Well that was cute :D,
Pretty good art, and a good sense of humor are this game's strengths. It could have used music, to help make the mood stronger before the conclusion.
Congrats on your game!

Congrats on your game!
Very charming little thing, but given you can only move towards Earth with no variance outside of that small starting area, it ends up as mostly a couple planet jokes back to back and that's all. While the story was about sacrifice, you didn't have the option yo not be sacrificed or to evade the missile or have any real choice, so the theme is a bit weak. The art is very pleasant and agreed that some simple music may have helped fill in some of the empty space.
That was a perfect example of a good Ludum Dare game. Short, sweet and cute.
I wish it was a couple minutes longer!
Fun game for 1 button control. You did it!
hahaha love the story and the ending. Congrats on the entry!
Great writing and terrific pixel art, Jupiter especially. Nice work.
Could use a little music but the writing is pretty funny. Also best ending possible.
Beautiful art, and humor to boot. I love the storytelling aspect which contrasts most other compos.
I like the simple art
Really cute bitsy game, gave me some good laughs !
Woah I like the art! N I C E
wow, this is neat. love the art and the mood of an antiquity epic about gods and titans.
Unique idea, even if there's not much to do other than move...
Making a good game in Bitsy is about as tough as it gets, but you came up with something that works really well. PLayed it all the way through and was genuinely hooked! Great job!
Amazing game ! The writing is excellent, and this 1-bit rendition of the solar system is reaally pretty (I especially liked Ceres, Hygiea and Jupiter). Congrats !
awesome colors and drawing, really loved the way some planets animated only when talking to you, I love these bitsy tricks. =)
I guess, it was inspired by "Undertale" or smth like this. If it's not, let me know. Anyway, simple and handsome art. Well-done!
It's an interesting idea and aesthetic (reminds my a bit of ZX Spectrum), but the lack of any choice, especially with such a heavy story hurt it a little bit. It's a good joke, but the super seriousness of your character to the silliness of the other planets is a little too jarring between. Some middle ground would serve the game better.
Great to see another Bitsy in this jam. I enjoyed the narrative & the fun twist. :)
