Such a good game. Looks great and the mechanics work amazingly well. It also has a nicely balanced difficulty. Amazing stuff.

This game has a nice coat of polish on it I really like it! It is kinda difficult to make the jumps, can't really tell if i'll make it or not. But I do like the concept!

Great work!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I'm glad you like the idea :D

The visuals and music were nice, jumping from planet to planet is tough; overall nice job and congratulations on your submission!

Developer

Thank you appreciate that :D 

Submitted(+1)

I like the music. It really fits the atmosphere of the game. I had a hard time picking up on the correct positioning for the jumps. I also think this game could benefit from having the camera more zoomed out. I really like the concept!

Developer(+1)

Thank you, that's quite an easy fix to include too, I'll try it out when I update it :)

Submitted(+1)

It took me a minute to get it, as at first I just kept jumping off into space haha but once I got into it I really enjoyed it. I like the art style and I think this is a cool concept. 

My only feedback would be that as someone who found it quite challenging, you have to wait quite a long time to restart (for the text to appear then the menu to come back on) and while I was starting out, I'd like to be able to just spam starting again. 

Maybe if you were to develop it further in future, something like a training zone where you can just have a go at walking and jumping around, and any time you go off into deep space, you can just press 'r' to reset. As once I'd done a bit of practice it was better but it felt hard to get to a point where I knew what to do.

Good job and nice game!

Developer

Yeah a tutorial may have helped a lot. Glad to hear you figured it out and enjoyed it though :D also i really like the idea of a training zone, that could be a cool funny way to teach the player the ropes. I may use that so thanks!

Great design  and concept  :D

Developer

Thank you :)

This is great! Character and visual style looks amazing, movement of character is fluid and game is challenging. Mechanics are also unique and it takes a great twist on the theme. Really great game, awesome job!

Developer

Thank you, I appreciate the kind feedback and I'm glad you enjoyed it :D

This looks pretty good.

I found the jumping between worlds a bit too fine to be fun, if you are just slightly out of the correct area, deep space is the destination.

Really like the combination of 2D and 3D for the game art and the animations are nice as well.

Thanks for the game.

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback, It seems a lot of people have noticed the harsh aiming for the jumps. I'll be sure to fix that first :) 

Submitted(+1)

Fun game. I liked the art style and music. 

Developer

Thank you :)

Submitted(+1)

Was real fun! the character looks amazing

Developer

Thanks, glad you liked it :)

Submitted(+1)

Interesting mechanics! Took some time to get used to the aiming, but it's quite a fun game.

Developer

Appreciate the feedback, It might benefit from some kind of indicator or build up to the jump. I'll look into that :)

Submitted(+1)

Nice job, good progress for only a few days... flung myself in to space waaaay too many times, but had fun doing so :)

Developer

Haha nice, I'm glad you had fun. Thanks for playing :)

Submitted(+1)

This is amazing, great job! I did something a little similar with the movement in my game - yours is much more fleshed out. Only feedback would be to get back into the game faster when i mess up. 

Developer

Oh nice, I'll be playing some more games tomorrow now I'll be sure to check it out... Thanks for playing, I'll take the feedback into account when I update it too.

Submitted(+1)

This is a cool little game, I love the main mechanic, but I did find it slightly confusing. Would have benefitted from some mini tutorial at the start menu, but this can be easily added, Great idea, with more story behind it could be a an indie banger on Steam!

Developer

Thank you I appreciate that :) Tutorials and sounds are the first things on my to-do list when I add more to it. Glad you liked it though :D 

Submitted(+1)

Great job ! Some sound could be more pleasant but overall it's amazing work for only 4 days ! Keep it up !

Developer

Yeah I really wish I put some sounds in there, I left it until last and then ran out of time adding features and fixing some bugs. Appreciate the feedback

Submitted(+1)

This was fun! Planet hopping felt good but I wish it was a bit more forgiving.  I felt bad for the little dude just freezing out in space whenever I missed a jump lol.

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed it and yeah the jumps are done through a raycast, probably a better more forgiving way to set that up. But Space is a harsh place... 

Submitted(+1)

This game has a lot of potential and I hope you'll expand on it in future

Developer

Thanks, I hope to add more to it when the jam is officially over :D 

Submitted(+1)

This game has a lot of potential, I had a lot of fun. It's a little confusing on which planet's you are able to jump to and not but otherwise great game especially with 4 days. The effects are a strong point also.

Developer

Maybe I could include some kind of indicator to fix that 🤔 Thanks for playing!

Submitted(+1)

Nice little game, it feels very polished and well-rounded. Great work and a solid take on the jam theme!

Developer

Thank you for the kind and positive feedback I really appreciate it! 


I’ll be playing other people’s submissions tomorrow through the day, I’ll be sure to return the favour and leave some feedback for your game too :) 

Developer

I should mention I used some free assets to make this game too. The music comes from freesound.org, some free assets from the unity asset store were used and finally the planets are from Kenney. I would put it in the description but I don't know if I can edit now the jam has finished.
