Theme interpretation
What caused this lone astronaut to get separated from his ship? Not much of his tale is known except that he has enough determination to take a shot at exploring the vastness of space looking for an answer.

I enjoyed this once I got the controls working (I was confused at first because up/down wasn't doing anything).  Fun movement.  Very chill, very forgiving - does it go on forever?

Nice infinite runner, the introduction of the mechanics is nice, the graphics feel good, but the music is AMAZING. Just learned there's no failure state after flying over 1500 then decided to let my character die, haha. Planets? I can handle that, but I really hate those asteroids. Great game!

Nice and relaxing gameplay! Cool music and smooth controls once you get use to it. I had a bit of trouble at first to be able to use the control keys but thanks to your instructions: “click on the bottom blue bar” I made it ;)

Well done!

A nice base for an endless runner game, and I thought the slow introduction of the mechanics was a good touch. Obviously you'd need an actual fail state if you continued developing it, and you'd probably want there to be some progression (difficulty curve, new items to dodge etc.).

I really liked your soundtrack. This is a cool little game (although with some bugs) but overall I enjoy playing it a lot.

Well done!  I never figured out the jetpack, though.

You've got a great start here. The game controls simply and well, the graphics are clean and nice, the music is good, the concept is sound. Would love to see a little more content... I got to the shuttle and then was just kind of going forever without much purpose. I also am not sure what the jetpack is useful for... the other moves were all useful but that one not so much. Nice job!

The music and art are nice. It's also cool to see it was made with LÖVE and Lua scripting. Game is simple and I like how you introduce the player to the gameplay elements at the beginning through narrative. Well done!

Nice game. Takes time getting used to controls. Music is awesome ! Congrats !

I don’t think you even need a mute button because that song is DOPE! Game is a little challenging and lacks some polish but it’s pretty fun. A few times I got hit by objects multiple times in a row because of the ‘pause’ after being hit. The art is pretty great too. Nice job!
