The game is really polished and the graphics are very nice and clean. It would have been great to reward the player with a "you win" after u beat a level, or maybe just a short sound. The gameplay is well designed, checkpoints would have been great though.

The music is really special and unique. Very nice!

Great game. I liked the including of secret stars. The movement is a bit weird at the beginning but one gets used to it. Great sound track too.
Some checkpoints would have been good but not strictly needed.
I liked the tutorial very much. Should have made something similar too.
Sometimes it felt like I was gonna switch to the next planet but then it switch back to the old one :(. But maybe that was just me.
Cheers!

Thank you for your feedback!
The player goes to the nearest planet, that could explain the trouble you had with the sudden switch :)

I enjoyed this one, I liked the chill music, the movement mechanics, It's one of the better ones i've tried so far, the visuals are okay too, I wasn't able to get further than level 2 because I'm not good at the game, It might be good to have some checkpoints, I'm not sure :) Good job!

Good game! It's very polished, the movement feels great once you get used to it, and it's pretty original. The stars are really hard to get though, and it's really punishing that you lose them when you die, so I gave up on those.

Glad you enjoyed the game!
I agree, the stars are supposed to be a hard challenge but I didn't realize I made them that hard to get ^^
