Much better than the "top rated game", good job!
Wow thx, that means a lot!
You guys did a great job with the game! The music and visuals were really nice.. The interpretation of the theme was cool too! However I was kinda lost on what to do in the first room thingy.. but thats probably me being dumb.. Great work overall!
Thx so much. Don't blame yourself we put the levels together last minute.
Good game guys, I felt like the boom effect was a little too bright after playing it for a bit, but overall good concept :D
We'll charge that if we ever update the game. Thanks for playing.
I like the core(ha!) concept, but I feel like controlling the orb is kind of difficult. I suppose that's the point, but it makes things that should be simple a little more difficult than they should be. I don't know that I really have anything more constructive to add to that, just that at times I didn't care for it.
On the other hand, the sprite work is great, and the music has this chaotic feel to it that I really dig. Overall It's pretty good, I just had some difficulty controlling it.
Thx so much! I worked really hard on the music and sound, I wasn't the one who made the mechanics. I agree the orb was a bit finicky.
At first it seems a little clunky controlling the orb, but once you get the hang of it, it can be really satisfying! awesome art and music!
Thx so much, glad you liked it! BBomb (who made the main mechanic) loves to create with speed running in mind. So thats why the mechanic appealed to him
Great game guys! Great to see people able to collaborate and make something cool in such a small amount of time
Thx so much! We way over scoped but I'm glad you liked it.
this game is very pog
You are very pog for checking it out!
Amazing Job Guys! Would love to see some explosion particle effects when destroying the enemy ships, but really fun game :)
aww thanks ED , ohh yes we will be sure to add that !! got it
Thanks FME! Yeah we kind of ran out of time for polish at the end leaving out some stuff we would have liked to add such as screenshake and sfx. But we might revisit this game in the future, so who knows :)
Thanks so much my guy!

Great Comment NGL , thanks for Playing the Game
I mean this with all my heart, this was poggers my dudes. You guys made an aesthetically pleasing game with a fun mechanic in such a short time, congrats :D
Thank BBomb for the mechanic! I did all the art and music and we stressed a lot, but having three programmers on your side takes a lot of stress off you. Glad you enjoyed the game.
Thx Fennec Fu Games
