Hopping For More is a Space Platformer !
You always dreamt of being an astronaut ? Now is the time !

Did I mention that you are stranded with only your jetpack on the remains of a long abandonned Science Station turned into asteroïds ?
Mah. Details.

[Advice : Play in Full Screen. Thanks.]
Controls : arrows or WASD to move, F to use, Space to skip dialogues, L to toggle the Log tab, I to toggle the inventory;

made for the Ludum Dare 42

Although at first I didn't get it, the game turned out to be fun and pleasant. I liked it

Hey guys, great job on your game! I really enjoyed the jetpack mechanic you had it was very fun haha. I think the movement needs a bit of tweaking because I think the astronaut's acceleration and max velocity may be a bit too high and his inertia is pretty crazy as well. Other than the movement being pretty tough I thought that this was a great game you guys!

Awesome gravity mechanic! Was a bit clunky for me at first but was pretty awesome after I got the hang of it. I eventually gave up before finishing the game though (wasn't entirely sure about where to create concrete, I think I turned all the stones into glass...)

Nice entry.

Like @seannewman22 said. If you "sling shot" off of a planet the speed is so high you can barely stop.
The sounds and music are awesome. Really loved it.

Took me a while to get the hang of it but it was enjoyable.

I always had a feeling that beyond the edge of known space was just a Photoshop grid. Vindicated. Who's crazy now, society!?

Nice game !
Pretty tricky to move with gravity but now I now how to control a jetpack ;)
And now, how we could look starts if there is no space ?

Great game, reminds me a bit of Space Engineers. I found a floating car near the bottom, is that an easter egg?
