Loved the physics! I know it's a simple space shooter, but seriously! I haven't relaxed and enjoyed a game this much in LD yet!

The soap bubbles were awesome :) Other graphics could be improved though, also enemies could be colored differently to not be confused with my own ship fire. It's quite annoying that there is no option to restart the game after dying. Sometimes I can even still continue playing after game over.

Other than that, I would love to play an improved version with more planets and more enemies, possibly of different kinds.

a linux build, please?

The idea is nice, but the execution has a number of problems..

The controls would probably work better if they were relative to the camera (w always goes up) rather than relative to the character (w goes forward). After you die you can still fire? And it seems like you can't move backwards and fire at the same time, not sure if that's on purpose, but combined with the control style, it makes it trickier to evade and fight enemies who are coming too close if you didn't manage to kill them at a range.

After closed the page, Firefox' plugin container crashed, and that's probably not good.. Maybe it was just a coincidence, but it's never with any other Unity web player game.

Needs a way to restart too.

I liked that you're flying around in a boat in space though, and that you have soap bubbles coming out of it.

I liked the ship graphics, but the enemy ships were a bit hard to see sometimes. I think an easy change that would make the game a lot more playable is to add some kind of radar/minimap.

very nice game, the flying parts were so epic :D especially the music and the bubbles

Physics is so lovely! Very simple game, but extremely enjoyable! Good job on this one.

Fun! Love the bubbles and the space 'ship' (and the font!) :D

liquidminduk 2014-08-28 09:36

very bizarre character design!

This is pretty fun! Liked the sound and gameplay was good as well. The bubbles were good.

Fun little game, enjoyed it! If I had to point out one thing that I didn't like it would be the controls, when I was on a planet I felt like the controls were becoming muddled up. It might have just been me, but due to the spherical based movement it really felt like it was going the wrong way at times, I'm not 100% sure though! Other than that, great sub!

Good job, fun game! Music was cool plus gameplay was fun but the controls seemed a little odd at first.

Hiya, the concept here was pretty cool, but why make W move forward relative to player rotation and not to the camera? (i.e, w moves up even if you're facing right).

I liked the overall aesthetic but think it needs a bit more variation. Pretty cool entry overall! Good job.

Really enjoyed running around on the planets and found the boat in space powered by bubbles particularly charming!

Funny graphics. Although not very clear what to do. The into should be skippable

Getting little bunny space dudes to navigate global terrain ain't easy! :) Impressive work for a jam.

I think I recognize the font from somewhere... ;) First time I played the red things did a "what is love" on me XD Nice fun quirky game. May the force be with you!
