It's a very decent, creative game. :) I would LOVE to see a fully made, steam release of this. :D

The camera lagging behind you got annoying very quickly. The game could also have benefited from a slightly faster pace. Love the graphics and presentation, although the cursor appeared as a black box for me.

Looks great and fun idea! Wish the planets would keep being generated, I hit the "edge" of the universe and then wouldn't be able to go back where the planets are because I ate them all.

I love this graphics. looks cool.
Survived for 38 seconds. At some point stuck at the loop of non-profitable points with no escape because random generator hates me =)

Lasted 188 seconds. Easy control and easy to play. Fun game, great work!

Brilliant!! sorry you couldnt play mine on your mac. will work on that for the next LD, great job!

Liked the game.
Lasted 181 seconds. Then the screen was empty and my monster drifted offscreen.

Really liked the art-style.
Didn't like so much, that the game is entirely luck based. And there was a tiny knack in the sound when starting to eat, but that's nitpicking.

Fist thing that caught my eye was the graphics. The simple, yet adorable artstyle was perfect for the competion. The audio was also great as the music was ambient and fit the environment. However, the game felt unfinished due to things like the cursor being a black box, for example. The gameplay also felt a bit unbalanced as the randomization often screwed me over (the worst case being stuck with no planets on screen and dying due to not being able to move). Overall a decent game, with an awesome presentation.

Always good to see hand drawn graphics. Still trying to figure out more about gameplay. Either way, gj for finishing it in 8 hours!

rob 2015-08-24 11:39

The game was absolutely not self-explanatory! So, thankyou for including those instructions :)

I liked your hand-drawn art. Really nice.

You win best title screen. Love the art and music.

gigaraptor 2015-08-24 19:34

Nice graphics, and simple to play. Great job!

leom 2015-08-24 20:59

Nice job for only 8 hours.
With a bit more of work it could fast become very addictive !

I get an error that says "failed to download data file" when I try to play the web version.

crefossus 2015-08-27 09:18

nice mood and interesting gameplay idea. once you find the dominate strategy it got a little repetitive but it's still a strong entry.

bodsey 2015-08-27 17:20

Thank you all for the kind comments :) @KevinWorkman I had this error also with another entry, I think it's linked with hosting on Dropbox, you can try again another time if you happen to see this comment :)

Pretty interesting. It was a little confusing on how to play though.

galvesmash 2015-08-29 07:07

Cute and creative game! Loved the graphics.

voidstar33 2015-08-29 07:24

Very creative. Wonderful job.

onionblitz 2015-08-29 07:32

Oh wow, I love this concept! I didn't know what to do at first, but once I got the hang of it, I had lots of fun. I'm sure this would turn into a great game if you decide to polish it up more. :D

robonebula 2015-08-29 08:09

i really like the art style, really fun to play!

freaknarf 2015-08-29 08:10

Good little game :) I was a bit confuse with gameplay at first but it came clear quickly. I really loved handmade visuals, good style and it was well integrated. That was a bit frustrating sometimes to be stuck in empty places ; even if it's part of the gameplay ("arg why did i ate this planet!"), maybe just adding a slow move could make it more dynamic than waiting to die totally stuck :] Menu song was funny also

tsn_rampage 2015-08-29 08:17

I really liked this! A little challenging to figure out at first, but fun once I got the hang of it. Only problem was that there are points where there are no other planets on the screen forcing the game to end. Maybe add a bunch of smaller planets that deal damage sprinkled in so you can use those to jump around quickly.

dregamr 2015-08-29 08:30

It makes poo...I love it!!
Nice graphics and sound. :)

beardybard 2015-08-29 09:54

I like this style. Graphics very creative. But the camera lagging behind you.

boskosokolov 2015-08-29 11:20

Fun little game, i really liked the graphics and the audio. Nice entry

wdebowicz 2015-08-29 11:25

77 seconds! I like the paper style and gameplay. It would be nice if camera would jump faster.

bigbuggames 2015-08-29 12:11

Really creative game. Nice graphics!

gfm 2015-08-29 13:24

Really cute game! Being able to move the camera, even if only a little, would have helped quite a lot...

boywithstick 2015-08-29 13:56

Love the scanned cutout artwork. I was almost going to do the same with my game. The cursor was a black box for me, but did not hinder my ability to play. Just a slightly ugly blemish in the graphic style. Fun little game. Would like to see more depth to the game over time, somehow.

el_cabaro 2015-08-30 00:42

This game has a nice art style. My friend and i also used a paper style actually. The game Is interesting and different. Not bad.

anglerteamgames 2015-09-10 17:48

Really like the graphics and gameplay, but got stuck in a dead-end trap of red planets!

gertjohnny 2015-09-13 03:31

87 seconds. Nice work! I really liked the art style. I did get owned by the RNG the first couple of playthroughs though, nonstop red planets. Because I never actually saw any green I couldn't really figure out how to play until the second round.

bodsey 2015-09-13 12:17

@GertJohnny thanks for the feedback, RNG is definitely the first thing I'll tweak if I make a post-mortem version!
