Really loved the music. The main menu was the highlight of the game for me. I had some trouble using the controls and thought that it was quite hard to handle. However, being chased by such an alien with the camera that looks at it was really interesting. Thanks for cheering me up! Props to the voice guy. Collective laugh here!

The music was awesome and the game had really frantic gameplay. Really well done!

The little camera view of the alien chasing really reminded me of MGS2 where you can see enemy guards breaching a door to enter the room you're in.

Yeah, I waited for this interpretation of the theme (we had something like this on our list as well so I love to see it). The graphices are very nice and the intro is well made. The music is really awesome.
I like the game, but I miss to get a flow. Maybe I am just to bad. But I had the feeling to constantly getting stuck at the bugs on the side or on blocks and I couldn't get around it. If that would be playable a bit smoother I would play this alot. Another cool thing would be if the game would correlate with the sound beat, that would make it perfect. But still, really like your game, good job.

HAHA the voices were awesome, and It was really fun, Got stuck on the first level, for some reason level selection didn't enable me to grab the second one even if I tried several times?

The controls felt a little bit wonky, but still, plenty of fun!

@marshal Glad to hear it! @totalaj did a good job animating it ;)

@beelzeboss Thank you :)

@gleb-shishov Thank you, glad you liked it. Your game is very nice as well!

@drevilbrain Thank you so much that's really humbling :) Yeah, @totalaj did an amazing job with the tunes.

@paulo-augusto Haha nooo ^-^ Thank you very much :)

@leeloo Yeah it was difficult to work out a good randomization method for the props so we still had issues with impossible levels where you get utterly blocked when we released :/ I really like your idea with matching the beat of the music to the levels. It might be a bit difficult but if we improve upon this game we'll make sure to try it ;)

@nobledemon Glad you liked it! :) Yeah, you have to complete the first level to select the second one (which is a bit silly since the first level is difficult).

It was a really funny game, probably the funniest I've played this jam. My only bit of constructive feedback would be that I felt the lanes were a bit too thin, and I would prefer hitting an object to slow you down rather than stop you completely. Really well done, both cool graphics, style and responsive gameplay. I really enjoyed playing Out of Space.

gameplay at 33:00ish https://www.twitch.tv/videos/298139021##

@tetra Thank you very much for the kind words, and the feedback was good aswell, i think a problem might have been not having enough people to test the gameplay for this kind of things, but thank you very much :)

@tetra I saw your gameplay, you played really well! I wish you wouldn't have been hit by that bullshit rng hole in the end so that you could have seen the final stage of the game :P

@blooobird @dj-depressive ah no problem. You cannot ask for more from a LD game really, it's gonna have bugs simply because there isn't the time. Will you guys take this further you think?

@tetra I don't know, we liked the idea as a Ludum Dare submission but we're not really sure it'd make it on the "real" game market. However, depending on how we place in this competition, we might develop the game further.

Cool and funny game. The voiceover is hilarious, art and music are also nice. But level design seems a little bit hard and over complicated, especially for the first level.
Anyway, nice job and good luck with future projects!

A really cool runner with some lovely visuals and music. I love the mood of this game!

The moment I saw the announcement of the theme, my first thought was "you're in space and you run to get out of space". I didn't make a game with that line of thought... but YOU did. Bravo!

Amusing game. I did several playthroughs. Couldn't beat level 2, and I was disappointed the level select didn't allow me to ever select anything but level 1 even though I had already finished it. Oh well. Good work!

@chris-coe yeah sorry about the level select. I got lazy and made the level unlock as soon as the final tile of that level is loaded into the game. Thanks for playing!

It has a Cutscene! Super loud tho. It uses the second meaning of the theme! I can't read the overlay ingame (out of screen to the left). Nice audio! Sadly there is no feeling for how far back the monster is.
Quite fun to play!

Holy moly the performance in ultra. I understand why potato is the default, all the lights must kill the performance :P

The game was fun and had many interesting elements, my favorite the "back camera" for the monster when it got close. The level design felt at times a bit too busy but never overwhelming. The music was awesome and sometimes suddenly changed to a despacito remix.

I also loved the intro.

Great entry! Had a lot of fun and frustration trying to reach the end. :) The person that though it would be a good idea put the cactus plants in the middle of the corridor should get fired.

@dokalfar Thank you for the feedback, yeah, we didn't implement sound control, sorry

@sh1rogane Thank you very much, we used a high end computer for the graphics and didn't realize the performance till we tested on other computers, well then. Still glad you liked it

@drauthius Thank you, we might have made it a bit hard, i might or not be responsible for the placement of a certain plant

@vdovah <3 thank you very much, glad you liked it

@zelberor Thank you, nice that you enjoyed it
