How does the game fit the theme?
This game fits with the theme "Nothing Can Go Wrong" by starting with what seems like an ordinary desk job for Captain Eric. However, things quickly take a dramatic turn as he unexpectedly finds himself defending Earth from an alien invasion by Captain Zippy.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
I used tutorials for some of the code. I also used assets from online during the jam.

nice game! i feel like the controls were sort of unintuitive with the turning and aiming. other than that great effort!

Submitted

Fun game ! At the begining, i spend a bit of time on the main screen, and kill my earth ahahahaha "nothing could go wrong" 

Submitted

very nice game! loved the art :)

Submitted

Interesting game! Am i the only one who started to shoot at the earth out of boredom? i genuinely thought i might unlock an ending or something haha. I like the gameplay and the hit effects on the earth, a neat entry!

Submitted

Interesting!

Submitted

I liked the game! Love the whole alien invasion theme. Visuals are nice too, pixel art works well with the game. Well done!

Submitted

Great game!

Submitted

I liked the aesthetics of the game! The earth had very nice visuals. I think if there was more feedback to hitting the enemies like even a simple flash or something itd make it really nice! Controls also slightly made it harder to hit the enemies. But overall really good game!

Submitted

Controls were a little difficult but a nice game entry overall :D

Submitted

Nice concept! Well done :)

Submitted

What a nice game! It was a bit difficult to aim though due to the controls. But great job!

Submitted

I really liked this one: simple, fun and with great visuals and sounds! Great job!

Submitted

Nice game! It is fun, but I think the player controls feel a bit complicated when it comes to shooting. Maybe adding feedback to the enemies when they take a hit would make it more rewarding and satisfying!
Overall, nice submission!

Submitted

Fun game. I like the visuals. But I would like to have a "try again" button after finishing the game. 

Btw, my highscore 2300

Submitted

its a good game it looks great but i am not a big fan of the movement (probably because i suck) bet every thing else wus awsome!

Submitted

Fun stuff! Looks and sounds great, and I enjoy the loop. Nice work :)

Submitted

Love the artstyle, but the gameplay is preety hard due to the controls. Althought, good job!

Submitted

I like your game, the earth sprite look increidble. I enjoy your game but the only problem are the controls. Good job!

Submitted

Cool game! Like others have said, the controls are really the only questionable part. Minus that, there is lots of potential for this. Good job!

Developer

Yeah if I maybe used a mouse the controls would have been smoother. Thanks for the feedback :D

Submitted

pretty cool! Aim with mouse could have felt better imo. That earth looks pretty cool! Is it just a mask and two parallax textures? 

Developer

Thanks! I actually just used an AnimatedSprite2D for the Earth and placed it directly in the scene. Glad you liked how it turned out!
