I could not load the webpage to play your game.

Really impressive stage layout! I got stuck a couple of times, but always managed to find a way out. Cool game :)

The platforming does feel a little rough, the moon thing is actually really neat. I enjoyed it overall!

Good game, I like the controls.

Hello, we will release an update fixing some jumping issues, fixing that the sun in level2 actually shoots and making the game overall more smooth, we didn't notice this while developing this gamemode, anyway if you got stuck somewhere and want to see our epic storylines filled with cutscenes (and an awesome boss Mars planet at the end that shoots lasers out of his eyes), tomorrow we will upload a new version. Michi already went to sleep and he has the files, that's the reason I can't upload a fixed version right now.
Thanks and have fun!

Not sure if it's a bug or I'm just playing the game wrongly, but my moon can't seem to press the second red button in the game, the one just after the two moving lifts.

stink123456 2014-08-26 03:32

@HundredHundred, that button is meant for the player. Sorry we need to add a different sprite for it.

The mechanics were good, the graphics were great, but the game felt shoehorned into the theme rather then being more central to the design.

Theme not with standing though this was actually quite fun.

Hey thanks for pointing out uploading problem, it would be awesome if you could check back :D.

P.S. Liked your game as well, nice puzzles, fun art. I must agree that the theme is not entirely visible in this one.

stink123456 2014-08-26 13:25

We fixed some bugs. First of all green buttons are green now and the sun actually will shoot at you. We just forgot to uncomment 1 line of code for activating the sun behaviour after the cutscene is finished.

Nice game!

disdanes 2014-08-26 15:15

Moon got stuck on the red switch in the 2nd level, couldn't get the moon out :( Nice entry though!

myougahiroshi 2014-08-26 15:27

Nice game, great story and I liked moon's spells so much :D

stink123456 2014-08-26 16:07

Moon got stuck? Think again. Its a puzzle platformer, there must be someway to get your moon back, right?

joshua_burr 2014-08-26 18:24

I couldn't get the web version or the osx version to work

william_edwards 2014-08-26 20:32

Certainly different world physics :)

I had real difficulty getting through the early levels, so either I'm super bad at this kind of physics or there's a glitch somewhere.

atsk 2014-08-26 22:52

Cool ideas for mechanics. Movement would do with a bit more polish though. Also when playing the web version right mouse button brings up a menu which is unfortunate.

konwlege 2014-08-27 11:07

It's pretty hard to use right click and some other controls are a bit of buggy.

stink123456 2014-08-27 11:19

Thank you for your feedback!
For the problem with rightclicking in the webplayer we recommend using fullscreen, then this menu doesnt appear on rightclick.

Neat concept with the moon following the cursor and the earth following normal platformer controls :)

The cutscenes add some nice variety to the levels, as do the cool moon powers.

hbocao 2014-08-28 04:46

Nice game! Fun and challenging! =D

atomicvikings 2014-08-28 19:32

Awesome game! my only complaint is that I couldn't get used to the physics. Controls are not as tight as I hoped. other than that! fantastic entry!

crefossus 2014-08-29 09:44

The movement needs a bit of work to feel better. Jumping can be frustrating.. consider allowing jumping while rolling? Movement feels sluggish.

I love the story line and especially the moon character during the cutscenes.

Some of the art is fairly pixelated in contrast to the smooth lightning bolts and polished planets.

Difficulty was a little intense and frustrating because I didn't feel in control.

sunflower 2014-08-30 11:45

It definitely could use more polish, but the planets are so completely adorable at times. Too bad I couldn't finish this level starting with trampolines because it was just so random, and Earth was so slow, and when I eventually managed to switch the lever it turned out I stopped at the wrong position or I just ended up landing right on the spiked balls. >.<

aflatminerstudios 2014-08-30 23:28

Neat!

jukimv1986 2014-09-02 05:02

Congrats on your first entry! The graphics were simple, but I was impressed at the mechanics you used, with the moon following the cursor, gravity and such. Very well done!

yodamaster 2014-09-02 10:44

Can't open the unpacked app.

jomomomo 2014-09-02 19:56

Couldn't get the game to start!

torvik88 2014-09-09 18:38

The game was pretty good. A little trouble with the mechanics once you are on the candelabras and the theme was way off but other than that this is a solid entry. Nice job! :)
