Wee! I feel like when I was playing Kuru Kuru Kururin on GBA in my old games. Love that comics at the begining, and well... visually it really IS perfect :D

Very very very very creative mechanics of gameplay...I love the idea behind it. Also graphics and sounds are nice (would love to hear some background or ambient music..) 4/5

Very hard, I had no patience to beat it whole - sorry. The movement mechanics are original and difficult to get used to.
Awesome game.

Fun game :)
I liked the visuals, especially the small story sequences.

It was quite hard to visualize where and when to swap planets and/or direction, which unfortunately meant that I ended up not bothering with coins after a few levels into the game, as I was more likely to die than collect them all. I'm sure collecting them all would be a good challenge with more practice though.

Nice touch with the boss at the end.

Holy crap, this is hard. Really hard.

Very polished entry. Crashes on exit.

Love the art style, very simple and appealing. The game is pretty hard, not a bad thing at all. Great entry!

Not sure what it has to do with kittens but I really enjoyed this game. Man, that was a serious concept. this game would also be awesome for mobile. Awesome work. Salute!

For some reason, I just could NOT wrap my head around how to properly move around. I did manage to shuffle through it, but had a lot of difficulty with level 5.

Nonetheless, it's a really novel concept, and it's pulled off very well.

Simple idea making a great result! Its very tricky to wrap your head around how the movement works, especially when you need to both switch planets and directions quickly. The constant turning means you also have to react quick, that makes the game a lot harder than it would be otherwise. This is pretty much a finished game, congratulations! One of the most complete games I played here so far.

Pretty great :D I like that you made it challenging. I made something a bit similar once, check out number 29 on this list: http://zeppelincaptain.wordpress.com/2013/11/06/31-games-in-31-days/
My Ludum Dare entry is actually also a little bit similar (not much, but the similarity is there!).

Nice entry, I fell that worlds are connected in this one. Fun to play and humorous pregame scene. Difficult one, too.

cool concept and old-school graphx! I find the game a bit too hard, though and the sound could be much better

I thought it was going to be easy after learning to play but it's really hard. It's still a pretty good game,good job
