Planet Scaler, our GMTK entry!

Planet Scaler
A browser game made in HTML5

We got a little puzzle game for you, folks, and a couple of levels to beat! 

https://afluorescent.itch.io/planet-scaler

In our game, Planet Scaler, you control a spaceship that can hop between planets. Resize (or should I say "rescale"?) the planets to change the potential trajectories of your flight and collect the stars while you are at it. 

Entering an orbit may prove challenging at first: you ought to aim for the imaginary tangent line of your target orbit. Otherwise, your ship will not be attracted by the planet properly, and you'd simply drift away into the unknown 凸(⊙▂⊙✖ )

Oh btw, when you leave a planet's orbit, you shrink it so much - it ceases to exist. Plan your route carefully.


Give it a spin, your feedback is appreciated :)


NB: last-minute WebGL build has 1 minor bug - level background somehow doesn't render. It's still not ugly in the browser - but more appealing if you download the game.
