Came back to say I played about 50 jam games today, this one was my favorite. Awesome job!

Thank you!! That means so much to us!!! 💖

Solid presentation, one of the most polished games I've seen, also has some interesting puzzles, but like people have said the portals can be used to cheese it, maybe make a red zone around the earth where portals can't be placed.

Developer

Thanks so much!

This is a pretty fun experience!  It is really polished and I appreciate the simple but elegant design.  The one critique I would make is the the portals make the game way too easy to cheese by just putting one on the moon and the other on the meteor.  Maybe you could have one of the portals in a fixed position to solve that!  Otherwise, well done, and congrats on completing a game!

Developer

Thank you so much! That fixed portal idea is really interesting! It could definitely solve some of the game's issues and add some interesting puzzle possibilities!

The portals make the levels that feature them ridiculously easy, but other than that this game is alright.

I had so much fun with this, beat the whole thing. The portals make completion super easy but I still loved using them and thought it was awesome when they were introduced

I took me some time to realize these lines inside the toolbox are actually the tools. It would also make sense if I could play the entire game with mouse only.

Other than that it feels polished and I think it's nice little game. Good work.

Is the rock literally out of control? I can't seem to make any action with any of the keyboard shortcuts. What's wrong?? :'(

* EDIT: Managed to play the game! The small stripes at the bottom were the tools! Got it now!

* EDIT2: Finished the game, it was pretty interesting gameplay. But one could move the tools to play the game like it's "pong". It made all levels super easy. :)

This turned out to be a really neat and relaxing puzzle game with interesting mechanics and lots of content. I found myself spending quite some time playing this. Well done!

Very polished game, good job! The gameplay itself is fun too, but you can't really predict in which the direction the asteroid will be reflected, so it's mostly getting the asteroid laying on the platform and then bringing it to earth. And with the portals you can just place one at the planet and the other one at the asteroid to win without even pressing "launch" xD

Submitted(+1)

Great idea! I did find a way to easily beat almost every level. If you put one portal on the moon and one on the asteroid, you win no matter what.

Developer

Yeah that was something we realized a little too late to fix lol

Submitted

I was very confused. I spent about 3 minutes trying to figure out how to play, but I honestly had no idea. Some form of tutorial would have gone a long way.

Developer(+1)

Yeah that was definitely a miss, hope you eventually figured it out! 💖

Congrats on making a game, and better luck next time I guess! Not every attempt can be a success, and I feel like we often learn more from failures than successes

Submitted

Can't really figure out what to do. Launch Meteorite works, and it's stable but I can't figure out the win condition :/

You're trying to hit the moon. Took me a minute, too.

Developer

Yeah that was definitely a miss, hope you eventually figured it out! 💖
