you're in space

you're feeling lonely

if you really try, maybe you can find some friends

<3

no sounds, sorry

i don't wanna share my code, so submitting under jam! :)

i started the jam thinking getting stuck in orbit around planets would be a central theme, but that got away from me. oh well, that's how it goes! i had a great time during this jam!

I dig the animation as the cosmonaut spins around the gravity well

Amazing game! I understand that the player is in space, but I feel like if the astronaut had a little bit more control it would make the game a lot less frustrating when you get bounced between 5 different planets. Other than that though, great work!

Ah yes, I don't need a game to make me feel lonely xD still though, this was pretty fun and I had a laugh watching my little guy spin endlessly :P

Fantastic! The game felt really intuitive to me and the graphics/animations are just too cute! I love it! Nitpicking: I couldn't really read the conversations with the potential friends as I tried to skip them as fast as I could when flying by to "catch" them.

The movement felt great. I want to know what happens if you fill your spaceship with little dudes, but I didn't find the last one :(.

@c0nt oh no! i've heard reports that the last alien doesn't have an arrow, which is an unfortunate bug. it worked fine when i tested just now so i don't really know what to do about it.
if you find all of them (obviously spoilers here people!) you get to a level where you have 64 friends following you around in a long congaline, which is pretty fun! :D https://imgur.com/dSH2X1U.gif

really cute game, very polished too! the art style is really lovely.

the game mechanics are really nice, the oxygen thing adds a much needed difficult but without being too hard.

Cute game, awkward as hell aliens, visuals are very coherent, but gameplay definitely lacks. Also the theme wasn't very present. But still, well made!
