Overall it is a very cheerful game with the fast pace game play and music. I like the little planet idea and the how little monster jumps between planets. This has potentials!
funny and cute, but not easy to play, is not intitive but is funny to try ^^ great job!
also some better graphics for enemies would help the game look better xd
I like the colors and the graphics themselves are very good.
Fun game & nice idea. It goes a little crazy after a while & the humans can be hard to spot, but I enjoyed it.
Huge potential in this. It was so sad to be the last little monster...
Very cute. Shame attacking on certain bumpy places is nearly impossible...
nice little fun game. i loved the graphics. and it was a good experience overall
Nice game overall. Very cute and challenging. I found controls a bit imprecise but may be is my machine.
So, so much fun! New mechanics here! :)
The only thing i don't really like is the excessive camera zooming. other than that, awesome netry!

Nice mechanic, but you are not kidding about "distant". I didn't reach it.
I got to the second planet by colliding with too many humans and being thrown into space.
The second planet had a few guys that I couldn't attack no matter what.
I liked the music though.
Pretty and fun to play! I had a good time!
PS: you wanted a playthrough of my game because it is not available for Mac, here it is! : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3B1_QD1_cbw
A game you almost can't stop playing, is a great game. Your game was one of them. Damn it was great. Only thing i don't like is the camera movment on the hilly plants, it made me a little seasick.
SuperCool!!~~ ☆ﾟChris~
This game be more fun and grown a lot than when i first saw it at the mannning-center!~
the sense of the attack-operation is interesting , some planets are very challenging~~(I think it may depends on how unevenness of the planet's ground~~ and sometimes is becasue the human's color is same with the house's door,haha~~Did it was intentional?:P)
also,the color matching and fade are Colorful and Dazzling~☆
I'm particularly favored the moment which the camera zoomout when i hit these smallhuman and let them flying~ i feel these energy-balls just like the meteor to delimit the horizon! How beautiful it is~~ the smooth bgm also let it more enjoyable.
I play it with my nephew just now~ he also like it so much~-- esp your great design of cartoon .on the other hand, I feel you game may have some similar charaters with Meditation games， it can get spiritual relaxation.
finally，also sorry for my so lately reply~~ get the link for the first time at the day before yesterday;but was still fighting with myteam's project until last night just got freetime from it ~~
what a good game~~wish you have a good rate and do more cool game next time~~~ Best wishes!
The vote was forgotten just now~~~ :P (this commment just for vote~☆ )
I quite like the simple graphics, they are actually kinda cute in a a way. Also, the jumping and sliding is a sort of combo that you try and keep up is a cool mechanic. Hope you learned some new things from this and can make an awesome game!
It glitched when I double jumped high. But so much potential. Really looking forward to seeing the finished version!
Nice game! Graphics are pretty cute, music is great and it has nice and interesting mechanic. Great job!
Nice gameplay and physics! Sometimes I got a bit lost trying to jump from a planet to other, but overall is good experience :)
Absolutely adorable and fun. I wish I had a way to track which planets I've been to or have some sort of mini-map to keep track of where I am in the universe. Great look and feel; good job.
Nice Physics here! Also interesting concept. I really like the idea of moving from planet to planet. The web build sometimes drop the framerate but I think it s fine.

Mini Submission FAQ
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it’ll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you’re a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Historically, more games are entered in the Compo, but with more people and more time, Jam games have the potential to be better (that doesn’t mean they are). Many solo participants do enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn’t support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it’s an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that’s okay. It happens. We’re flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like “porting” to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE!!!
