Controls are a bit tough but it's a fun idea with some great originality

This game is ultra cute! The dialogue and story + the different music for every planet is what makes this little game shine so much. It was tremendous fun to run the planet's errands and interact with them. The idea is really good, I could definitely see this become a full game, maybe on mobile as well. If I had a remark it would be about the ship control. It is quite challenging, and I don't believe that as it is now, it adds a lot to the gameplay. Maybe something more fluid could work better. Great work nonetheless. I am happy I got the change to play it
Good choice of music, and good take on the theme. Very cute seeing the planets with personalities.
The movement could do with refinement as I felt there was too much fighting with the controls to go where I wanted to
Ship controls felt very hampered. I understood how the recharge worked, but it never really felt "good" to control, maybe if there was an on-screen icon to show the booster recharging, or having a limited ability to move normally but still needing to rely on the booster to really get going. Loved the theming :)
This was really fun and funny. I think the ship mechanics don't have to be as weird as they are now (joining together romantically with another planet is a solid connection imo), Art/music is amazing and I was laughing a lot while playing

I liked that there is a narrative part about traveling between planets. Controls though feel a bit weird, and "The end" screen for some reason appeared when i haven't even been to all the planets.
I thought the planets were very cute and I loved their personalities. I also loved the whole concept of the game, although in practice the controls were a little hard to get where you wanted to go. Really great idea with a lot of potential.
A very cute experience, playing around with a narrative to connect the planets together. It was a bit confusing to understand where to go, so I kind of randomly flew around. I also wished it was possible to give yourself momentum from the rope easier, mostly I had no control over where I was going to fly. However, the narrative was pretty cute and gave me a good reason to keep on playing. Great work!
I really liked the music and the dialogue that was really personal. I also liked the sense of mystery and that you didn't know what to expect.
This game has a great atmosphere! The planets all have their own unique personalities! Very cool!
Absolutely love the vibe! Music is fantastic, dialogue has tons of personality, art is super cute.
Really into the slinging mechanic as well, but tapping WASD to kinda bump the ship made it a little hard to control.
Lovely entry!
