This was fun to play!

I love the art style, very minimalist yet evocative. It reminds me of Crayon Physics Deluxe.

Some feedback on what tripped me up: Shooting lasers takes too long. I found it frustrating to wait for the lasers to come out of the ship. It is hard to shoot precisely when I need to account for that kind of delay.

Initially, it was unclear to me that I could not shoot the little stones.

Your sound effects and music are very arcade-like, which imo does not fit the visual art style. I would have leaned into the theme of someone sketching out the scenario on paper more strongly here, for example:

• human-made fake “pew pew” or explosion sounds
• a pen scratching on paper to respawn the ship

Very evocative audiovisual design. You feel the postapolyptic vibe throughout the game. I failed due to “performative paralysis” – this feels like a political comment on my existence somehow.

I’m glad you figured out how to advance :)

There are a lot of avenues to explore from here on. I will be experimenting with a few over the next week and see where it goes.

Thanks for trying it out and providing feedback 💜

A gentler introduction to the game is certainly missing, I will need to think about how best to do this.

I am curious about your further progress, too. When you make it farther, let me know how it went.

Thank you for the feedback! 💜 It is quite helpful to learn which parts of the interface players have trouble understanding.
