Interesting game concept. Very Zen. At one point my ship floated entirely off the screen. It was rather funny! Thanks for the chill out sesh. The music is very good, would love to see some text/graphics/video in your GitHub README.

Fantastic and innovative interpretation of the theme. Interesting and engaging gameplay with relatively few but well thought out mechanics. Music choice fit quite nicely and art direction was appropriate. No bugs and stable game. Fantastic job!
Great idea with scale and gravity~ The art is simple but really delicacy. Love it
Congratulations. It's and amazing idea and perfectly executed! I felt it increases a little quickly the difficulty, but it's a great work. Congrats!!
Wow! This was a really cool concept and polished as well! Easy to pick up, hard to master. Managed to get to the "Thanks for playing" screen! I enjoyed the different mechanics that appeared throughout. I really like interacting with the planets with the small orbiting rocks. Made for some tense moments, rushing to avoid collisions. Great job!
Wow, amazing game! It really feels like a ready to sell game! Really great concept and nice degree of polishing! This game is a lot of fun! It just sometimes felt a bit hard to click on the planets, dunno if the hitbox has some offset or something, but that led me to use arrow keys instead since they were more reliable, but besides that really great job!
I think if you can get some streamers to play this, there's a lot of laughs and exhilarating moments to be had. My "waltz" was a pure comedic farce as my planets ballooned and shrunk up in fevered panics.
I think you have some kind of collision or raycasting problem with your mouse detection. There were some clutch moments when I'm quite sure I clicked on a planet correctly, but it did not register. Worth looking into.
Very enjoyable entry. Nice work.
This is a really cool puzzle game! A really unique take on the theme, and youve captured a pretty chill vibe with the audio and visuals. There are a lot of tense moments as I'm panicking and trying to find which planet to scale to avoid crashing, which is a lot of fun. Nice job on making so many diverse levels too.
Very nice little puzzle game.
It sometime felt hard to switch between planets to scale them, I don't know if the collider for the click is too small, but it sometime didn't work.
Also, if the spaceship goes outside the screen, it just slide along side it :P feels like it should restart the level.
But I like the music, the calm little place you build in space and the dramatic explosions when you fail, it's a visually polished little experience :)
Neat mechanic that is fun to play with. Interesting take on the Theme as well. Aesthetic of the game is rather nice, quite simple graphics and good backing music.
For improvement, I'd suggest making the Planet selection box a bit bigger. I felt like I was clicking on Planets to select them and yet it was not registering.
Nice job!
I really liked how creatively the theme was implemented. It was truly an unusual experience and I can’t remember anything like it. But the controls seemed a little complicated and not at all obvious to me. My brain was constantly breaking down, trying to quickly switch between planets. Overall, you did a good job delivering a really good project.
I thought the movement mechanic was really clever! I'd love to see a little trajectory line for my spaceship to make maneuvering easier. Overall a pretty fun game :)
