Nice game! really like how the level spawns as you run.

Nice concept and the mechanics feel really nice! Maybe the meteors could do a bit more damage as I was able to run straight through 'em without dying, but that's just a minor thing. Very well done!

Developer

Thanks so much for playing, so glad you enjoyed it. I fthe metoers hit you twice then yu're dead. I found I fthe kill on one hit it can be frustrating but what I can maybe do is increase their speed a bit. Thanks for the tip. :)

You would die on two hits already, wow, I guess I must have been just very lucky then ^^

The animations for the character are brilliant and I love all the effects and overall design of the level. I took a bit of time for me to understand what was going on and what I was supposed to do, but I managed to get the hang of it. Good job!

Developer

So glad you enjoyed it and had fun. Thank you so much :)

Quite a unique one, felt more like a technical demo than a game at some points but have to say I enjoyed it when I found out you could run around, and found it quite peaceful- which is ironic considering how much is going on! Also the planet coming into view was awesome.

I thought the movement animations felt really good and with a bit more time I think this could be a super cool concept. Also I died twice but have no idea how really, I think I went backwards but wasn't really sure! GG!!

So glad you enjoyed it. And glad you discovered the peace. The stations on the outside actually stop the countdown timer so you can also just chill there :P,
The rotating obstacles give damage to you, that could be what happened, I did add a sound but I don't think it is enough, maybe need something more visual as well. Thanks for the heads up, will look into that. Thank you so much for playing.  :)

I had fun, it reminded me a bit of Dark Deception. Didn’t have any real gripes with it.

Developer

I actually went to YT to see what that game was, Dark Deception, didn't know about it, but I see what you mean. :)

Developer

Super glad you enjoyed it 😀, and even more stoked you enjoyed the sound. I wasn't sure if I'd managed to get it right. Thank you so much for playing. 🙂

This was a lot of fun, I loved figuring out exactly where you can and can't run while having meteors fall all around you. Sound design was pretty awesome. I thought it was a creative way of meeting the "contrast" theme of the game jam. You've got epic explosions and music mixed with Rugrats' style pick ups and pick up / falling sounds.

Good job man! Can tell you put a lot of work into this. Not completely sure how it ties into the theme other than it being a bit dark, good job though!

You should play Meteor rush 1.2 if you didn't, The first upload my sky didn't package but fixed the issue in 1.2. TBH I couldn't think of a gameplay feature with contrast so decided I would use the environment to create contrastness with a day night cycle and with the music, heavy explosion happening all around with fantasy music playing, Tried to get the effect you get when watching a movie, seeing a war and all bad things happening with that epic score in the background. 
So glad you enjoyed it, thank you for playing. :)
