Built in HTML5. Works best in Chrome. Music doesn't work in Firefox, sound effects don't work in IE.
I had no idea what to do with this theme other than something weirdly abstract. I originally didn't intend to upload it, but then I wanted to see what people made of it and changed my mind in the end. The comp deadline had already passed, so here it is as a jam entry.
Everything about this game fits together so perfectly, The music, the sfx and the visual aesthetics work together so well I played much longer than I thought I would.
Yes, i think you went a bit overboard with following the theme :D I've seen some games with no objective or way to loose, like "Be the wind" or "Zenbox", and there is a lot of games playing with geometric visuals. Putting it all together, you made something that's hardly a game, but definitely an interesting experience. For some reason, it actually works - it is engaging for a minute or two. That a good time for a LD game! Should you back off a step from following the theme, and gave this game some sort of objective, this could be a very promising entry!
I quite liked this, though the controls were a bit iffy (i.e. you continue diagonally if you let go of one of two buttons being pressed). It's worth noting that the audio works in Firefox Nightly (probably due to MP3 format?), I'd suggest using .ogg and .mp3 based on which browser accesses the page.
I thought the title was refering to outer space, that would have been a cool name :3
Interesting idea though!
A bit sad to don't see more gameplay or experience range.
