Very moody. Love the atmosphere, love the full window perspective embedded in a website. The sound design's great, overall very cool. Now, I didn't understand what I was supposed to be doing. I think perhaps I wasn't supposed to eat every scrap of metal on my satellite and feed it to my tether? Either way, I had fun bouncing around, catching scrap and playing with physics. Good game!
Was really drawn in by the graphics, particularly the main menu! Had a bit of trouble grasping the build system at first, but it's actually really intuitive once you get it, and I was able to signal home! Only part that seemed difficult to control was reaching pieces, but I also feel like that's intentional given the nature of the game.
@judjudson Thank you for your feedback and for trying our game! We realize it might be a bit difficult to understand what to do. I've now added a tutorial that guides you through the different actions that can be done in the game. Feel free to try it again and let us know if it is clearer now. Thank you again!
@mugenzerox Thank you so much for playing the game. Good job rebuilding the antenna! It sure is a bit difficult so gold star to you! :star2:
There's potential here, but I found it very difficult. Or maybe I just didn't get it right :sweat_smile: The sound, visuals, and overall environment are solid, though :thumbsup_tone2:
The graphics are great, I love the space theme. Music also fits well. The controls take a bit to get used to, I wish you could have even a bit of control over movement while in air.
Really atmospheric entry. We need more space games and this delivers. Seeing the planets and debris floating around. I like the video tutorial. That really helped to grasp the controls. Very rare to see that in a jam game. The controls and physics are very interesting to play with. The only thing I would say is it is quite difficult.
The game is quite difficult, but I find it very interesting. The controls are great and so is the feeling of being in space. I'm not sure about the video in the tutorial though - I didn't get what it tries to teach me😅.
Loved the concept, loved the building, I ended up getting 3 antenna parts and not realized I had to build it in a certain order. Good visuals, moving around wasn't too bad once you get used to it. Very good!
Such a nice atmosphere. I appreciate the smooth gameplay flow. The graphic and the style are stunning, very beautiful. Special notice for the nice sounds.
Just echoing what a lot of others have said, I loved the atmosphere, the music, and the overall theming. It all comes together really well.
I did have a hard time actually playing the game and understanding what I was supposed to do. Collecting debris felt frustrating at times, which made it harder to get into the flow of the game. I appreciate what you were going for with the video tutorial, but I’ll admit I didn’t fully follow everything it was explaining.
Was really impressed by the quality of the UI and the entire concept i know how annoying webGL can be. And if you don't count the start where i probably clipped during the introduction and my camera was stuck jittering it was pretty smooth. It was a bit confusing how to gather bloc
@unbugged Thanks for playing! Even if it was difficult :wink: We did try tuning it but perhaps its still a bit too hard.
@nullmoxy Thank you! Hopefully we can make our own audio in the future! We were planning a jet pack and have discussed throwing things to get momentum but sadly never got to implementing them. We wanted to go for a realistic feel to the out in space movement but maybe the gameplay could have been more fun with a bit less realism :smile:
@roitchie Great feedback, we'll have to spend some more time on tuning next time. Thank you!
@pojemnik Thank you for the feedback! We'll take that into account when we create similar tutorials in the future!
@prismapunch We appriciate that a lot! Thank you :smiley: We would have liked to extend the building part of the game more!
@sofia-shamshin Thank you for the kind words!
@beastpanda Great feedback, thank you! I have noticed that luck plays a part in how hard the game is, we'll have to test the game more in the future!
@herryfabien That's interesting I don't think we've seen that but before. Perhaps you were hit by some debris? Thank you for playing!
Wow, what a great idea! And the game's theme is excellent. As for the gameplay, I found it very difficult and things happen very quickly. The tutorial was quite helpful, but even so, I couldn't collect any floating objects :(
I used the "slingshot" mechanic, but I never hit the target, hahaha.
Technically very impressive! I found extending your tether too much made it way too difficult to control and easy to get knocked all over. Eventually I managed to build and tether my way to one piece, then I struggled for a while not being able to see any others... apparently at some point bouncing around I managed to collect them by accident? Not the most satisfying way to win, but I enjoyed this.
The premise is clever I really like it. The execution is very well done. Visually looks stunning. It took me a solid while until I realized that it is much easier, if you tether yourself to the middle of the structure. When I was jumping from the end, I could not control anything and just being kept slingshot in every way possible :D Solid entry, I admire boldness to do such physics for a jam game and it payed off :) One thing I would do is to extend hitbox a little, certainly for antena parts, as they are goal of the game. In this chaos it was a little disappointing to miss it by a bit :D

I feel like this represents the chaotic nature of 0 gravity very well. Very hard to control, you are being tossed around all over the place. Fun idea!
