Really novel and fun little game. I think I got by the lightning section by luck more than anything, but the final lv 11 was a really good test of your execution. Being able to run through the levels as a normal platformer at the end was cute. Is the ??? level in the select after 11 just the normal platforming stage or was that something hidden in some way?
I liked this one a lot. Good vibe with the graphics and a reasonably unique gameplay mechanic of taking over the thing that you shoot. Only two criticisms I have is that I wish your mouse cursor was visible because I kept accidentally clicking on other parts of the browser, and I wish that the final node in each part was a boss sorta thing with a lot of skulls surrounding it, even after you took over the rest of the system, just so the last shot was actually challenging. It was fun though, and you nailed the theme and the aesthetics.
Nice and fun. I liked the shapes of the space sections and the different ships. Combat was fast paced enough to be fun but gave you enough health to not get annihilated. Nice 5-10 minute experience.
I played a bit of this. The art was cute, and I was having fun exploring, but I couldn't figure out how to activate the buttons. Pressing e made an animation with her hands, but didn't do anything to the buttons. And when I activated the map, I had to press buttons randomly to figure out which one took you back to the main screen. The cat eyes never did anything to me but eventually I walked off the edge and fell forever with out a chance to restart.
Enjoyable game with a really good scope. I will say that I found the controls a little off instinctually. Because the rocket takes time to rotate my mind kept wanting me to use a and d to rotate and w to move forward, and so I would crash because my mind would do the wrong inputs. Usually rocket games that have the direction inputs like this one don't have the turn time. I will also say that I found the time upgrade to not be very useful because it was usually a matter of either dying or getting all of the asteroids with 15+ seconds remaining, so I would have preferred to have an upgrade that gave you more asteroids, or let you plant more than one bomb at a time. Regardless, I had fun, and congrats on your first jam!
I liked the controls and the physics, and the gameplay loop feels solid. I'll echo what the other reviewers said as well though, that I think crashing too hard being an instant game over feels a bit rough especially after you have already played a planet or two. Since you have health already for the missiles, it feels like a bad landing harming you instead of killing you would feel less rough. Otherwise a fun game.
Enjoyed the experience. I liked the fact that the echolocation signals for the bags and the fish were close enough to each other that you had to pay attention, and that the health bar seemed right on the edge of failure for most of the game, making you really feel like you needed to constantly get more fish, without the ability to stock up much at all. Nice short experience and the echolocation graphics in particular were quite nice.
The jackelope was cute. I liked the atmosphere of the game. It felt like the hitbox for the monsters ought to have been bigger because it was easy to visually hit them with the arrow, but have it not hurt them.
I liked this a ton. Just the right length for the complexity of the game. The typing felt superb, the sound feedback from the key presses made you feel like you were using some old machine. Thanks for making this!
I had fun with the game, though I didn't end up really understanding the pzazz mechanic. The spiders ran at me instead of the other ants, so I could just kite backwards and kill them with the fireballs, without ever needing to command the other ants at all. Maybe I missed something, but I did get the three starter ants back home and killed a lot of spiders.
Fun! Difficulty ramps up pretty fast after the first bit. I liked the sounds of all the different boats, but I wish I had gotten a bit more time learning about each type before they were all arriving at once.
I enjoyed this one a lot. Didn't realize I'd been playing for half an hour by the time I finished everything. I wish there was a way to turn the upgrade stars off if you don't need them because its annoying to see the "wrong number" pop up when you are just trying to path through them and already have that number increase.
Very cute and fun. I didn't quite understand why I died in water sometimes and other times could swim as long as I wanted, but it was a nice quick platformer with really nice sprites and solid gameplay.
Really nice aesthetic. Nice to have a clicker game you can actually finish in not too long. Loved the scale of the people getting smaller as the tower got bigger.
Like the guy above, I also got stuck on lv 14. I also started noticing lag as I played longer, but that could be because I was using my browser and its not optimized for that.
Cute game. Was there anything special to do with the beachball in the back or was that just to toss around? I tried to feed it to the shark but it just went through them.

I liked the panning effect with the planets and the game did a good job with atmosphere. Seems like a good skeleton for a bigger game.

I like the concept of navigating with echolocation. The game was very short, but it was fun for its little bit of time.
