Great idea! This game has great potential! I also like the music, very nice.
The only problem is the enemy sounds, sometimes annoying or too loud when there are a lot of enemies, it's really annoying. Otherwise, it's a great game, I'll keep playing it for a while longer :3
i liked this game a lot and the design was good great job!
WASD for movement and firing was fun! I really like playing games like these. I feel like it would have been much more fun to build though if the UI was improved and parts could be deconstructed.
Also I feel like the tutorial should be in the actual game, not just the question mark on the main menu, because I did not notice it until after I beat the game.
I would love to see a fleshed out version of the game with a better UI for building.
The Video Pitch and the Idea of a Build Mode is so peak, keep it up
Really fun game with a cool concept!
This game was quite fun! I like how WASD is used for both movement and firing your weapons. The video pitch and sound effects were very funny.
The one main thing you could improve on is the ship building. There were time where I selected a box and it didn't show when I tried to place it. I also would have like it if you where able to delete and move placed boxes. I also find it annoying that you close out of the game when you die.
But overall, I had a good time and I hope that you continue working on this after the jam.
Good game but I think the building mechanic should have been communicated better
this game is really fun! the audio and artwork are really good, and the game feels very polished and refined. i think it's difficult early game, to attack the enemies from the sides and the fact that you need to close and reopen the game every time you die is a bit annoying. it would also be cool to be able to delete/move stuff you put on your ship. the game is solid though and it's very fun.
Ahhhh i really liked this idea - reminded me a lot of Reassembly - and the upgrade system being tied to the WASD modules was really cool! Also holy heck the sound design on that boss fight laser was so good.
Some things i'd love to see would be a way to move/remove pieces youve placed - I may have accidentally placed thrusters in the wrong direction and beat the boss fight by spinning around wildly near them :P
Also to that vein maybe also the pieces visually rotating when you rotate them in build mode to prevent confusion! But this is mainly a me issue ahaha
Really solid idea, could see it being developed in ways and has a cool premise with the shipbuilding!

I am so glad I am playing every cat game, because it led me to stumble into this phenomenal game. I had to get used to the controls at first, but once I got used to them I was hooked. This game is so polished, the sound effects are great (and hilarious) and the art is so beautiful. I loved when I would press space and the blueprint would roll out- it was chefs kiss.
I liked that I had to work for my upgrades, and the increasing difficulty was challenging, but not impossible.
The video pitch was really funny too, and I think it fit perfect for the submission to go with the silly aspects of the game.
I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed our game :) Thanks for the awesome feedback and trying out the game!!
It was really fun and funny. I liked playing it, probably gonna try to atleast defeat a satellite later. I wish I could set up the initial setup by myself. Also each box could have its own hp, would make the damage less impactfull, with a core box inside which would be required to be kept safe. The ability to edit the ship would be nice. Other than that really nice game, would like to see a full and fleshed out version!!

It was fun, I really wish there was a way to move/edit your ship parts. I think it would add a lot of fun if you were able to rearrange the starting ship at least. I find the default one a bit clunky. Nice art and music too!
cool game, harder than I thought. It has flaws, and can be hard to hit things.
really interesting idea, I think the best parts were the art music and sfx, you could see a lot of heart was put into this. Gameplay wise the game was interesting, but flawed, for example at the start not being able to shoot in more than one direction was kinda annoying, or the fact I could only ever get two of the three materials and couldn't craft anything other than a rocket once (also I couldn't get very far at all, but that's prolly just a skill issue on my side). Also the ui was weird, I think it was more right than it shouldv'e been? like I was only able to see the very beginning of my health bar, same for the settings ui.
Pretty fun game! I think the execution could have been done a bit better, especially with how often enemies get stuck on the ship in the early game. But the game was fun to play and the audio was pretty funny.
I like the idea of box spaceship, and it being run by cats.
Cute game very funny, love the vibe and the art style. Sightly rough in spots but 100x than my first jam and you should be incredibly proud!!!
