apologies but i'm having a bit of trouble opening this game on a mac... after unzipping, the file has no file extension so i can't tell what program i can open it with. thanks :)

the art looks really sweet btw.

There should be a program file named "Shooting for the Moon" in the folder itself. If you double-click, it should open automatically. I don't personally have a Mac, so I apologize if what I say is incorrect in any way. However, I did consult someone who had a Mac, and they got the game to load for them this way.

This is so fantastic - I had a great time checking out all the possibilities and really loved how well the artwork & music worked together. Awesome job!

man this is completely delayed but I'm back on a davekat kick and this is so good, and so sad. I started to tear up at the clock striking "Heroic," and the discussion of alternate-timeline Dave never getting "his" Karkat back.

The animations are great, the music use is great, the backgrounds are great, the sound effects are great, just. The whole thing. Wonderful job, all of you. A+++

This game is beautiful. DaveKat's one of my many OTPs admittedly, but even if this wasn't relationship involved, I'm thinking Heroic ending/Moving on would be something that even a Dave who doesn't feel flushed for Karkat would do. So really good job keeping these guys acting like they would in canon.

Only complaint: MY FEELS ARE ON THE GROUND. GOD DAMN IT WHY. D:

But AMAZING game, this doesn't have nearly as much publicity as it deserves. Props to all of you in the making of this, seriously.
