BUG REPORT: SCREEN IS RED AFTER CERTAIN POINT IN SATURN FIGHT AND IS STILL RED WHEN I DIE
You should probably allow people to go a different direction to add more variety to movement :D
Dope game! It was pretty fun and simple, I liked the art and different planets as bosses. I think it would be cool to see other attacks that are somewhat related to the planets, like the Saturn ones. I'm also making a bullet hell esq boss rush game called Shmooblin Blaster (not for the game jam) so if you want to check it out and let me know what you think, I'd appreciate it! Cool game!
this looks really great so far!! i was going to say something about maybe adding a circle on the outside of the planets demonstrating the track that the player is on because I was having trouble guessing where I would be before an attack struck, but i got better as i continued to play, so i guess it was a skill issue lol. maybe consider adding that as an "easy" mode?
either way, great work and looking forward to seeing the next bosses!
Great job, you made a really fun game that's so simple to understand and a great level of difficulty. Musics cool, themes cool. Wish I'd stumbled upon it later as would have enjoyed more bosses as only 2 are made at the moment of writing!
Thank you so much! To be honest I've been working on it quite a lot, I'm hoping to get another update out today my time (It's mid day rn).
I didn't make the music, so if you want to listen check the credits section in the description or the comment below! Have a great day! :)
That was awesome! Simple mechanics but makes for a very interesting game, esp with the art and music. Looking forward to more!
Thank you so much! The music was not made by us but glad you enjoyed it! Here's the links to the music packs I used if you want to listen to them!

I never complete games until its enjoyable, this one was...
Thanks so much!
Yae, youre right plus the art it was perfect (for a Boss fight not like a real game)
Solar Homicide would make more sense
One of the best early access game i've been able to play, loved being an early tester much hope for the future of this game jam, also inside joke i brought Brad to check it out
Yay! We love brad! May be a little biased since you are my friend but thanks for the feedback anyway! Hope you're having a good day bro :)
I am very biased but it is a really good game though (if you don't put me in the credits I'm going to kamikaze you) ❤️
Haha, I'll see what I can do.
Your game has about 600% less bullets than mine but it is way harder. It's a lot of fun and look forward to seeing more.![]()
:D
Haha, Thanks, glad you're enjoying it! Excited to see how yours is after it's been fleshed out! :)
