> By dedicating his life to the art of Movement, Maxim has ascended into a higher plane of being- A PLANET.

Existence as a great rock in the infinite vastness of space isn't as chill as it sounds though. TINY CREATURES start to appear on your surface! And as their civilization keep progressing, so is your health declining. Thankfully, you have the power of nature to defend yourself. Let us make it clear: those creatures DO NOT deserve any mercy. _Electrify_ them, _Flood_ them, PUNCH them! However, you should use your powers accordingly, as some hazards will only be stopped by specific attacks. Keep going for as long as you can before your inevitable demise.

How to Play


(wait for the website to load a white screen and then click on it. This should start the game)

Destroy tiny creatures and hazards for as much points as you can before they'll destroy you

- Rotate yourself with the left and right arrow keys.
- Press 1 to summon a thunder cloud.
- Press 2 to summon a rain cloud.
- Press 3 to summon a devastating punch.

Fantastic intro and cool song. But the game appeared to white screen after.

@stitchesmagoo Thank you! We are working on fixing this problem. For now you should reload the page and click on the cutscene to skip it, this should get you to the title screen and let you play

Got a score of 6282! I love the art, and it was really really funny. The poses the planet does during the attacks are so over the top and lovely! It was a bit difficult though, especially when the factories start coming in. Overall, this was really fun :smile:

This is a real cool game. I liked the art and the music, and just the overall aesthetic. I think that maybe a cooldown timer on the powers would help make the game a little better, but good job overall :)

Cool soundtrack and pixel art! Actions feel juicy.

What an amazing opening cutscene, you hardly needed a game after it. Everything moved and interacted well, and the visuals are great. The cooldowns are a bit harder to predict than I'd like, but I still had a lot of fun spinning around, putting out budding civilizations and punching everything. Great job!

Intro sequence was cracked. Terrific job. Hope you win for humor

Didn't manage to load the intro sequence that the other people seem to enjoy, but the game itself was very creative anyways! Haven't seen this kind of game before. The overall theme is hilarious and I did enjoy playing as planet Maxim ;)

A cooldown timer would be a good addition.

Delightfully goofy albeit I found the momentum on the planet spinning and the judging of the area affected by the different attacks a little hard to judge.

Very fun concept and funny game, the title screen made laugh too. Felt quite dizzying and chaotic as the game progressed but that just added to the fun. Nice work, enjoyed playing it!

A very cool game, but a little too much with how fast it accelerates in difficulty!

The only game with some proper gore I've seen on this jam, I think :)

Brutal and fun experience! Well done and thank you for bringing it to the stream!

Silly little game, really gave off the vibes of old Russian flash games. Also what a gorgeous intro, maxim is literally me

A quite fun game, I really liked the art style. The progression through the "ages" was fun as well, even though it led to my eventual demise

The game has a strange and quirky charm that I really like. the cutscene was really funny and the killing animations were great too! I love the combination or aesthetics here. Also the music that plays is awesome I love it

The gameplay loop is really fun, the difficulty ramps up pretty quick, but I had a blast trying to beat my high score, I like that there's some amount of strategy to using the different powers.

really good entry! I had fun
