This is a creative game with a cool aesthetic and a unique gameplay loop. I like the all planets with their wind directions and variety of wacky and fun little creatures, and the little details like the scout ships' health being displayed via their lights and them taking less damage on their sides. One thing I might add would be to have the meteor sound for the ones that come from the left or right be "panned" left or right (using the Sound behavior's "pan" input) so that you get a bit of extra warning for them, since you can't see them coming as well as you can see the top or bottom ones. Aside from that I think this is a nice and complete experience, great work Tod!

Thanks again for the assist. Theres a lot more i'd Ike to add. The wind and gravity variables don't work currently and there should be more distractions and defenses in the later levels. Some better audio and juice, too.
Im glad I got what I did finished. I wouldn't have gotten over the finish line without some last minute critical help from JR01.
It's not my favorite concept, but i think its my best jam game for several jams. Ill be interested to see if I can break the top 10 this round.
