So much fun making this now time for sleep

Does not work for me, shows up only an orange screen, but music starts.

Sorry, no Java.

I could start it. The orange screen only seems to appear as long as the game is loading. Many participants use Java btw.

It's an interesting concept by the way :). Be a hamster on the moon :)

Fun little game. Who knew hamsters can survive on the moon?

Cool setting, the found the controls frustratingly slow though. Hard to get anything done.

Cool idea.. hamster simulator :D hehe

Controls could have done with some tweaking.. maybe an FOV adjustment. Left/Right went way too fast, up/down went way too slow.

Could have added shift to run/sprint .. took too long to cover ground.

I love the concept, hamster sim, I feel it would be a lot easier to control if the ground and pipes were textured. It was hard to tell how fast you were swinging the camera when everything was a solid color. I love the jump sounds. :P HAMSTER STYLE

Haha nice little game :) Now I know how it is to be a hamster ;D

Fun game. I managed to climb on top of the green piping, and when I got up there, I could launch myself super high in the air by walking on the geometry in a funny way.

The sound was incredibly annoying. I liked the map, but the number of collectibles was too large, movement too slow, and occasionally skippy.

Liked the fact that the theme actually affected the level design! One gripe is that the physics seemed a bit off, in terms of jumping through the pipes.

Hamsters in space? I like hamsters! I even made a hamster game this time!

Controls could be a little faster but interesting concept though (It was actually pretty fun exploring the world as a hamster).

Cool idea, bit weird gameplay but kind of fun! Nice job anyways! :D

Amusing idea. I wish the scale of the level was smaller, and the bgm loop longer and more varied.

Having java issues. Would like to play... could we get a demo video?

Please change the misleading "Web" label for a "Download". Thanks, good game!
