Ranked from 5 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

Did you work in a team?
I worked alone on this project.

Was the resolution a challenge?
The resolution was a challenge. Figuring out how to get Unity's Pixel Perfect Camera and UI to scale properly at different window sizes was the hardest part. Trial and error and research were the solutions.

What did you learn?
I've only successfully completed one other jam before, so I was definitely trying to break that spell. I heavily relied on public assets this time, which helped a lot in managing time as a solo participant and programming specialist. I learned a lot about Unity's pixel perfect camera and a bit more about the new UI Toolkit system. I also learned more about RNG for spawning.

Cool little game! I like the black hole mechanic. Felt a bit easy to me, but it's a solid game overall!

Good job!
