You weren't lying when you said it was completely different! Awesome game, really fun. I like how you embedded the audio on the page.

Nice entry, bro! +)
I think tutorial can be a little bit understandable.

romko_pidstryhach 2014-08-26 06:47

Cool mechanics. Very nice game, like it.

Very high quality game!
Radio communication sound has effective for mood.
I want information icon to know who is "Sender" , and UI text is recommend to stay camera relative static position for easy to see.

Delightful game. Very relaxing.

Very unique puzzle mechanic and good execution.

Very polished! I really like the camera zooming, although might be good for it to auto zoom at the start of a level (was a bit confused on a level before I realized I needed to zoom out to see the other planet!).

Also, the radio chatter audio was a neat idea and really helped the mood!

Really great game. Super unique and innovative. Difficult too, but I love the audio!

Such a sweet entry imo. Smooth gameplay, nice art, and the mechanics managed to be unique yet simple.

nice entry, i really enjoyed the concept as a puzzle game. great job!

Great game! Loved the mechanics, very innovative. I agree with the others comments, so I have nothing more to add. Well, the asteroids was so fun and hard. :)

Nice-looking game and a cool idea. I thought it was a bit frustrating that the packets started going immediately and couldn't be paused - I wanted some time to look around and figure out what was going on.

The game is very polished, I really like the mechanics. It could use a pause button and the music could just continue instead of restarting with the beginning of the level when resetting, but otherwise it's pretty much perfect. Love it.

It's like the part in independence day! Check mate! haha
Played really well, and I got quite in to it after a while.
Visuals suit the gameplay very well

jjhaggar 2014-08-27 09:53

Really original, I liked it a lot :)

larzan 2014-08-27 12:23

Beautifully serene, audio fits perfectly (but did you do the audio yourself, or is it more a JAM entry?)
Really great and enjoyable game!

Nice work, I loved the game mechanic, and the general atmosphere created by the dispatch messages and the music!

Love the parallax, dotted lines with transparency fade. The difficulty curve was nice and there are varying strategies.

You could teach about the data bouncing between satellites earlier. I was overwhelmed on the last level when it's getting destroyed.

The camera could start zoomed out or even make a transition from zoomed out to overview at the start.

this was a really amazing entry, loved the idea of the police scanner, and overall this game is pretty fun. Excellent job! :)

capsizedmoose 2014-08-28 08:37

Loved it! the mechanics + the ambient theme was really nice :D

omegavesko 2014-08-28 12:01

Hard as hell, and I love it. One of the best games I've played this LD.

atomicvikings 2014-08-28 13:35

Awesome game! My only complaint is that it needs a longer tutorial. The objective became clear to me in the last level. Other than that, very, very nicely done!

bradsmallplanet 2014-08-29 04:40

This is one of the most inventive ideas that I've seen thus far. Great job.

lkr 2014-08-31 16:55

Unique and fun game mechanic :)
Also loved the visuals and the moody and calm music.

papygaragos 2014-09-06 12:41

- Didn't realise I could zoom out at the beginning, so in one of the firsts level I thought I had to intercept signals from outerspace, and send back the others to the source
- Could be nice to pause the level at the beginning, just to have the time to evaluate the situation


Great job anyway, those are just little details

Man, this is why there's a "mood" category. So flippin' cool!
