A game I enjoyed testing. The music is well chosen and the increasing difficulty well calibrated.

A little upgrade system and the possibility of destroying asteroids, statellite etc. would have been perfect.

I admit that it would have been complicated in one week!

Well done for the work! :)

Pretty good game. I think though that a dash would be really cool like you drilling through the rocks, also I felt like the difficulty jump to the little black bomb things was pretty hard.

Developer (1 edit)

You're not the first to say that about the dash, and it would likely be a great addition to the game. The bomb is my favorite, but I recognize that it significantly increases the difficulty.

Thanks for the rating!

I enjoyed and played through to the end. I think you balanced it well, although I was able to finish it on my first playthrough, I might just be a god gamer though, who knows? 

The graphics were great, but I wish there was a little more SFX and maybe different or longer looping music. 

I think there is a fun base here, and would love to see a mechanic that allows you to drill into rocks, or something else then simply dodging and evading.

Good feedback, thanks! I admit that i never planned  to add player abilities but now i think about it could be really fun in the gameplay, since the player is a drill. The sound effects was a thing that i wish i could implement but the time was running out and we don't had time unfortunelly.

Thank you for playing!

Oh, I know all about the time crunch! Good work! Finishing is the goal at the end of the day.

Great game! I like that each new level introduces a new obstacle. I would have liked to have a dash option though (like dashing downwards since it's a driller). Overall, great job!

Developer

That would be fun probably. Thank you for playing!

Nice work, I had fun :) Really well done music too, so many games just used other music and it always makes me happy when I find a game with custom music.

I'm curious, what game engine did you use (if any)? It doesn't look like a normal Unity build.

Developer

Thank you for the rating and nice words! The game was actually made in the Gamemaker engine.

fun gameplay :D i really like the art/atmosphere as well. but i feel like there should be some audio when you get hit or something explodes, since now eveything's pretty lacking audiowise. But i still had my fun with this. Well done!

Developer(+1)

Good point! I will remember that. Thanks for playing!

The game is a blast! The music is energizing and fits the atmosphere perfectly. The 2D graphics are nice, and the fast-paced gameplay in space adds to the fun. Smooth controls make it a great experience.

Thank you for the words!

Developer

Thanks!

What a time!

Things I enjoyed ✔️

  1. Gameplay was very well done! So much fun!
  2. Visuals were amazing! Literally perfect!
  3. I loved the background music!

Things I would like to possibly see with your title. 🤷‍♂️

  1. Some hit sound effects would be awesome! Or like a sound of the meteors pacing by from the sky! That would be awesome!

Overall 📓

Great work on this game! Very well done! Your team should be very proud of this title because it was very well made!

Developer

The game is a bit laggy (i'm using wine on a linux to play it that may be the source of the issue) and it's a bit long but otherwise pretty cool !
+ I love the music

Developer(+1)

We made this game with only windows in mind so probably this really is the reason, sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks for playing!

So fun the game i make, I have made many attempts until I have completed the game, a game over screen would have been great. Great Job!

Developer

I agree, i would be nice a game over screen but unfortunely i was out of time.
