A super sweet game/interactive experience. I love the concept, the music, and the visual style is fancy and works well with the rest.I especially enjoyed seeing what each planet did, looked like, and reading their little descriptions (well written, and the star wars reference was funny).
I'll admit i didn't always hear the difference adding or removing a planet made, but i may have been too busy trying to see all of them.
I think a minor little detail that would've been nice, was the planet icons in the selection wheel, reacting to you as select them (a small outline around the icon, the icon changing in size, or the icon having a little animation for example).
Besides those things, I don't have anything to critique really. Its a solid concept, and there is loads of room to expand with more planets and additional things. It's cool how after playing around you end up with your own solar system (as advertised).
Super sweet!
Thank you for your detailed feedback and the ideas you suggested. And sincerely, well done for catching the Star Wars reference! :)
Not a problem. It was a joy to experience!
I have a little solar system generator prototype on my page, its not as cool as this one.
A relaxing game with good art. Well done
Thanks for your feedback!
A beautiful and meditative soundscape. The graphics are gorgeous, the platenary descriptions are adorable, and the music just felt so so soothing. Great job, no notes. :3
Thank you for your kind comment and for enjoying our game :)
This is very unique. I like that relaxing sandbox type experiences are being represented in the jam! Well done!
Thank you for your feedback! We hoped to offer players a relaxing moment, and I'm glad to know that you felt it!
I like the visual style and the gameplay elements are satisfying to interact with. Nice work!
Thank you for your feedback and for testing our game!
A really nice game! I like little games like this where you can just chill and do whatever you want and have fun!
It was totally the experience we were looking for, glad you liked it!
Loved the concept! Game is quiet fun and relaxing!
Thanks for your feedback!
I cannot fathom the (probably) large amounts of math behind this because I did not do well in math. But loved the game, I love space, it was very calming and loved the audio!
Thanks for your feedback! It's true that creating gravity was a big challenge, thanks for pointing it out!
Cool! I'm a total sucker for space related media. It's hard to not be overly critical since I love space so much and always want to see it done right. It was really amazing that you managed to make this in the time limit, especially in the browser. In an ideal world with a normal amount of time, it would be awesome to be able to make planets effect each others orbit, maybe even be able to make some of the smaller planets orbit the bigger ones like moons!
Thanks for your feedback and advice! It's great to get feedback from people who love space-based games so much!
Really cool space game ! Like others have said, i really liked the music and the ambiance it provides. The visuals are also pleasant to look at and smooth. I really wished it had another gameplay element to limit your planet creation a bit just to give it a goal. Maybe some missions like "Create X amount of Y planet type to unlock Z planet type" or "Make a habitable planet". Overall though, still a solid submission. Keep it up ^-^
Thank you for your feedback! We originally wanted to create more interactions between the planets, for example if you shot one planet with another they could merge together, but we preferred to optimize everything as much as possible for greater rendering quality. The idea of missions is very interesting, thank you for suggesting it!
High quality, very relaxing game. Loved the audio.
Thanks for your feedback, it's much appreciated!
I love the vibe of this game! The music and sound design is sooo great, and the visuals are really impressive, especially for a game that can be played on browser!
Thank you for your feedback! It was important to us that it's works on browser, so it's good to know that our efforts have paid off!
Great game about space. Space games are always the best :)
Totally agree with you :) Thanks for your feedback!
Some sweet ambient music fr tho
Thank you for your feedback on the music, it's really appreciated!
Love the orbits, Impressive design, fun experience.
Thank you for your feedback and for testing our game!
i cant belive you fit all that in the web browser
We took advantage of the 96 hours to spend some time on optimization to offer the best possible experience, thank you for noticing it! :)
It's a bit simple, but if there had been more time, an incredible game structure could have emerged. well done:)
Hi! Thank you for your feedback and your encouragements!
simple yet effective visuals, and loved the music/sound design!
Hi! Thank you for your feedback and for trying our game!
This game looks so well. Would have liked some introductory tips to play, since I had to do random stuff and read the game description and some coments. Good job!
Normally, a tutorial should pop on startup to explain the controls for launching planets and navigating in space. Sorry if that wasn't the case or if the instructions nor the purpose of the game were not clear enough... But thanks for your feedback!
I really like the musical implementation of this game, I found it really enjoyable.
Unique as well really loved it.
Thank you for your feedback!
The implementation was a bit challenging, but we really wanted to offer this kind of musical experience... I'm happy to know that you enjoyed the game!
