GangsterBoysI really liked how the ship's turning rate slowed down the bigger it got. That's a nice touch.
Getting those pieces to connect in just the right place though, not easy. :-)

Cookie Cutter ChallengeWell done ! That's an awesome concept, with a flawless realisation and a very polished look ! The fact that you had to think about how to join your pieces together is a really nice twist to the classic SHMUP formula, I really enjoyed it !
Very solid entry, keep up the good work =)
Submitted
Must Dwarves TogetherVery good work! I defenetly need more!
Great music and concentration on the process made me feel the flaw.
In the end I start to bumping all parts around me because of the nice metal sound.

Super Conductorthis is such a good idea and i really want to see this scaled up to include all kinds of different abilities and upgrades! as some other comments said i think it would be more intuitive to change the steering to be similar to asteroids.

"...as tensions rise"So good! The clean presentation makes it easy to focus on what's important and the built-in tutorial was great and easy to follow. Like Benjiiiee below, I really liked how you have to be careful about how you attatch to other pieces - that it's not as simple as flying into upgrades to permanently add them. There could perhaps be a bit more "juice" but that's honestly a small complaint for how well crafted this is. Seriously nice work!

GECKGOReally cool concept! I love how you have to watch out how you attach stuff so it's not damaging you. And even take fire on purpose to destroy something that's badly placed. Good stuff!

CLIFFHANGERThis game is awesome. I'm definitely going to play this one again. It's really fun to build a massive battle ship. At first I thought it was overkill, until a giant enemy ship spawned in and completely obliterated me.
Submitted
Intergalactic Towing ServiceFantastic concept. I disagree with people who say it isn't fun. The minimal art style didn't bother me, although next time I'd consider throwing some bloom and other post processing to add some more game feel if you're going for simple geometric shapes. Still, I went back for a second play through after my first run, so you're clearly doing something right ;)

Peaksthe concept is amazing, but the graphics aren't very good and the game isn't fun. the game could be something though if you implemented more "game feel".
Submitted
Out of AirEven though the graphics were simple, the feel and look of this game was absolutely gorgeous. The mechanics were well implemented and polished. I just wish I didn't have to worry about blowing myself up, though I get that might just be a part of your design.

Modular MothershipControls weren't the greatest but the idea is awesome! Katamari Asteroids.

Puzzle SigmaHoly cow, yes please to this game! I second the suggestion to switch the control scheme to something more like asteroids. However, I love the chaotic situations that can occur if you are not careful, like getting a gun but having it only shoot you. I also love the way you implemented the text in the tutorial. Great work!!!

boxJoin GMTK2021This was super well-conceived! Love that there was a tutorial, that made it feel like a really polished experience. The minimal art is very attractive and the solid CHUNCK sound when elements attached themselves to your craft was very satisfyingly.
I think if I continued to play for long enough I might have eventually become more comfortable with the controls, but as a new player I found the double arrow scheme of moving with WASD and rotating with the arrows a little challenging (kinda like patting your head and rubbing your tummy lol ). I feel like this game would work really well with aiming being handled with a reticle controlled by the mouse.
Submitted
Two Heads Are Better Than OneThanks for the feedback! The mouse aiming would be easier but then it gets weird when you have guns pointing not forward because you can't just point the reticle anymore you have to adjust for where your guns have attached themselves. Not sure how to best get around this issue haha. I think providing both control schemes would be a good workaround though!
This game is really cool! One problem : the control was a bit hard for me.
Submitted
Lost SignalThe concept is indeed really similar to what I did, the execution is quite different though, I really went for action when you really added a strategy element to it. The power ups and friendly damage really change the feel of the game. Nice spin on the idea !
Submitted
ConjoinedShipsYou are right we did have some similar ideas! Epically interesting we both added power up parts that did similar things!
I actually took out self damage from mine because I got too sad when I blew up part of my own ship, maybe you could have the shot not go though you but also not damage you?
