Heey, not bat at all for a first animation. I'm voting five for support, keep it up! Here's a tip: since Newgrounds is an english speaking site, people won't understand what it says in your animation and it will affect negatively your score. You should consider translating it. Apart from that, i'm sure you'll make a lot of fun animations in the future.

Holy shit this is genious

you are doing beautiful stuff with simple things. congratulations, keep it up!

This is my favourite entry for FFJ23, keep it up!

Haha damn, this is too impossible.. only way to win is to get away from the crowd and wait for most to be killed, then kill the final survivor

This is very interesting. If i may, i would like to make some few possibly constructive observations. To make it more captivating, i would change the tutorial by making a playable tutorial in wich you can learn and play it step by step, making it less boring to learn. Secondly, i would make the J key also able to skip the "you died" scene, to make it more dynamic for whoever is using the keyboard instead of the mouse. I also would make it more colorful and maybe work a little bit more on the art. Another idea is to make a gradual difficulty, where the more planets you pass by, the harder it gets.
That's it, and congratulations, i found the game very creative.

This is exactly what it aims for. Nostalgic and uplifting. The repeating chord progression with the addition of layers one at a time works pretty well, and when the first drop comes, perfectly announced by those 80's sampled tom drums... It brings us quite a satisfaction! Quite joyful and dancing! Great job! I kinda missed a more developed bass line, though, maybe with a cleaner sound to contrast from the synths. To me this is the only thing away from a 5 stars vote (in the mood i am right now at least).

I definitely can imagine a very dark level here. It doesn't have a melodic theme, it's more about textures and progressions, which makes it easy to listen to without it getting annoying. This is very good for a game. The only disadvantage is that it is less assimilative, you know? I see this song more in a dark level than a boss. I would think a boss should have a clear melodic theme, something that would make you think "oooh it's that boss' song!". But that's just my opinion... This would definitely fit great in a game regardless of that.

Nice, i can really see this darkening down a scene. I'm not used to rating audio yet.. my first thoughts are that this audio is very simple and short, therefore it shouldn't get an outstanding score. But simple and short is often perfect for certain purposes, and your audio is definitely ideal for a bunch of purposes. So i'm giving you three and a half stars, score in which the little head is smiling but not particularly enthusiastic(as he would be if listening to an outstanding piece of music).

i love your art, very creative and original!

i'm curious about its background story

i absolutely love this
