You only have one chance at true love, she is there, waiting for you, and she is a pink metal space goat. She lost her rocket and you must save her! But you must not leave a mess (she really hates that), and thus must clear the path between you of any space-junk, (which, by the way, is toxic because it's in space, (duh)).. Otherwise she will leave you and break your shiny metal-heart.
Controls: Mouse - Choose One Arrows - Move around Ctrl/Space - Shoot
ESC - Don't press that one before you're asked to.
-- VMD and DST made it, we spent about 15 hours - But we were two people so it's in the Jam.... dude. :) It's written in C, using SDL and OpenGL, and a homebrew engine.
== UPDATE == Fixed the nme spawning on Windows, for some reason the method I used for generating random floats did not work there..
It was fun for a while but a bit short and repetitive. The enemies only spawned at the bottom of the screen so I barely had to move at all. I liked the particle effects though.
Really liked the game, but having to restart it every time you die was a bit frustrating especially considering how easy you die. Graphics were good though!
Great polish and graphics, and clearly a decent engine you got there. Hard at first, but you can easily cheat by constantly holding down the reverse button!
Haha, wheels in space. Guess there was a massive, intergalactic car crash^^ I giggled when I read the instructions. Do this? You die. Do that? you die!:P The game itself was quite fun to play, and the graphics were simple but effective. I like the idea of shutting down the game once the player fails. Nice entry man!

For those that have commented on the graphics, a big thank you from the guy behind the low-ish poly models. :D This was my first LD, but doubt it will be my last. :)
Nichii, it sure could ;) Most time was spent doing other stuff, like getting the engine to behave, asset loading and stuff done, also, we were exceptionally lazy this LD and pretty much canned the effort :D
With a slow computer, restarting the game every time I died got obnoxious very quickly. Otherwise, the game wasn't bad. Nothing mindblowing, but decent.
Thing is, that it is quite possible to compile for Windows and Linux using just a linux computer, but for whatever reason, there is no convenient way of building for OSX without actually using OSX.

Quite challenging game! Keep on doing cool stuff :D
Game is a bit short mechanics wise and very easy once you spot that they only spawn in one place on the screen.
Solid effort in my view.
Please take a bigger font size next time. ;)
Gameplay was OK but having to quit and restart the game on death gets frustrating fast.
