Overall really fun game, only feedback I really have for you is that it would have been nice would the controls not changed with rotation, I felt like I got a little lost halfway through. Apart from that really nice game.

The art style is amazing!
What a cool concept! I had fun flopping my tether around
I'm impressed that you've done all this work. It's nice, and pretty ! A little hard to get the controls in hand, but it's amazing !
Nice idea, i spent a very productive half hour playing :)
I tried to grap a rocket and... It works ! Youhou! Nice concept and an interesting use of the theme. Controls were good and the art cool (special reward for the "Godot Black Hole" :laughing: ) I had a lot of fun to grap some other ships.
Nice entry, thank you for your work! :smile:
@cloverfall I'm glad you had fun! We'll be keeping the controls thing in mind for future reworks, it seems a recurrent issue among some players... I recommend you try it with a controller, see if you like them better! @enad96 thanks! My favourite part is the background's parallax :) @cheesepencil Yess! The game is at its core about flopping around, target audience: reached! @flancon Thank you for your kind words, and for trying our game! It means a lot to us :smile: @frodob4884 that's what I wanted to hear, this weeks we'll all be very productive in the ways that matter (playing games!) @flying-butter-studio Yess! Rocket goes Wooosh! Again, target audience: reached! We'd used the Godot icon to mark the center of the universe and it felt wrong to delete it, so now it's the black hole at the center of the galaxy :heart: Thanks for playing!
Yo, pretty cool! Destroying stuff feels great. Real annoying that you had to be tethered down but I liked the challenge.
i LOVED THIS GAME SO MUCH! It's fun, very very well developed and creative. But I have to say: I felt like I'm a "micro virus-killer robot" on a organism more than a spaceship! Good work at all!
This was a fun entry! I liked the mechanic of hookshotting onto things. The joystick worked great for movement, but the triggers didn't work for me, mouse/keyboard controls were fine though. Overall great work, keep on making games!
I had a lot of fun with this one! art is cool and so is the slingshot mechanic. nice work!
This was a blast. once I figured out I could ride a rocket and let the minerals orbit me nearly forever, I was crusin the galaxy :sunglasses:

Fun resource gathering game :) Music was very nice, if a little short to be on repeat. I enjoyed the sound effects and graphics as well.
The controls were a little strange at first, but then I got used to them. I abandoned all keys except W and just used my mouse for steering.
It was cool to get on rockets and fly to different areas of the map, that was a neat idea!
Overall very cool entry for this jam. I hope you all had fun making it - maybe give my game a try, if you like. I'm a few votes away from 20 as well :3
Not sure if it fits the theme, but the game really cool. I was catched and played for 15 minutes or so. Nice idea and neat implementation.
I quite like the atmosphere of this game, pun intended. The music is nice and I do feel like I am on a mission. I like the tethering idea and the application of the theme. I didn't quite understand the controls at first, I still don't get why ASD were needed but I figured it out. Good job!
@steampowered85 Thanks! It was our interpretation of the "limited space" requirement, so we put the rockets to balance the "tethered" mechanic. @eliyud I love your interpretation, it could work as a spin off... *already thinking thoughts* @frozenfire92 if you want to, controller works fine on desktop versions, WASM export for some reason broke them, we're looking into it, but we're very glad you enjoyed it! @theparticularpixel :heart: Thanks for your kind words! We tried to do few things but as polished as possible, so we're happy it worked together ^_^ @dan-miller Hell yeah! Target audience: reached! @im-not-a-robot Wow you got to the end! Thanks a lot, and your feedback is both kind and useful! Using W + mouse is the most intuitive approach I'm looking forward to trying your game, the moment I saw you used Processing I got so hyped!!! But I'll save my fangirling for when I'm there :smirk: @brainles-etertainment thanks for playing! We "limited space" through the tether that ties the player to the stations and rockets, we're very happy you liked it and played it! @coatline Aww thanks! Now I'm jealous of that pun, 12/10 :laughing: Yeah the controls need a little tweaking, as I commented a few lines prior, W+mouse is the best way to play and ASD are pretty much useless; We're thinking on how to rework it. Thanks for your kind words!
The tether shooting from your rocket is a pretty cool concept.
I really enjoyed playing your game! Awesome work and very nice interpretation of the theme! Keep it up! :)
This game was an absolute blast! Using the tractor beam to mine for minerals was immensely satisfying.
The end screen with the minerals falling down was a great touch, it reminded me of the level up screen in Vampire Survivors.
The theme was brilliantly executed, I did not expect to play a game where I was spiderman in space haha.

Overall a fantastic game! :trophy:
the game is very interesting, I liked it, the idea is good, continue at the same pace and you will become more professional
Nice game! Took me a bit to find the last mineral, but got there eventually. I liked the faster rockets, was nice tagging along. :)
Cool game! Pretty satisfying laser/mining mechanic. Also tethering to things faster than you was pretty neat, felt like you could explore off of them a lot. Agree with the first couple of comments, the W key alone seemed like the best way to get your ship to behave the way you wanted with the way it was programmed. Took awhile but like everyone else I figured it out. Good job!
Great idea with tether mechanic! Your game has some common elements to mine :D
