This game was so good! I found it hard to put it down. The gameplay loop was super satisfying, and the coin selling and upgrade mechanics were a nice contrast to the fast paced mining section. The whole presentation was great too, with cohesive visuals, sounds, and music. Amazing work!

This was awesome, the whole comedic tone and presentation with the music, sound and graphics were spot on. Unfortunately I wasn't very good at the game, only just making it past level 1 and unable to finish level 2. I just wish I got to experience more of it! Congrats on the submission!

Nice game, I really like the graphics. As the other commenters have said, audio would have really enhanced the experience. But great job!

Wow, what a polished game! The visuals, sound and music were all great! If I were to change one thing, it would be to highlight danger zone of the moving blades at all times, even while frozen. I often found myself dying because I was just touching the path of a blade when time unfroze, because I couldn't tell the blade was a moving one. Nevertheless, a great submission. Nice work!

This was awesome! I remember the shop plushie and the badass music from last year's jam 😂 Great fun, it was cool to learn how to use my attacks to maximise damage!

Wow, two games in one! The platforming was cool, I appreciated the fact that there were checkpoints. Including a game of 2048 at the end was a surprise! Great work!

Nice little platformer! It was a good level of difficulty and the perfect length for a game jam!

What a cool puzzle game! I love the details on the character like the turn indicator lights. Great work and nice job making all the assets!

Nice job! It was the perfect length for a game jam. Puzzle games are hard to make, but this hit the sweet spot in terms of difficulty. Simple mechanics and well executed, great work!

Awesome game! It was quite slow due to waiting for my energy bar to refill - I would have loved to see a greater effect from the quick recovery upgrade. But buying upgrades and reaching milestones was very satisfying.

A fun little game! Rest in peace all the chickens I accidentally ate. Nice job on the submission!

Nice submission, I liked exploring the little town. The story was sad and it looks like a lot of thought went into it. I had diffculty with the jumping and only figured out where to go by looking at the screenshots. This has potential, I'd love to see where you take it if you decide to expand it!

Awesome game! It was short and polished, perfect for a game jam. I enjoyed the gradual addition of new mechanics and the way I could fly between leaves. The only thing I'd change is to make the player bug permanently visible in the fireflies level, which was a neat idea by the way! Great work on the submission!

Nice platformer! I thought the tutorial was done well. I would've loved a lives or hit points system to make the game a bit more forgiving. But great work, I like the retro vibe!

Nice work! A fun game - it was satisfying to build my own farming empire and watch my cash grow. And great job doing your own music, it really helped to set the chill vibe of the game. If I were to add or change one thing, I'd adjust the camera angle or have some sort of highlight on the field plots when I mouse over, as I often misclicked on the front plots due to obscuring the ones behind. Overall great job, congrats on the submission!

Congrats, I think that's the highest score I've seen! You have definitely beaten my best 😄

This was awesome!! A super polished and charming experience from start to finish. I love the characters and the visuals. Incredible work, well done!

A nice twist on asteroids! Unfortunately my loved one died many many times for the reason MrMarkian mentioned below! 

Great job on the submission 😎

Another CPU defending game, nice!! I ended up playing this one for a while! I like the upgrade system but I would have loved to see the upgrades have a greater effect. Nice music and sounds, and overall a great package. Great work!

Nice job on the submission! The music and aesthetic makes this such a calming experience. I found it hard to understand the mechanics, so a tutorial would have been nice. But overall great work! Keep making games!

Okay, that was easier to fix than I thought it would be. I just enabled the fullscreen button on the itch page. So now there's a fullscreen button at the bottom right of the game, which should solve the issue. Enjoy!

Ah thanks for clarifying! I think that's an unfortunate combination of the itch.io website's metadata display, and the game jam having a long name. I can have a play with the game page header customisation to try and give it more space so the game jam link doesn't cover the game. Thanks again!

Edit: I just realised those links are sticky in the web page so the only other thing I can think of is allowing full screen. I'll see what I can do :)

Wow, short, simple, and fun! The perfect length for a game jam! I love the aesthetic and the smooth camera motion to match the "flowy" nature of the game. I don't know if it was intentional but there were some cool moments where I leapt to a new planet but didn't quite land, so I ended up freefalling through space, landing on what felt like a distant planet. Reuniting with my space friend was a nice little surprise at the end! Great work!

This was pretty spooky! I kept forgetting about the sentinel as I was too focused on the bear 🙈

This was really cool! Short and sweet - the perfect length for a game jam entry. I loved the music especially when it changed for the cloud section. The gameplay was so simple yet satisfying too. Congrats on the submission!

Great work on the game! I managed to complete it, and the ludicrous level 10 was worth the wait, a nice reward for getting that far! As the other commenters have said, it would have been great to either have the rockets move faster, or the enemy movement more predictable, to allow the player to line up a shot, as hits felt more due to chance rather than skill. But overall, nice job, I also liked the graphics and music!

Thanks for playing and thanks for the feedback! I'm interested in the overlay you mentioned - was it a bug with the game? A screenshot would be super helpful if you have time! 😄

Wow, what a cool game. I love the abstract aesthetic and system driven gameplay. It was quite frantic seeing the enemy numbers explode to a crazy scale, and trying to hold my ground! The only thing I'd change is that the click particles obscured the numbers so I couldn't tell whether my clicks were having the intended effect until the particles disappeared. But overall, a very compelling game as always! Great work!

A really nice, relaxing game. I like the introduction to the mechanics. I also really liked the anticipation of seeing what would emerge from the eggs - that was a good incentive to keep playing. Great work!

What a simple idea, polished and well-executed! The 4 way breakout mechanic was difficult to get used to! It might have just been me but the leaderboard wouldn't load. Great job on the submission!

This was fun! It was amusing to watch the cars crash and pile up on the road. It took me an embarrassing amount of tries before I realised you could jump 🙈 Great job on the submission!

Nice game!! I really liked the story aspect and the chilled vibe. Short and sweet, perfect for a game jam!

Awesome game, I had fun with this. Very chilled atmosphere which I liked. The camera was a bit weird at times but nothing game breaking. I liked the intro zoom into the planet when starting the game - it helped to set the scene. Nice work!

Nice work, it made me feel like a vulnerable little guy. The visuals are impressive. Great job!

This was awesome, I amassed a huge mob of bugs by circling around the camp fire. The animation and characters are incredible and really added a lot of charm. The death sequence made me laugh. Overall a lot of fun. Great work!

Great game, I love the mechanics! I encountered a UI layout and viewport sizing bug, possibly because I'm on a Mac or a high-DPI screen. I've attached a gif. Once I managed to work around that, I really enjoyed the game! Nice work!

Awesome game! I love the feature of making an upgrade permanent at the end of the run as it gives me an incentive to play again. The artwork and graphics look amazing - I love the background effect. Great job!

I really like this concept and it's clear a lot of work went into the systems and AI. I enjoyed the music and watching the critters run around when the simulation starts. Great job!

I love the mysterious vibe, from figuring out the mechanics (which are really clever by the way), to the unsettling background ambience. I've made it to level 16 so far but I'll definitely be coming back to this game to see if I can reach the end! Great job as always!

Congrats on the ranking 3rd! So simple but the presentation and polish is awesome. Well done!
