That moon is scary.

I think your download is too big. I've heard that there are a bunch of default textures and objects in UE4 that you should delete before you compile your game. Try that and reupload so people will be willing to download it. Will rate after the (current) 212MB download finishes.

Just read more about changing the download size. Check this out. https://forums.unrealengine.com/showthread.php?16134-Why-is-the-IPA-file-size-so-massive-for-small-games-when-UE4-exports-projects

Chrome marks the file as malicious and blocks it.

K thanks, repackaging atm.

k55 2014-08-26 01:06

Ok repackaged and saved...2 MB, turns out the base engine files use over 50MB, well, lesson learned, next time I'll compress more while devving.

Its okay just the controls are so hard that you cant really play it.

Nice concept! Really liked the gameplay mechanic.

Quite a neat little start to a game. So many times of jumping and just missing another planet! I really liked barely catching the lower side of a planet and crawling, well spinning, my way back up around and jumping again. Good times.

For chrome users, click dismiss on the malware message, hit ctrl-j then click restore

Very slow on my computer and kind of confusing. Great graphics though, that is undeniable.

Chrome marks the download as malicious and won't let me download the file.

dalbinblue 2014-08-26 02:03

Did you upload the smaller version? Both links are still over 200MB and marked as malicious.

Hey, Chrome blocks this! Try zipping it up with a password, then zipping the zip and password file. Not sure if it works with UE4, but it seemed to work with GameMaker.

rjhelms 2014-08-26 02:23

Very cool concept. Would love to see more of it!

vytheros 2014-08-26 09:20

Good game, I laughed at the sign at the end. Graphics were a bit intense, even on lowest mode but then again UE4 is pretty next-gen. Love it and hope more of it comes

k55 2014-08-26 13:23

Ok, repackaged it again, saved a few more MB, also hopefully the password protected download should stop chrome from throwing a fit. Pass is "LD2014"

Very pretty, though the lack of gravity around the worlds really saddened me (I'd love to be able to orbit around the planets before shooting myself around).
Other than that, very nice looking game, and surprisingly fun!

rojo 2014-08-27 08:54

Looked nice, and the gravity mechanic was pretty fun to play around with. Some music would have added a lot.

nerd-burglars 2014-08-27 22:48

If I was a dog, I'd howl! LOL Very cool first entry. Good luck :)

k55 2014-08-28 00:05

Some nice person made a music piece for the game! Please don't consider it for the review though, I think that's against the rules. Anyway, its nice, thanks again Joe!

I enjoyed, gravity goes as he pleases

depp 2014-09-01 07:24

Left-right controls are a bit finicky, but I like the concept.

ramiel 2014-09-08 18:51

Neat little game. I enjoyed the beautiful graphics.
