I liked i

At first it was difficult to understand, but at the next levels I was already professionally satisfied with the apocalypse of cross-platform scales.,

The only thing to note is that I would like the location of the previous explosion to be marked on the screen, otherwise it sometimes gets lost among the lines.

thanks for the feedback! glad you liked it

I lovee the artstyle and the way you interpreted the theme is so creative!

The trails are a nice touch to help you find the right orbit! Had lots of fun playing with the solar system! ^^

Stopped at level 7 (couldn't do more, got to complex (I lack more space T.T ; this solar system feel so tiny !)

Anyway, good game, had lots of fun, was a bit hard, but "efficient" ! :D

Developer (1 edit)

Yes lvl 7 is the last level and is very hard. last levels are too cramped. I wanted to make space expand based on level and add zoom in/out to make selection easier. but there was no time unfortunately. the limited space can work as part of the challenge, but playtesting showed that it is really annoying and not fun. Thanks for the feedback!

Interesting and creative

Just a bit difficult

Good job:D

Leaving aside my moons had more seasons than indian food, the gameplay really makes me crave a bit more, but I don't know what... (in a good way :D)
Solid minimalist art and overall vibe!

HAHA yeah, developing this into a full solar-system/universe  sandbox could be the next step. Thanks for the feedback!

Nice idea, loved the physics and used of theme, makes you want to see how much you can orbit around each other.

Really cool idea, I enjoyed playing with the physics to get some very satisfying orbits going on. 

I feel like the play area could be increased a bit as sometimes it felt like it was the only thing stopping me from be able to get an orbit going

Developer(+1)

thanks for the feedback! Yes I agree, increasing area size with level as well as zoom in/out feature can help the game alot. but unfortunately there was no time to add these mechanics

Submitted(+1)

Yeah super hard to squeeze in everything in such a short time, but getting done what you did is seriously cool and impressive 

Submitted

Great game ! I really like the concept :)

Very unique concept! I really enjoyed the visuals and the trails left by the planets/stars were so helpful. Awesome job!

Very cool game, ended up being quite the challange

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

This is great! Tbh ended up being way more fun than I expected, so satisfying when the orbits work out. Love the physics, so smooth, and really nice controls. Quite difficult, but I imagine thats the point. I agree with other comments that maybe some hint as to what the trajectories will be before starting could be nice.
Great stuff!

Developer

Glad you liked it! thanks for the feedback :D

It was really hard to manage planets to avoid the collision and I really like the concept!
It could be fun to have a kind of "sandbox" where I can create my own planet with its own mass !

Anyway, it was a nice experience, well done!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I had to make planet collisions a fail condition since you can make them "huddle". yes I agree, sandbox mode is cool. I wanted to add the ability to slightly change mass of existing planets but did not have time unfortunately.
