I have to admit I wasn't smart enough to work out what I had to do at first (I thought I had to avoid the rocks) but once I worked it out I had to align the ships to the shadows I found it a cool refreshing concept! Nice job!

Submitted

It is so challenging. I enjoyed solving these levels.

The concept of 'aura' is not very clear from my point. Does it mean that the selected spaceship move faster than other ones?

Submitted

its good, But I feel like I'm not very clear about what to do, and it has some bugs like the music icons are upside down and for some reason 2 ships appear that I can't control, but I think it's a good step

Developer

Thank you for your feedback 👍 What do you mean by upside down? I considered that the button describes the action it performs and not the current state of the game 🤔 What about the two spaceships? Do you have a screenshot so I can understand better the situation? 🎮 The game has been tested numerous times, and there aren't similar known bugs 🐞 

Submitted

now that you mention it, it makes sense

I mean this

Developer

Ohhhh! These are not bugs; these are crucial elements for the puzzles 🧩  Thank you for mentioning it. It is a sign that my game design can be better, I’ll try to avoid such confusion next time ☺️ These transparent spaceships represent the position you seek ☺️

This is absolutely fantastic! great mechanics, models, and music! Overall an incredible game!

Developer

Thank you! I'm super happy to read this 🤩

Submitted

Interesting and original.

I figured out the goal of the game through trial and error, but I think a better explanation in the description would have been helpful.

A minor point, but it is odd how music is off by default. I originally thought the game had no sound.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! 😊

Indeed, I struggled to explain the dynamics without giving all answers 🤔 The commander is talking to you along with your attempt on the right side of the screen, but it may not be enough ☺️

Concerning the sound, I usually turn it off by default on the browser, but it may not be the best idea for a Game Jam indeed. Thank you for your advice 👍

What a cool idea! Took me a while to get it but was fun when I figured it out ^_^

Submitted

Incredibly unique, albeit needing a bit of getting used to. Great job! Level 9 was a bit too hard for me so I gave up after like 10 attempts :(

Developer(+1)

Wow 🤩 Super good! The last two levels are for try-harders! Congratulation for level 8 🎉 In level nine, I start by adjusting the two last rows, then when moving the first two rows, I keep an eye on the third row with its three spaceships that can easily collide 🧐

Submitted

Great idea, the controls were a bit finicky though. I couldn't go past level 7, my first two spacecarfts keep crashing into each other :(
Really good job!

Developer

Thank you! Well done! The last levels are challenging 😇 To not crash your spaceships in level 7, select the one below immediately after the start, so they move away from each other 🤫
