In what way does your game fit the theme?
The enemy spaceships shoot beams to slow the player. Their effects are stronger when there are more of them
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all code and made all pixel art, but used a royalty-free music track and stars asset

Took some time to realize, but then I noticed you can only press W and not A S D. The game itself was honestly pretty fun, I loved shooting the enemies and the movement polish is on point. The game still needs a little more polish but nevertheless really good game!
Would love if you check mine out :)
First few attempts, I died only a couple of seconds in so maybe a little bit of leniency especially at first can help players stick around. But after that the game got going and I enjoyed my time with it. Good job.
AMAZING GAME, It was amazing, it had really good controls, and amazing sound effects, it was really immersive, it was a bit too hard, but it was great if you were going for a hard game, maybe try adding lives, but overall, really really really fun gameplay. Ireally enojoyed your game, well done.

Nice idea, it just needs a lot of polishing. Good job.
If you have time check out my game

Very beautiful and enjoyable game! It would have been nice, if the player had more lives, so he doesnt get one-shotted. Nevertheless a game with a lot of potential!
I think that you made a beautiful game that's honestly brimming with a lot of potential.
Things I liked:
Suggestions for improvement:
I'd really appreciate if you could review my game when you get a chance.
Thanks for all of the feedback and ideas, I was not working on anything before this Jam and so I might rewrite a few of the scripts and then continue to work on it
Art and music are nice. Gameplay needs a lot of polish. Adding some health, moving the camera back, replacing the invisible walls on the sides of the map with something like asteroids to show the player where they can go and giving the player more shots before reloading - all of that would improve the experience for me.
It's a bit hard to see oncoming enemies, I suggest moving the player to the side of the camera so more is shown in front
I'd love it if you considered rating my game as well
Thanks for the feedback, I did not realize until submitting that having navy blue enemies is not a good idea in a space game!
I like art and sound, besides it is way too hard to play.
If you added HP and a wasd control, this game would be playable. In it's current state, it gives too little power to the player.
This game is incredibly difficult. Maybe add some health pick-ups.
I am not skilled enough for these types of games, but still enjoyed it.
Great art and sound design, this game has a really nice atmosphere
I really enjoyed the game. It reminds me of the games I used to play when I was younger. Very nice art direction and the sound design is great!
The theme is respected "stronger together" and I have no problem with the difficulty since it brings a real dynamism to the game.
Good job!

Rally cool game but it's litle bit hard for me.
I like music and graphics.
You can also check my game.

The graphic style is very nice and I can see the concept you were aiming for, cool!
Sadly I was having a hard time, it's very difficult!
yeah, I ran out of time with the enemies a bit, and it is only just now occurring to me that a navy blue missile is not good when using a black bachround. Thanks for playing!
Had a really tough time with only 3 shots and being bad at these types of games haha. I liked the graphics, all the planets and stuff looked really nice. I think for an unfinished game you did a great job and should be proud of it.
