I like artwork in this game, for me very good! Also good gameplay!

I enjoyed how Arcade Planet Looper feels; it reminds me a lot of Frogger or Pac-Man, where it's easy to control but hard to master, and extremely addictive, which makes you want to play again and again to achieve a better high score. The graphics and sound help sell the retro look and feel you see in arcade games or on the 4th generation consoles like the Super NES or Sega Mega Drive/Genesis. The music also goes well, giving the game a sort of calm atmosphere despite you moving around planets a high speed and flying off into deep space or crashing into planets a lot. I also like how the player has to take into consideration the planet's gravity and their position when they launch their ship; it helps add a bit of complexity to the game.

Had fun, the game look great, i didn't get a good score because i'm terrible at rythm and can't aim properly, do i got like 4 planet in row max, but still had fun! the artwork look really good though, it's really good pixel art congrat's

Fun Idea and use of visuals, would have liked a slower staring orbit speed I think though

Submitted

I may have missed something but always crashed quite early into each run. Getting into orbit is hard and I don't exactly understand what I have to do. 

The art remains beautiful, I wish I could have enjoyed it more. 

Submitted

I like the concept but it could do with a smoother difficulty curve. Right from the start getting into orbit and timing everything correctly is very challenging. 

Submitted

Great idea, straightforward to play, but it's so hard!

I'm obsessed with the art - Deep-Fold seems like a super effective art generating tool for a space game like this!  For me the gameplay feels a little too punishing, it would really bring it up a notch if the gravity was a little more forgiving - was hard to launch the ship consistently at such specific angles.  Really fun little idea though!

Submitted

Nice idea about game , but I think I play this type game , but I like that I can play it again

Submitted

another great planet game, love it!

Submitted

Stuck in the loop… and I love it.

Submitted

A challenging game with beautiful art! There is a clear goal and it feels super polished!
I did feel a bit cheated a few times by the gravitational pull >:(

Submitted

The visuals of the game are incredible. It's also really challenging but actually lots of fun. Excellent job!

Submitted

Congratulations on the game! It looks and feels super polished. Additionally, I just love the explosion animation when we hit a planet! (No..  I am not just a terrible pilot :P)

Submitted

This is addicting!  I appreciated the quick restarts so I could get back in there right away and try again.  It's an interesting combination of chill and frustrating lol.  My high score is 3450.

Submitted

Nice way to use orbiting in a loop theme!

Submitted

A nice chill game about making PLANET loop!

Submitted

The game looks perfect! I hope this game is in the top 20 games!

Submitted

The loop of the game and the base game is very simple. But man..the art..the art bought me. Good job mate!

Submitted

So tough it made me cry. My high score is only one billion.
