)

Cool concept, though actually exploring feels a bit discouraged with the hunger bar, makes each turn a bit same-y, very cool though!

Developer

Thanks for playing and for the thoughtful feedback!

Submitted(+1)

incredibly cool idea and very fun game

Developer

Thank you :D So glad you had fun!

Submitted(+1)

I love the idea, but I die very soon

Developer

Thanks for playing! You're not the only one, I definitely have to tweak the difficulty on this one!

Submitted(+1)

Super addicting game! Love the idea and the artstyle too!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Glad you had fun :)

Developer

Thank you!
