I am become Katamari Damacy, RULER OF THE GALAXY.
Lovely game, my best was 111 :D

Can't seem to move the character on OSX :/

Really cool idea! Kind of hard to controll but great work anyway.

menderleit 2016-04-18 11:34

This was pretty fun! Nice job. :)

I like the graphics. It would be cool if you could switch from planet to planet. good job though

great work. Nice level design

We love Katamari, and we love your game! <3

Looks really good IMO, nice concept, runs smoothly , even if it's seems a bit messy after some "collects" ( But that fact that you look ridiculous is fun)

Best score 71

Really nice game. Only frustration I had was I kept on picking items up in a way that made me more stick-like than ball-like, which made moving around a little tricky. Other than I really enjoyed it.

The idea is simple, and that is what made the game great.

Could help to sing to my left whilst playing. "La lalala la la la, laa la laa la laaa"

Anyway, I really enjoyed playing this. Took me 5 tries to get a size of 43! I was really impressed at my effort at first, then I looked at the comments.. Gonna save this for later and get a high-score!

Even though the 3d models are super simple, the graphics are really nice. The particles and fog add a lot to it.

Otherwise, interesting take on the theme!


The lyrics are from Katamari Damacy if you didn't get that, hah.

Thanks for all the great comments everyone!. I never played katamari before but i understand the main mechanics of it. Funny hearing everyone say the theme song from katamari haha.

Nice work, would be nice to be able to gain seconds by destroying some of your own parts.

przekop 2016-04-18 13:00

I wish i did think of something similar. :/

I became the largest object in the system. It is very fun. I really liked your game.
P.S. You have good trailer :)

vapeurteam 2016-04-19 10:24

I had trouble getting the hang of it at first but then it became very agreeable. Very Katamari like even though I rarely ended up looking like a ball

demane_f 2016-04-20 11:04

Really nice: a bit hard to control sometimes but great mood :P I use quite the same sticking system in my game too :)

yword 2016-04-21 15:09

Really cool and fun like Katamari Damacy! Well done!

knason 2016-04-24 18:35

This is amazing! :) I loved it. Really addictive, I played it for too long! Well done!

Linux version does not run on my machine. Just immediately exits after controller and resolution config

ohi12 2016-05-05 15:11

The game won't start on linux. Launched it from the terminal, no crashe logs or anything :p

Interesting game.Though I think it might be better to make target objects smaller, so the rolling could be more smooth.

avinashd 2016-05-09 00:14

Naa na na na na na na na Katamari Damacy!

The game fits perfectly within the theme and is a lot of fun to play! I would have preferred it if it weren't time based and encouraged exploration instead. And like the others pointed out, smaller objects or more diverse objects would have been better for smooth rolling.
