Love the visual style, but perhaps the shader is a little harsh on the eyes. Other than that, the controls are tricky to get a hold of but not unintuitive, the visual indicators are really clean, and I appreciate the difficulty. Very fun game!

This is fantastic. I love the art and vibe, and the mechanics work very well. I love the simulation aspect of it, and all of the knowledge of orbital dynamics (from Kerbal space program) are perfectly captured. I love how it takes some thing that is generally very slowly paced, and makes it quick and exciting. Great job!

Submitted

Nice work on the trajectory predictions. It helps so much

Submitted

Very good entry for the jam!

The game is very original and enjoyable, the concept is too original ^^ !

The artwork is nice and the music too!

Congratulations !

Nice game! I love the style you went for here, and the trajectory and movement are very smooth. Using my kerbal space program knowledge I tried my best to align the orbits but I just wasn't able to deliver enough thrust, I'm def coming back to beat this game tho :D

Love the artwork! I died like 100 times. Perfect!

Great game. The mechanics are well-polished, and the levels aren’t easy! Congrats on your entry.

Submitted

Very cool concept! The controls are a bit tough to get used to but it's managable. Also I don't know why but sometimes crashing into the sun is counted as level completed.

Great game! I thought I was playing the interstellar sequence at one point when I missed the trajectory of the ship completely—good UI and accessibility (zoom) feature.

Artwork and audio are really good! You did an incredible job putting this together! I wish I was better at the game

Don't lie. If I still had any meaningful relationship with my son after these guys LAST game, I've lost everything now because of this stupid game. I dont know why they keep doing this, but at this rate I'm going to do unspeakable things. 😘😘🤩

Amazing artwork, very creative idea as well! Also very well made, despite the lag, but im on a chromebook which may be the reason for that :sob:

Too much lag unfortunately

I enjoyed it. It's a pretty hard game, I felt exited every time I beat a level. I did get stuck at level 5 with the bomb, I think a larger target would be good.

Was hard but fun

Pretty cool game, the visuals are awesome and the movement feels great.

Amazing work 🍞

I just managed the third level, but all three I completed I did by basically ignoring the orbits…! It’s tricky, and far from forgiving. I like the more realistic physics approach, but I found I wasn’t able to internalize those physics well enough to functionally play harder levels. I enjoyed what I played, though! Very polished, and the visuals + post-processing are great.

I was able to complete a couple of stages. I will try the rest later for sure! Nice game!

Submitted

too difficult for me :/

Developer

what did you find difficult? how can we improve the game?

Submitted

couldnt beat the tutorial, no matter what i did i got sucked into the sun

Developer(+1)

sad to hear that, maybe try the propulsion in a diferent direction? im not sure what you could be doing wrong

i tried it but my kid abandoned me a long time ago. but it worked 🤩😁 big fan of your work.
