Clean and simple game! I like way the powerups look visually as well.
IKR? All thanks to https://game-icons.net/
Thanks for playing!!
yooooooo honestly really cool. pretty addicting also. didn't see any bugs, and no complaints besides the fact that the lighting looks a little bit weird when going from one side of the screen to the other. i don't know if there's a way to fix that though? maybe just dim the light as you get close - cause it was very sudden and abrupt the first few times when the light just instantly moved.
nothing else wrong though, good job!
Yeah, coz the rocket is the source of light! I did that to kind of help to focus on the rocket more, but I do understand your point! I will see what I can do! Thank you for playing!
I was mind blown the moment I touched the stars, such a cool and easy and unique concept at once.
I could see that on the playstore on my phone and it would be a great time killer!
GG
Thanks a lot for playing !! I do want to release it for mobile eventually!
very nice music and visuals! interesting and fun gameplay as well.
Thank you!!
Video commentary:
Thanks for playing and for the comments made!! The video was awesome! Taking those powerups really helps you out!! My favorite is "Time Freeze". It helps you get a lot of points!
this game is very good the music is very good it makes the game even more fun
Thank you!!
Really nice game, this works really well. The powerups things are also interesting.
Thanks for playing!!
Really cool concept. I like the background and the effects. Well done
Glad you liked it!
Are u from India?
Very polished game .
Thank you
I can tell a lot of work went into the visuals, they are really polished. The game mechanics are simple and arcade-y, I could definitely imagine a retro version of this being played at some game cabinet or old console.
This makes me happy! I always wanted to build a game that gave the retro vibe or something. I tried before, but I think this one's close. Thanks for your comment!
:)
Simple but fun game. It looks and sounds polished, and just overall a good game.
Thank you for checking it out!
Fun little simple game. The controls and movements are really smooth and enjoyable to use. Snake 2.0 is a good way to describe it as someone else pointed out :D
Yup!! Thanks for playing!
the game is simple and polished, mecanics are fun and in theme, good job!
Thank you!!
Cool! Interest mechanics in this game! This is snake 2.0 in space!
I was originally using snakes!! But they occupied more space!! SO switched to rockets!! Thank you for playing.
Thank you for the game :)
Just....awesome!! One of my favourites so far. So elegant, And the music is perfect! Congrats!!
Glad it's one of your favorites!!
Super cool game! I must say that the idea was simple but brilliant - I had a ton of fun playing it!
Glad you liked it!!
Wow! it was fun! good job! congrats!
thanks for playing!!
Really fun game, nice graphics and music, really cool concept, tho I did not like that when you pick up start that spawn on the middle of screen, the ship spawn and telefrags you. My highscore was 24
Yeah ik that's annoying. I didnt get enough time to think of that, but I got really good suggestions on how to improve the spawning! I'll do it after the jam.
Really fun game! My 2 pieces of constructive criticism is I would have liked it if the main ship was a little different color from the clones so it was more easily noticeable (I know it had a glowing light behind it but it took me awhile before I noticed, wasn't immediately obvious)
The second thing is I would have liked a little break after I lost a life to get a little breather. Like used the time skip power code to pause the game while a respawn animation played out (kinda like geometry wars)
Well done! Excellent gameplay loop!
Thank you for the idea! Yeah, that makes sense! If I had released my game earlier I would have heard about all this in the beginning and would have tried to incorporate that. I will take your suggestions! Thanks a lot!
I'd like to add to this because I agree with developRHUNT. I think the foundation for the game is amazing, and the concept is executed perfectly! The few things I think could make this game feel more complete is what developRHUNT said, as well as the functionality of slowly zooming out the screen to give the player some more space to work with. I think this could make the game more fun but at the same time less challenging/competitive, which, depending on what you're going for, may be a good thing or a bad thing. But I think it would be cool to give the player more space and see hundreds of rockets flying around. It might make the rockets smaller of course, which is probably bad, maybe make a limit to how much it can zoom out? Idk just throwing out an idea. Otherwise, I think the game is amazing!
yup makes sense!! I'll probably do that! I'm so glad to get such nice feedback and suggestions. Thanks to everyone!!
:)
I like the idea and the execution is on point Great job!
Thanks for playing!
