Your 1-bit pixel art style is really good!

My suggestion would be to repeat the background and scroll it at the same speed as the planets.
Also, don't let planets with a straight trajectory spawn in the middle; they're impossible to avoid.

Bug: sometimes the ship would disappear (at least there were no invisible planets).
Also, I didn't know whether it was endless so I stopped at level 11 but I had fun :)

Yeah I saw that bug, it's a bit weird but at least it's not game breaking.

A scrolling background would have been great, I thought about it too late.

Levels are endless, but level 11 is a good score, thank you for playing!

Rock solid single-input concept with a crisp visual aesthetic, and the added benefit of dogs.
I'd say it needs a little music, but I have no doubts the pilots had the windows down, and where there is no atmosphere, no one can hear you bark.

Great work, and good luck! :D

Cool concept :)

I love the sounds effect !!

Took some time until I understood the gameplay. I thought "planets move back in time" means that they go back to the right edge of the screen. You might want to add some moving background, so it feels like the ship is moving, and not so much the planets. But once I understood it, it was actually quite fun!

The visuals and audio effects are really nice! Dogs!

Unfortunately this would not load in Safari, Firefox or Chrome on a Mac.  In chrome it just says, "unreachable".

Developer (1 edit)

I'm sorry to hear that. That's weird, I tested on Firefox and Chrome on Linux without problem, but I don't have a Mac to test on.

Thank for trying anyway!
