Nice controls and very cool game concept! Loved your game!

The movements were so satisfying! The music was great, too. Great job on this! :D

Very fluid controls and cool style!

I loved the spaceship movement, really good. The game looked awesome and the sound was nice too. Solid entry!

Submitted

Cool idea, cool ambiance, great job !

This was a fun game! The drifting was difficult but felt right for an arcade style game. I also really enjoyed the ship designs and the boost indicator on the players ship!

Submitted

I like the crash sound and the lost control feeling.It's good!I like it

Submitted

Love the concept ! I think the controls would be easier without rotation inertia ^^

Congrats for your entry !

I really like the concept of the game! 

I noticed that every time I picked up a green block, the color of the Earth in the background would change! Also, the music fits the game perfectly. 

The spaceship is a bit difficult to control, and after I died, those police ships kicked me around like a football! hahaha!

Little bit of extra bullying for the fun of it. Left it as a good "animated end screen" when you lose because I thought it was fun

Submitted

Really good! I loved ricocheting off of meteors to get the green boxes until I realized that's why I was dying. The dialogue was really funny and the movement was just the right amount of difficult. If expanded this would make a great rage game.

This was a ton of fun, even if it was a little difficult to control. I had a blast just flying around trying to dodge asteroids and evade the space cops. I was only able to get a high score of 11, but I'd love to know what the threshold is to end the game -- I'm assuming there's some point where you collect enough crates to save the Earth. Graphics are simple but nice, especially the use of parallax to give a sense of depth. Having that planet looming in the background and changing as you collect crates was a great touch.

All in all, this is a great entry, good job!

There is a point where some happens *can confirm*. Although the ending is not as nice as it could be I threw in something to let you know you did really good.

Submitted

Welp, I guess I'm gonna have to make a point of going back and seeing if I can find it then, you've got me curious lol

Submitted

The game feels really good to play but is quite difficult in my opinion. Maybe if the deceleration was faster you could dodge the meteors better?

Developer

A little bit of tweaking could be in order, thank you for the feedback!

Loved the knockback when enemies knock into to you and also the stream affect left by the rocket. The tutorial also helped with understanding what to do and think it was delivered well 馃榾

One things was the text. Was too bright. So from my point of view could be turned down a tad.

Great work 馃殌

Hello, the game could not be launched, an error appears

Developer(+1)

This should be fixed now!! Sorry about that!

Followed your comment back here! I enjoyed your game, but as mentioned before, the .exe file has to be renamed in order to play. The game was very smooth feeling, but I found the controls a bit tricky initially. Once you get used to them, it's pretty satisfying! Also, I enjoyed your use of the limitation. Well done!

Developer

It's supposed to feel almost like you are drifting around space in a drift racing car.

Gameplay's pretty fun and the art is nice (maybe went a bit too strong on the bloom though). Would be nice if the camera was placed more in the direction of movement so I could see where I was going :)

(also side note, you have to rename "No Green Jam (Run This)" to just "No Green Jam" or the project won't run)

Submitted

Thank you for mentioning this! I couldn't get the game to play until reading your comment lol

Developer

Will fix this!! I also have a webGL build coming!
