When hitting the sides, I get thrown back into the center of the screen.. Is that correct?
Psychedelic soundtrack... I agree.!

Well it was really easy to die when walls was deadly :)

If I had the chance to become a cat I wouldn't hesitate :)
One bug I noticed: when I died the first time, the player wasn't removed from the stage so there were two astronauts

Somehow can't get the score higher than 800 (Web version). Nice game anyhow, reminded me of Gravity movie ;)

The score stops going up after it reaches 800... I guess that means I set the top score.

New vision of falling down games.

hmm...I died a few times, but my old character did not disappear? or maybe because I kept pressing X because I didn't know what to do. Got a score of >3500, but several copies of me stayed in there

it was pretty fun but I didn't see what it had to do with the theme :/

I tried to get further to see if there was something to do with the Connected Worlds theme apart from the initial story text later on, but there was nothing. After a while the gameplay gets a little dull, maybe some pick-ups (coins etc..) could help make it more fun. Kittens were a nice touch though!

Well, a bit too simple/easy/boring, and there seems to be no 'winning'. But I liked the theme lot, and the music was awesome :)

Nice game :D A bit slow to get hard to play, but I became a kitten anyway Q_Q ahah nice work!

Pretty good for your first LD! Congrats on completing your game. I found the game too easy, personally. There weren't very many obstacles to avoid. Also, it would have been nice if the window were a bit bigger. I have a big monitor and the window the game played in was very small.

It was ok for a first try - good graphics and humor. Congratulations on having something finished! I hope next time you go for something a bit more ambitious, gameplay-wise.

Walls are supposed to be deadly?

Not much of a challenge, but still a functional game. I just steered into a piece of the space station pretty quickly, becoming a kitten was just too tempting :P.
