The game

"... and then, the crew of the spaceship suddenly realized that a thousand of asteroids where just there, ready to kill them all. Their only hope ? Make their way through the wrath of the asteroids charge as soon as possible. Their last chance to survive were to find the energy of the lights of the universe to trigger the speedlight traveling system."

Welcome to the universe of my last game ! Will you manage to drive such a fast spaceship ? ;-)

Nice Game! I needed 4 tries to get a full blue bar. It would be nice, if the horizontal movement also gets faster when your speed increases. Or a nother opportunity would be to increase the FOV, because in the end you need luck that there comes a "cloud of enery" and not an astroid

Windows zip just contains assets and bin folders, no actual game.

Overall the game is good, the audio is nice and i like how the game looks when it get's faster and faster. The game is not very innovative or very interesting to play for longer than once in my opinion.

But for the current theme and Jam this is not bad.

Good Job. Keep it up!

I liked the music, it really made the game so much more intense. Really a great interpretation of the theme. Nice job!

Music and usage of the theme were solid! The game got pretty trippy with a filled-up blue bar. The movement was a little funky - you accelerate over time but stop instantly - seems like you should have gone all one way or the other.
