Collect as much solar energy as possible to turn the houses frown upside down!
Facing the sun is crucial for that, so rotate counter- or clockwise if you need to
You may also want to avoid dirty objects so you can collect energy at maximum efficiency

Horizontal movement with Left Arrow/A and Right Arrow/D

Rotate counterclockwise with Up Arrow/W

Rotate clockwise with Down Arrow/S

The concept and the art are very funny. I love the cheesiness. The audio of 5 overlapping pigeons and later obstacles made me smile, I'm glad I kept playing. Probably want to use mouse for angle, or two other keys with the right hand like ',' and '.'.

Liked it! Nice progression with many surprises.

Took a little to find how to rotate to make the house smile ! I kept on seeing the owner throwing me in the trash .. Humor points :D One of the first different takes on the collecting theme! Compliments!

Such a cute entry! The crayon art is wonderful and implemented well, and the gameplay is great. It reminds me of Game & Watch gallery style games. The difficulty ramp-up also being a bunch of funny events makes getting through the game fun, although I wasn't able to get past level 5- brutal! I wish there was an indicator of how much energy I was collecting, but doing it based off of the "vibes" is sort of cool too. On that note, the implementation of the sunlight effect and background gradient is excellent.
