This game was made in 7 days as part of The Very Serious Juniper Dev Game Jam with the theme "Spin to Win", which is why you spin planets in this game to win a spot on the leaderboard.

It is a very serious jam, which is why all humor in this game is strictly dry and mature, and why my very serious-looking face is staring at you from the UFO.

 Fun ☀️ Fact 

This game was made entirely using solar power (and a little bit of brain power) ☀️🧠

Everything was programmed and modeled on an old refurbished laptop, and it was only powered by solar panels and a battery during the game jam. 

Outta sunjuice? Break time!

DISCLAIMERS

  • I added sounds last second, and didn't have time to normalize them. Adjust volume in settings.
  • The butthole on the first planet IS NOT the Anthropic logo. It is Kurt Vonneguts drawing of a butthole from Breakfast of Champions
  • The leaderboard system wasn't made during the jam, I copied it from a previous project of mine
