You and your alien buddy are stranded who knows where, and you don't even get cell service! Luckily, you've found a way to build an antenna so you can call a friend and get another ride to Xanthor's party!
Control your ship with the arrow keys, and use "space" to active the Grabbatron!
Cool game! Really liked the art and the SFX/music. Dialog was also well done.
The physics could use some tweaking though. Personally I would make the rope stiffer and let the rocks have some more momentum. (Now they pretty much fall straight to the ground even if your ship is moving fast)
I also think that creating triangles is a bit annoying since you have to move far and make two different ones. Maybe it would be an idea to let the humans create two triangles from one cube instead of one from a rock?
I got a little frustrated with the gameplay, but loved the story and the feel. Love that you can knock a mis-dropped block in with your ship! Also, the sound is great, and in 48hrs?! Great job.
Love the style here! The art, sound, music and characters are all really polished.
Flying the ship around was good fun too - took a while to get a hang of, but it felt pretty good when I did. Like a lot of unity games, it works with a controller too and just zooming around in the ship like that is good fun.
The actual gameplay itself is interesting, but gets a bit monotonous once you get the hang of it - I could see this get fleshed out by starting smaller, and bringing in more complications as time goes on.
@megadook Hey, how's it going! I really liked some of the crane-game mechanics of HyperMass, and it seemed like some of those ideas would be great for a physics-based building game! How's it going? Did you enter this year? :D

Still, overall good entry! :)
