Help Świętosław Ožbej Nic save his shoes and spread peanut butter!

Featuring:
* Spacebars
* Genies
* Nazi salesmen
* Unicorn-branded peanut butter
* Mouth-made sounds



Credits:
* Reuh: typing on keyboard, idea, making funny sounds, the boss fight at the end
* Ihampf: more typing on keyboard, more sounds, not doing a maze, but doing UI
* Trocentraisin: level design, music, arguing with the rest of the group for hours
* Céleste Granger: amazing graphics drawn on a tablet with not enough battery

Changelog:
* Fixed a crash when pressing two directional keys at the same time.
* Maybe fixed a crash which happens when the music loops and the planets are probably misaligned.

The macOS version was not tested.

The Linux file is a self-contained executable made using AppImage. Mark it executable and run it!

Ok, I must say, you guys really went all out with the humour! Sure did a good stretch on not "running out of space" xD gameplay is fun, art looks good, game works well. The end level screens and intro screens are visually actually very nice. Great job!

This game has some *very* extravagant writing. Nice work!

(who even voted for 'running out of space' anyway? I demand to see the numbers!)

Can't open in Linux Mint, can you help me with it! I wanna play your game.

@iokin Properties, permissions, check allow executing as a program; then you should be able to open the file

@trocentraisin Aww, sorry. I try now and it's running. It's good multi-level game. I really like it.
It's good humor for me. I trust that you really don't like Nic, who is it?)))) High rates for you.

Wow wow wow!
It's an amazing work due to the amount of time. I sadly couldn't finish the game (I've been stuck on boss phase3 and game crashes when I jump on him on phase1). But it's a really impressive. I'll try to finish it later.

Great job guys! You've made my day :D

@arche-san thanks, how do you get stuck at phase 3 (hint, this phase is really easy, I mean, easier than you think) and what happened when it crahed?

@trocentraisin Oh! I've got into phase3 once and it's weird but I tried to die. :p

When it crashed, game just froze and then window closed. It's not necessarily related to the boss: I've launched immediately another run and I've got the same crash against zombies just after my jump.

@arche-san Maybe you hit two directional keys at once, it systematically makes the game crash and it's a bug we couldn't fix. And yeah, in fact, it's easier than you think (I didn't design the boss, and I nearly got fooled)

So, I streamed this game and laughed my buttcheeks off during the gameplay! The use of the theme is probably the best I've ever seen as well. Very good job.

I just keep on wondering how did the brainstorming on theme look like... "Hey, we need to run out of space. Bar. Also peanut butter. Also zombies. Also genies. Okay?" "Yeah, sure, let's do it."

hilarious, very fun, wish the text in the "Story" bits didn't crowd the screen as much as they do

The graphics could use some more work, as well as reading all the text takes a lot of time, more than the actual gameplay, but once you get to its quite fun, the acceleration of the character could be increased.
found the machanic of putting numbers together to makea space bar very interesting, would like to see it polished better :)
