I like the humor and the graphics & sound are amazing, but for the life of me I can't control the bike at all. I just fly off into space and can't get to where I want to go. I tried various WASD and holding shift as indicated but I seem to only go up, never forward?
Fun theme and music. The controls are very floaty and hard to use, but I suppose that's intentional. The aussie stuff is ridiculous but fun. It's not a very close adherence to the "harvest" theme.
with a bit of polish this could be heaps fun. always appretiate games not taking themselves too seriously.
The music and artwork establish a very interesting atmosphere. It's unsettling, but in an interesting way. I like the gravity in the game and it was fun to walk around and interact with things. I was not able to mount anything though

@merin-car-trunk-key Glad you liked it, we were aiming for that vibe so this is a nice comment to read! There is a bike near the start location that you can ride to other planets in.

Funny game, dig the music and planet graphics. Felt like a drunken aussie with these controls lol.
Funny game, only issue I had was figuring out which direction I was going when I was off the planet
I was inside a kangaroo!
Playing this game will make you fail 9 of the 14 commercially-available drug tests currently on the market

I played this game and now I am an expert in Australia
Love the Australian wibe and jokes, excellent animations and voice acting! Controls are a bit janky and couldn't really figure out how to jump and move around in space. Very funny!
I'm an Australian and this is exactly what it's like living in Australia.

What a deliciously janky experience, impressed the planetoid stuff works (I think?) "Good thing Australians don't take fall damage" got me.

Really goofy game, gives me similar vibes to cruelty squad (i mean that in a positive way :D), as a fellow Australian I felt right at home! My only real struggle with the game was that I found it was quite easy to get the bike up to speeds I couldn't really recover from so I had to restart several times. Other than that though I quite enjoyed it, well done!

The movement in this game is exactly how I move in my dreams, arms and legs flailing and flying into the sun xD Met a friendly roo with a blade, turned around and was killed by a car. A right fever dream to be sure. Nice Job ^~^ oi.PNG
Of all the things I was expecting to see this jam, Australian Outer Wilds was definitely not one of them.... Very surreal and humorous. I'm definitely impressed with how this was pulled off in 72 hours. I was able to beat the game, the only trouble I had was figuring out how to fly the motorcycle. The directions the keys move you just seemed to not line up with where they should be sometimes. Overall very funny and bizarre.

I have to say out of all the features I appreciate the restart button the most. I took a good 20 tries, but I finally got a little bit tipsy with the 20 beers. I'm not going to list out the issues, because I think fixing them would actually ruin the experience. I salute the creativity, great game :100:
