It's a fun concept, but I kept getting my satellites destroyed by asteroids which I had no control over which was annoying since I was also unable to meet the requirements. I think some alternative to asteroids would be good or just changing them a bit. Here are some of my ideas: rusting satellites, satellites get damaged from asteroids and need to be repaired, asteroids don't one shot satellites.
I also like the art, especially the planet!

SpinbladeSuper cool concept. very simple to understand and play, perfect for a gamejam!

Time Agent 2: Save the DJSimple but clever concept and excellent execution. I did like how you were stuck in a loss spiral if too many satellites got hit by an asteroid, since that made the +3 satellites option a lot more appealing, but it is really annoying that the satellite regeneration is really slow when you're behind.
Still a great game overall, though!

DAMIRROR and the Loop MachineWow, I got immediately very sucked into the game loop here! Definitely could see myself idling this for a long time, especially if there were more complex upgrades and obstacles. Few quick ideas of how it could go further -- unstable / non-periodical orbits, chaining together satellites with power lines to destroy asteroids for upgrade points, etc. Love how much depth comes out of managing a very simple initial system; and the slingshotting of satellites especially makes it fun and a little chaotic. Nicely done!

Loop ProtocolPretty hard, but somehow still relaxing. I didn't realize immediately that you could stop the orbit (and not just accelerate it). They are still tricky to avoid, and their hitbox can be difficult to guess. Also once I was under the satellite demand, it was always impossible for me to get back up. Still, the concept is nice, and I had fun playing it! Also the art and sound are absolutely soothing.
Loved the art and the concept was amazing. However, I thought it got really hard really fast.

Reinvent The WheelSimple game loop excecuted really well. Definitely found it hard to recover, took a bad hit and then was just 2 down. Felt like the difficulty ramp was maybe a bit harsh, but unlocked the third orbit so maybe it's about right.

Loop RunnerThis was a simple game but damn it was executed incredibly well. Easy to understand premise, beautifully clean aesthetic with some vibey music in the background (suitably space themed), and a growing complexity as the match goes on. Great work!

Moovin' Milkin'Simple but addictive.
I find it difficult to recover after being hit by one or two asteroids. Maybe a bit help when the player is lower on signal would be great?

The Beat Strikes BackThis game has a great artstyle, and lots of polish! I do wish there was a bit more to do with it though. The name is especially creative.
