Amazing idea, and so much content for a gamejam! Really polished. Maybe include a mechanic that rewards a player for not sending all their troops into battle, maybe they only get half of the alive ones back or something.
Graphics are INCREDIBLE and the mood created is moving. Amazing game but I agree with others in that it would be so much better if it was a bit longer.
Absolutely beautiful! The mood was incredible and the way you based the entire game around the theme was genius. The one thing that would improve it is less camera wobble when jumping. I know this is meant to enhance the mood but I found it hindered me a lot when judging jumps. Overall an incredible game and, with a bit of polishing, could very happily end up on Steam!
Graphics are funny, I'm not sure where the theme comes in!
Great idea! Awesome graphics and music, would be made better if you fixed the suicidal NPCs jumping into the pit and killing the player.
I love it! It's cute and a great idea for the theme! I think that an overhead camera would've worked better as I quite often got shot from behind and didn't know what was hitting me. I like the little tutorial area, it really helps introduce you rather than throwing you in.
The buggy movement made it hard to play but I love the idea and the graphics are wonderful!
Great idea, the music creates an amazing mood and the story is moving! I think that the difficulty curve could've been a little smoother as near the start it wasn't that intense and then it got much more difficult. I think a gradual increase in asteroids could work.
Great mechanics and I love the way you incorporated the theme, would be so much better if a background was added to give a sense of movement!

The Loop by thesnide 2020-10-15T14:51:14Z ♥ 1
Fun game, and I managed to win! In contrast to other comments, I think that the difficulty was spot-on and I love the aesthetic. I think a whole game could easily be built on this idea of the player being on a circle!
Stuck in An Egg by Demuss 2020-10-15T14:43:11Z ♥ 4
A very fun game! I love the discovery aspect and the game just kept surprising. Overall, a very fun game! However there are 2 points of improvement I think should be made:
1. The camera controls felt like a drunk wrestling match, either make the boundary where the camera starts to adjust wayyy further out or make separate camera controls to the mouse.
2. I think the game would benefit from having proper physics. Maybe it's just me but I felt that the movement of the egg was just too weird, as it followed a simple set path?
Having said that, this game has incredible polish and overall lovely graphics and simplistic yet satisfying sound design. Have a thumbs up from me!

Cool idea! And awesome execution!! I was blown away by the quality of the icons, the intro sequence, pretty much everything. I think it goes without saying that the theme wasn't very apparent and the 2 nodes were not very exciting. However, having said that, taking this as a concept rather than a game, it is a brilliant idea and, as the previous comment said, implementing little minigames Undertale style could make it a really cool game!
For-Ever by freso 2020-10-06T16:57:58Z ♥ 5
A brilliant idea for a concept, and the for-loop mechanics were very well executed. However, I felt that the platformer physics were a bit slippery and too tight (a bit more air time maybe?). Also, with all the interesting new mechanics you made, there was little explanation. It felt a bit frustrating on the second level when I just couldn't make the jump. And then I assumed the red square was damaging because when I tried to collect it, I hit the spike. Having said that, it was a clean game with good graphics and a very innovative take on the theme, I personally didn't think anyone would pull off for-loops for their game, but you did! 4 stars innovation, 4.5 stars theme
