loved the graphics and unique gameplay, the rotating camera idea in zero-g feels very fresh.

albeit the whole spaceship thematic feels like a bit of an antithesis to the old tech theme ngl

@mrpointlezz Thank you! My first idea was that the ship was broken down and you needed the gravity gun to fix it and navigate around the debris. Sorry that it doesn't come through. I got side-tracked by making shooting mechanics for fun.

It wasn't easy getting used to the camera, but it was still fun!

Good jam-game! There is some vibe here from Dead Space and Doom 2 for me :) Btw while playing when I've reached level with no light, I thought it was a bug (no colours, strange enemies like they're invisible and stil holding the gun), so I restarted the whole game. But in the end I understood that it wasn't a bug.

The tilted room and flat character sprites make an interesting combination in the screenshots. Rotating the camera in zero gravity sounds like a good way to make a familiar corridor feel unfamiliar. I was also curious about the original idea of repairing the ship with the gravity gun.

If you have a moment, I'd appreciate a rating on my latest game, [Robot Workshop](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/60/trashfight).

yeah I defs got Doom vibes. I really liked this, the 2.5D background and gun recoil do a great job of making you feel like you're moving in zero-G. Even turned to the minimum I still found the enemy attack sounds quite loud and harsh, though conversely the player's sounded good.

I found the spinning camera and the movement controls very disorientating, but once I got used to them I enjoyed the experience a lot. The environments look great, the combat is satisfying, and it has a great atmosphere.

Unusual gameplay with unusual mechanics. Everything works well, but it takes a few minutes to learn how to use the tool properly. The atmosphere is well crafted, with an interesting minimalist aesthetic. I love the ethereal background music. I felt like I was floating in space. Thank you for this interesting zero-gravity experience, and for your comment on my own game. I wish you all the best! ++
