How does your game match the theme?
The theme of the jam was SPACE! The obvious answer for us is that our game takes place in outer space. During development, we tried to give our game a distinct space-y feel, with not only art but physics as well. However, we interpreted the theme as more than just a setting, but also a style of gameplay. It's a 2D platformer where touching any of the surrounding terrain can result in a crash. Unlike a traditional 2D platformer where the challenge comes from landing precise jumps or fighting enemies, the dangerous terrain gives our game a distinct focus on precise positioning and keeping distance from obstacles, or spacing, in other words.

Cool lander game. Great work on the opening cinematics that really set up the scene.

Great game!

But I'd like to see the colliders, because some times I only touch with a pixel!

Love the graphics and music.

Nice one, always love the double achievement for the secondary theme.

I have a hard time playing it… because the arrows are mapped on another layer of my keyboard. So the level 3 is impossible for me like this. But the games remind me of flash games where you also moved to a landing site as an helicopter or a spaceship.

Good job!
