A tense futuristic puzzle game where you'll have to collect as many stars as you can before getting buzzed by Harvey the Robot!
Click on a room to move to it if a path to it exist (with doorways aligned). If such a path exists between you and Harvey, he will start moving towards you! Be careful!
Rotate your spaceship to remove a random room from the bottom row, and add a new one on the top. Neither you nor the robot can be dropped off the ship though! Use this to open path to new stars, and cut off the path between you and Harvey the Robot. How long can you survive?
Controls --------
Left click : Move to another room Arrows or Mouse drag : Rotate the spaceship Escape : Unceremoniously quit the game :p
SCORE TO BEAT: Bastien - 106 Can you do better?

I liked the art and the audio! The rooms falling random was a bit confusing - I thought maybe I could kill the robot that way. Click to move sometimes would make me run into the robot. Overall pretty polished though!
@aeveis: Yes, killing the robot was envisioned at some point, but you know how jam go... ^^ And the pathfinding is supposed to make you avoid the robot, but sometimes it does make you run into it. Thanks for the kind words though!
I love the graphics and animation! I can't quite wrap my head around the gameplay, though. Is it just sort of gamble as to which column goes? Is it ever possible to make the robot or yourself fall out? (Morbid curiosity.) Good work, though!
A really great concept that needs just a few tweaks to work. It would be nice to have an indication of which room will drop next, or even a way to choose it. Great style and innovation though. :)
Took me some time to really understand what I was doing but after that it is cool. The idea is interresting, it's beautiful and the audio feels good. Good game!
(Bastien again) @all: Thanks for the kind words! The fact that a random room drops after each rotation is a bit confusing, that is true. And no, neither you nor the robot can be pushed off the ship in that way. We had planned to let you drop the robot to get some respite before a new one would come in, but no time to do that...
And an indication of the column that is about to be dropped would indeed be good, but again, lack of time :( Thanks again for playing it, though! :)
Fantastic atmospheric audio, immersive action-puzzle gameplay, nice graphics! What else can we ask for? Running away from Harvey the Robot is fun, thanks!
I liked the panic I felt when Harvey kept moving closer and the rooms didn't slide the way I wanted :) A solid puzzle game with a nice mechanic! However, the difficulty seemed a bit low. I might have liked a slightly more challenging gameplay.
@vidarn: We've got some ideas to get this more interesting :)
@Teesquared: You have to keep trying! :D The first time around it's not that easy but when you get into it, it's possible to have quite a high score! Bastien is the holder of the title right now with 106 points ;)
Nice game, but couldn't you play infinitely by just spamming left/right until robot falls out of your reach, collecting all available stars and repeating it all again?
@all : Thanks! But yes, it lacks a bit of strategy, and the difficulty is not really high, and the game is kinda easily exploitable :) Now it's fun for a game or two at most. But thanks for the kind words and taking the time to play!

Nice work on the graphics, and original design though :)
Anyway great job, I really enjoyed it. :D
@all: Thanks once again for the feedback :D
@Taldius: That board game was actually our starting point when discussing what we wanted to go with ;)
@asobitech Thanks! We'll try to make the commands more clear ;)
@5you really? XD Now that's a coincidence! We'll have to check out yours as well!
