Extremely well polished experience. The art combined with the lighting and sound created a great ambience. The gravity/movement system worked very well and the controls felt really nice. Interesting idea for the kaiju too! Overall really great game :)

The ambient sounds really sold the vibe and ambience in this, and the visuals are really pretty. This pulls off a really interesting vibe and aesthetic, and there were a couple unexpected things too. Nice

Developer

Thanks for your feedback. I hope a couple of unexpected things were really interesting)

Eldritch atmospheric masterpiece! This is an outstanding take on the theme of the jam and it’s very much appreciated. I absolutely adored the play with gravity, terrifying imagery, loop mechanics and scares!

Good job on this. It's nice and polished, works very smoothly! I was a bit confused as to what was going on, but the graphics and gameplay were pretty solid.

I really liked the atmosphere! The kaijus seemed like more of an afterthought unfortunately. But apart from that the game was delightful

I loved this game, beautiful in every regard to it's design and look.

It took a bit of time to get used to, but it wasn't bad for a walking sim. Honestly, I just kind of wish there was more to this. Maybe having moments where you need to travel back and forth between planets would have helped, or throwing in some kind of puzzle on trying to slingshot yourself in order to get the distance needed. Maybe even a dialogue box or two if you have confidence in your writing.

Not sure if it was just a me issue, but I got flooded with a bunch of errors when first downloading this and while playing there was no sound (which I assume there was supposed to be given the credits).

Developer

Thank you for feedback. The project was tested on several platforms, and the sound was everywhere, but thanks again for playing

Doesn't really fit the theme of kaiju, and I have no idea what's going on. It just leaves me confused more than anything. A smaller nitpick: since the game is controlled with just the keyboard, I think the menu should be too.

Keep up the good work.
