Great! Even though moving my mouse from one side of the screen to another to click on the asteroids was tiring (i don't have touchscreen), it was still very satisfying to play!

Developer

Yeaaaaah, while the intention was to kind of split your focus/attention I think it ALSO does give your wrist a bit too much of a workout. Glad you still had a overall satisfying experience though! Thanks for commenting!

Really cool entry, awesome polish and I love the astroids animating to the beat!

Developer(+1)

haha, so glad you noticed the asteroids! I ummmm...did some really last minute guessing with that animation HOPING it would match up close enough to the beat when it started to play in the browser. Hope you enjoyed playing and I appreciate you leaving a comment!

Amazing visuals. Gameplay was good too, felt too easy at first but got quite hectic when nearing the 2 minutes mark. 

Let's all space more billionaires and make the world a better place :)

Developer

I'm glad we can all agree that spacing billionaires is a truly freeing experience. Thanks for the kind words and feedback on the difficulty progression!

Eye candy for sure ! And the whole gameplay never felt hard or easy it just felt righ. Great job

Developer(+1)

Glad to hear you say that! The last thing I did before submitting it was tinker with the difficulty progression just HOPING it wasn't too hard or too easy. Thanks for playing!

I'm glad it was able to come together in the end! Thanks for playing!

always clean graphics! (we can't say the same about space when it's me playing ;-;) and GG for such generous gameplay in such a short time!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Sometimes building an idea around an asset pack works out great and then the work flow miraculously goes smoothly.

Really awesome!! I love the graphics and I think the difficulty curve is perfect! One of the best in this jam for sure

Developer(+1)

Glad the difficulty curve wasn't too steep or wayyyy too easy! I really did go back in forth when trying to decide on that before publishing. Thanks a lot for playing and taking the time to leave a comment!

Great job, chaotic and yet very readable. Good progression of difficulty. A*

Developer

Haha, if you only knew the nonsensical "oh well I hope this works" nonsense I kept throwing in to make that progression of difficulty seem "right-ish".  Thanks for playing!

The artistic style is cohesive and truly beautiful. The explosions add a lot of 'juice' to the game. For me, it's one of the best in the jam. Congratulations!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing and all the kind words! I tried to put as much "juice" into it as I could within the time limit. The basic gameplay actually game together quicker than I expected because of using this engine in the past, but balancing and screen resolution issues kept popping up sooooo I'm just glad it mostly "works".

we should do this in real life 10/10 GOTY
anyways the artstyle of the main sprites reminded me of antonblast

altough i feel like being able to click the meteors distracted a bit from the billionares but i was being the stupid:tm:

also billionares should cost less meter because i wanna send more of them into space at once

Developer

100% agree that all of us could benefit from sending billionaires on a one way trip to space. 

Oooh Antonblast looks fun. Glad more games are starting to take that best things from Warioland.

As for billionaires costing less meter, I also agree. Balancing under the time limit was hard (impossible?) .  But I'm glad you still found blasting them into orbit to be satisfying.

Great story xD and the game is lovely, very enjoyable! I'm against violence but spacing these billionaires at full speed in orbit was fun, I have to admit ^^ Congrats!

Developer

Considering the amount of violence billionaires inflict on us every day, I figured this was the least I could do:) Thank you for playing and letting yourself find joy in class consciousness!
