This reminded me a lot of Solar Jetman (NES game). Nice colors and atmosphere!

very interesting. I like the music, gave it an almost ominous feel. the sounds were really good.

Heya, it was all black when I tried to play. Maybe a bug?

Great job on the game! Loved the lighting and particle effects, as well as the change in the background color. Overall the game was really just peaceful and exploring, and the music really set the audio. The control was a little weird and difficult at times. Good job!

Missing a bit of the gameplay elements.. maybe make the walls/edges dangerous, and give some use to picking up the cubes :) but it feels very relaxing to fly around!

Nice visuals. Controls were hard to figure out at first, but then I found a scheme that worked well.
it would be nice if the game had a goal and were more lengthy.

Very nice graphics and mood. However the gameplay lacks innovation and was quite boring.
Same concept would have been more interesting if it transported some sort of story.

Hi!

My humble cents:
- Great atmosphere, you know it. Sound, ambient. All nailed up (game jam wisely)
- While the "ball and chain" with a motor mechanic is quite fustrating, it's an interesting new way to think about movement and how physics can affect it, so while i think it was not really implemented in a way that made any sense during gameplay, it was a nice idea and could easily be used under different circumstances.

The game came out without much of a objective, but you've created something that will certainly inspire other devs here and, hopefully, yourself. Nice job :)

Like piloting a drunken jellyfish? Short, but the colors and sounds are very pleasing. Kind of calming.
