I really liked this one - nice consistent art style, simple mechanic, good use of the theme, etc. For some reason though my brain kept going the wrong way. I think it was because I associated pressing right with rotating clockwise, but I was actually controlling the alien walking rather than the planet's rotation.
Thanks for the comment! And yeah I struggled with that because it would definitely be more intuitive to do it reverse like you suggested, but aesthetically it looks nicer for the alien to be walking forwards around the planet.
It was rather confusing what you should do, and there wasn't much to do once it was figured out. It's an amusing little toy, but becomes uninteresting once figured out. I didn't have audio, but the graphics were consistent and it certainly fit with the theme. It was also easy to get into, but like I said, didn't hold attention for very long.
wow this was good. first entry I've been able to play all the way through til winning! At first I thought it just didn't end and was some zen riddle and then I realize I had neglected one island which I raised up to its full glory. Totally dug it.
This was a lot of fun! Very simple, yet still fun. It was a very satisfying feeling when two shots or so lined up in a row without having ro rotate the world haha
I didnt realise it could be finished until i read the comments :)
very nice simple idea - yet challenging
good game - the audio and graphics are solid as well
Very, very good. Simple but original mechanics, easy to start but difficult to win. Good graphics. Liked a lot.
A simple and nice game!
Lovelely! the music fits quite well.
Cool idea, it got really difficult for me, but I like it.
