very nice vibes, found a fun bug, if you time it just right, you can move a guest just as they stat to leave, they will then walk into the void.

Its a really nice game!
The Hotel stars are hard to read as you dont have a reference to when you have 20.
I like the difficulty, its really smart!
Its a nice management game and I enjoyed it!

Really nice game, it gets super tense in the later stages when you have lots of guests and different colors. I wish the characters' hitboxes were just a bit larger so that I could more easily see their likes/dislikes when hovering (maybe a fullscreen option would've also helped?).

Did manage to clear the game on my 2nd try and it was fun! Congrats on submission!

Throwing aliens away for 5 minutes straight, really nice game, simple and solid idea, would throw them to void again.

Our star rating is OFF THE CHART!

Stupid puns aside, well-executed space theme always hits a soft spot in my heart. Great job!

Throwing out those annoying peeps feels great no matter where it is :P

Cool idea! Wasn't really obvious in the beginning how "compatible" people are or what you need to look out for. Some description might have helped. Cute graphics!

Boy, that sure was a lot of stars on that sign!

Played a dozen games for now, and this one's the best so far !! Good job guys, the mood, the humor, the concept, the very clever use of the theme, the progression over time... just a very nice work !

racism the game:
pretty good, i ended u panicking because there were so many people and so little time, which works in its favour to keep it chaotic and fun

Pretty stresfull with a lot of those guys, prety hard to keep track who hates who, but I managed to beat the game in the end. It was fun, I like the graphics and sound. Visual indication of them being angry when you put the wrong guy into the same room were also pretty clear, which is nice.

Made me think about Monster Hotel (from Motion Twin), in a good way!
Congrats on the game, great outcome.

Gave me a laugh once I checked my star rating and realized it had jumped out of the screen.

No idea what I am doing but I like throwing them into space, fun entry was a little lost on what to do and how to know if they were compatible or not

I really like the art style - it works out very well. While the concept itself was very clear it wasn't that easy to figure out which aliens can go together. Also I really would have loved to see their attributes all the time.

And yes - I can second what others said: it is really great that you allow to throw aliens to outer space xD. Once I read that I HAD TO play another round and give this a try.

Also I would say the Theme is absolutely met. I absolutely could feel the limited Space ^^

Fun! It took me a bit to figure out what the symbols meant, but after that it was pretty straightforward. This feels like it would be a good tablet/phone game--dragging and dropping with the mouse got a bit tedious, but that of course is just a limitation of the platform that you have to work with. Nice work!

I was having so much fun trying to satisfy those little racists. The game got harder and I got more forgetful, and when the purple alien arrived, I was already ready to say goodbye to my star ratings.

The art style, music, sound, and controls were great. The direction taken with "limited space" was creative. :)

My only issue was with having to distinguish their likes and dislikes with symbols that didn't seem to correlate visually. The heart/like symbol looks like a pink down arrow and the dislike looks like a red 4 leaf clover. A simple happy yellow smiley and a mad red face, I feel, would improve the UI (at least in my limited brain XD).

it was very funny! At first I did not recognize the heart symbol and did not know what to do. But as soon as I noticed I beat it first try.
I like the vibe and the music of this game!

Really fun entry! I got up to 17/18 stars I think? I liked the progression of difficulty until the 4th color was introduced which completely overwhelmed me. But other than that I think the mood was great and the gameplay felt very fun and direct!

I like the gameplay that can go on endlessly, the music and the graphics are very good, I never thought that sorting customers into their numbers could be so interesting
