This was fun, once I figured out what was going on! Great use of theme and fun gameplay!

Hi! And thanks for playing and the comment!
What would you say felt the most confusing about the game when you played it at first? It would be really useful if you could elaborate your experience a bit so I would get an idea what parts of the game I would need to improve. Was it the movement, magnetism rules (which color attract/repel which color) or something else?
Also, I did not have time to make tutorial or in-game instructions but there was some instructions on the game page itself. Did you happen to notice/read them before playing or did you start playing right away?
It would be greatly appreciated if you could answer to these so I can improve my game design skills.
I did not read the instructions and just jumped in. At first, I couldn't figure out how to move the planets without the on screen buttons. Also, the on screen buttons move the planets really slow. Then I figured it out with the arrow keys. I would also like to move them with A and D. Then I was wondering what I needed to collect and what to avoid. After restarting once or twice, it was not hard to understand. The instructions on your itch page are clear, I just didn't see them. I would suggest putting where you enter your nickname on the main menu and maybe adding options for volume level or on/off. Hope this helps!
