First of all, I am floored by this game. I know that to others it might be a simple game but I think this has some real potential and I do not play games like this at all. I was confused about how the game related to the theme or spring but remembered the additional theme and laughed when you actually took it quite literal.

Visuals: 4/5 - I loved the customizations that I could do for the planets as well as the elements of earth, black holes, etc. in the actual gameplay. It is very beautiful.

Gameplay: 5/5 - I loved gameplay. It wasn't too easy and it was challenging. I loved the balance of it. At first I was confused on how to "grow" your planet but I realized after a couple rounds of playing that I can absorb the planets smaller than me to increase my score. The mechanics of that reminds me of a  mobile game I used to play. Along with gameplay, I love the special care for the UI. I love being able to choose if I can mute or unmute the music, exploring the shop, and seeing the coins available. The gameplay loop is definitely there.

Music: 5/5 - First of all, you had music! Awesome! Second, it was good music! I was really enjoying it. It fit the game so well.

Originality/Style: 5/5 - I think that this game idea is very original for this jam. I loved the style in all aspects of the game making. It almost makes me see the type of developer you are. I loved everything about this game.

Overall: 4/5; Cannot wait to see more if you choose to do so.

Hey it's a really fun game ! The difficulty cruve is well dosed as well as the arrival of different planets does =) . I'm actually quite unsure about the "spring" theme hahaha. I think that it's hard to say wich planets is eatable or not and the sound feedback is quite confusing, i did not know if the bell sound was a good or a bad things unless i saw the counter in the top-left corner. The shop is a great bonus though. The art is gorgeous btw, the planets are beautiful !

Developer

Thanks for the feedback. do you think it is necessary to continue updating the game?

Sweet and satisfying game! The movement is very crisp 

My only criticism is that I find it hard to evaluate when a planet is eatable or not when the sizes are similar.

cool are and vibe tho

thank you for the game!:)

Art style looks AMAZING, super satisfying to just watch, and the game is pretty fun too! The shop is a great touch!

I love that you even did a shop :) The earth looks so cute!

For more coziness I would have loved less fail states, especially those black enemies on black ground rather lead to frustration then to flow.

Simple but well made game! I included it in my Cozy Spring Jam 2023 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look!

Developer

This is very nice! Thank you very much!

I watched the video - it's cool. 

I'm preparing a big enough and interesting game. When I finish it, I can send it to you if you wish. Perhaps this will be a good theme for the video.

A good, time-tested idea (agar.io style) with a lot of room for future improvements.

Very fun game and cool graphics. I was addicted to a game with similar mechanics called Osmos in the good ol' days.

Loved the Interstellar's black hole reference too.
