By the way
I would be intrested if you guys would want to see this game (way more polished with more mechanisms and different 'gods') on Steam or other platform?

You asked in-game to tell if you should continue working on it for Steam. I think that it can be a good choice for kids, but I think the graphics would have to be more appealing to them and they won't get the references of muppets or our-god-Cthullu.
Congrats! Good job!
The game was fun and it makes you multitask which is cool for an event like this where simplicity is usually king.
It was addicting enough to make me try it more than a few times and while at the end I still sucked at it, I had a lot of fun letting the world die!
I don't know why, but I see it strangely well with VR devices XD... Anyway, I like gameplay, and I'm interested in what might become in the future :)
And the tentacle physics were amazing 10/10 would glitch again
My only complaint is that the mouse controls were difficult, but I am on Mac and so I had to use the web version. I imagine full screen it would've been easier.
Nicely done!
The graphics are nice and it plays good. Also, I like the idea of cthulhu working in an office, overseeing all the planets. :smile:
I had no problems with the mouse control, but sometimes I wiped the bugs onto the planet, which was infuriating.
But I managed to beat the game and I had fun and a good laugh while doing it! Good job! :smiley:
It was pretty difficult, I think mostly because it was too easy to accidentally swat a bug onto the globe.
Fun game, and a clever, original idea.
Really enjoyable game, 10/10 for the bizarre adventure
It's probably for the best.
Neat game, the controls are a bit rough for me (but I'm on a trackpad). I like the "Surgeon Simulator" idea applied to the cosmic scale!
only had a few problems. I was having troubles keeping the planet's dots on the light it just kept on spinning out of the light and i had troubles seeing the difference between the red and orange blocks.
I did laugh when the bug got on top of the planet that was pretty cute.
I'd love to see the houses tear off and fly away if you rotate the planet too intensely, I was kinda expecting that :D
the whole idea is fun and the game well made, though the bug swatting mechanic would need some improvement (since it's fairly easy to just spam the 'hand' by going all over the screen with mouse). That would basically be my only issue :)
Grat job, leaving my rating. Cheers!
I loved the look of the planet as well! Very polished, and complete feeling game! Congrats!
The controls where a bit of a struggle. During my first run the globe was spinning wildly out of control as I desperately tried to wrestle it. After a few round I learned to control the beast but it was sill a bit to hard to control. The game is very unique and charming in an odd way and the audio is a good math to the rest of the game. If you want to develop the game further I fear if will be hard to make the game enjoyable for more than a few minutes but if you continue to add more weird shit it might become a interesting product.
GG guys!
The controls are a bit hard to get but when you have it, it's okay.
The graphics are really good and I enjoyed the small pictures on the background that you can smash.
You did a great job buddy, and by the way, thanks for your feeback on my game, really appreciated !
See you !
But I'm reaaally sad about the fact that the planet doesn't slow down on its own... you quickly end with a speedy-rotating-and-uncontrolable-ball, which breaks a bit the game, since it's way too hard in my humble opinion.
I love the desk decoration and the tentacle mechanic :D Btw, amazing graphics.
On the overall, really nice entry, but yeah, the control of the planet is way to hard for me.
Nice graphics, nice theme, the controling of the planet is a bit weird tho... maybe some friction would be nice and faster rotate-acceleration also.
You can watch me playing the game here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5x4fRX8yrw
The bugs did not seem to provide much of a challenge; I could mostly just wave around my mouse and be fine.
By the way, I described the two endings of my game on my page ;)
