*This game was inspired by the theme "Tiny World" for the GameDevTv 2025 Jam

3 days 6 hours 34 mins early.


Turmoil has engulfed the outer systems. A tiny, unremarkable planet, previously dismissed as economically irrelevant, has become the focal point of a galactic dispute.

Recent discoveries revealed that natural cotton candy, when compressed under extreme conditions, produces an energy source more potent than plasma cores. As demand surged, control of the planet became the subject of an escalating conflict.

Two factions emerged: The Archivists, rigid traditionalists who seek order through historical precedent. And the HypeCore Syndicate, a volatile collective driven by fame, noise, and competitive theatrics.

After centuries of inconclusive war and resource depletion, both factions have agreed to resolve their claims through ancient Earth traditions. The Archivists, favoring single combat, revived the concept of gladiatorial trials. The HypeCore Syndicate watched a lot of professional wrestling.

Now, each side prepares to send its chosen pilot into a zero-gravity arena with bouncy walls. One match. One victor. Total control of the galaxy’s most valuable snack-based energy source.

The galaxy holds its breath...

Hey, fun concept!

Well put together and fun for a bite-sized experience.

Would be nice to see you juice the impacts and damage events a bit more.

Good job!

We had a great time working on this. The community has been helpful. Looking forward to my next jam. First jam. Second game.
