This was really neat! got to the point of creating gold and taking up the entire game screen; very mechanically satisfying way of gamifying the creation of complex elements; uses the theme and limitation really well imo

I'm glad that you've made it that far, I'm adding a bunch more end game stuff now that the jam is over.  It's good to know that people are willing to play the game that far :)

This has been my fave game so far! it was super satisfying and engaging and I wish there were more in the best way possible! Gave me similar vibes to some old flash games on free sites lol. Looking forward to see what else you do with this!

I had another friend compare it to old flash games too, and I couldn't be more flattered.

I'm keen to keep adding to it too, I got a few ideas.

Highly enjoyable and engaging for something that looks so minimal! I would love to see how this grows and improves!

I enjoyed this a lot. It was way more engrossing than I expected and strangely relaxing. I only wish there was more to do, like some upgrades to purchase.

I never found much use for the matter generator, the tractor beam was MVP, would have liked to see it get stronger and more effective.

Thanks, I'm definetly gonna add more to this one, probably in the form of more abilities and elements.

The matter generator is good if you want to get the sun stupid big for fun, otherwise your limit is the 300 hydrogen that's there from the start. It'll make more sense if there was actaully an end goal.
