Space Force: Orbital Ordeal by Matthew McClure

​Welcome to the SPACE FORCE, cadet!

Unfortunately, we spent the entire budget coming up with the name SPACE FORCE, so we couldn't afford to get you any equipment.

Luckily, we managed to borrow a tank from the army, so get out there and make your country proud!

Defend the planet from incoming asteroids using the recoil of your shots to move.

This was really fun, i like the sortof juggling combo system. The gravity and firing to move really work well together! Unfortunatly i slingshoit around the earth and couldn't get back so was just stuck in space :(

nice idea, nicely executed! good job!

Super duper cute! I really enjoyed playing this and I love the Idea and execution.

The gameplay was nice and action-y and I really enjoyed trying to time my shots precisely to both get to where I need and also take down the asteroids.

I think leaning in to the combo idea and having lots of asteroids that move slowly, as well as less oomph and a shorter cool down between shots would've made it all the more jucier!

Also just wanted to mention a little bug that after losing my shot cooldown was stuck on empty 😅
