Awesome art and a great gameplay loop, wasn't sure if I could destroy the drills but destroying the little guys was fun :)

Thanks for playing!

You can destroy them (and you should!) by jumping on the top of them or tossing robot parts at them :)

Love the art and aesthetics. It is indeed a bit hard to control but feels polished and good to play.

I really enjoyed the visual style and music! Especially the little robot voices :D

It's a fun concept, where it's easier to get around while your planet is smaller, but you're obviously gonna lose if it gets TOO small!

Crazy good for a game made in 4 days! Awesome & consistent art style. Cool sounds and music. Clever gameplay. I wouldn’t be surprised to see this in Marc's video.

Late stage capitalism at its finest! Seriously though how did you make this game in under 4 days? It looks great.

Thank you very much for playing, we're glad you enjoyed it!

We've been doing game jams together since 2019 (about 15 total I think), we're starting to know the drill (pun very much intended)!

Damn this is really polished up, the scoreboard was a nice touch for replayability, the art is great and theres lots of game juice! I felt jumping is a bit rough, I loved the “inflate planet” idea, this is really creative and clever, congrats!!

A stark and grim reminder that under capitalism we are but resources to be exploited. Exploitation doesn't have to be a bad thing though, with the sponsor of this comment! Drillax Inc. 
Drillax, you thought we couldn't drill our propaganda into your comment section, but you were wrong.

(Honestly though, great game <3)

Fun game! Really liked the gameplay loop and the interactions with the enemies! A suggestion would be to make the robot parts have limited uses to make the floor a bit cleaner?

Submitted(+1)

Want to see more of it !

really fun game, but sadly a bit to much for my laptop in the browser.

Extremely cute, fun, and beautifully executed. Controls were sometimes a little finicky, but did not reduce enjoyment. Nicely done!
