I am become Katamari Damacy, RULER OF THE GALAXY.
Lovely game, my best was 111 :D
Really cool idea! Kind of hard to controll but great work anyway.
I like the graphics. It would be cool if you could switch from planet to planet. good job though
Looks really good IMO, nice concept, runs smoothly , even if it's seems a bit messy after some "collects" ( But that fact that you look ridiculous is fun)
Best score 71
Really nice game. Only frustration I had was I kept on picking items up in a way that made me more stick-like than ball-like, which made moving around a little tricky. Other than I really enjoyed it.
Could help to sing to my left whilst playing. "La lalala la la la, laa la laa la laaa"
Anyway, I really enjoyed playing this. Took me 5 tries to get a size of 43! I was really impressed at my effort at first, then I looked at the comments.. Gonna save this for later and get a high-score!
Even though the 3d models are super simple, the graphics are really nice. The particles and fog add a lot to it.
Otherwise, interesting take on the theme!
The lyrics are from Katamari Damacy if you didn't get that, hah.
Thanks for all the great comments everyone!. I never played katamari before but i understand the main mechanics of it. Funny hearing everyone say the theme song from katamari haha.
Nice work, would be nice to be able to gain seconds by destroying some of your own parts.
I became the largest object in the system. It is very fun. I really liked your game.
P.S. You have good trailer :)
I had trouble getting the hang of it at first but then it became very agreeable. Very Katamari like even though I rarely ended up looking like a ball
Really nice: a bit hard to control sometimes but great mood :P I use quite the same sticking system in my game too :)
This is amazing! :) I loved it. Really addictive, I played it for too long! Well done!
Linux version does not run on my machine. Just immediately exits after controller and resolution config
The game won't start on linux. Launched it from the terminal, no crashe logs or anything :p
Interesting game.Though I think it might be better to make target objects smaller, so the rolling could be more smooth.
Naa na na na na na na na Katamari Damacy!
The game fits perfectly within the theme and is a lot of fun to play! I would have preferred it if it weren't time based and encouraged exploration instead. And like the others pointed out, smaller objects or more diverse objects would have been better for smooth rolling.

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's amazing!) Really wonderful game with cool graphics and physics)
