Game Engine
Uses Unity3D ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Forgot to put a description, oops! This game is a skill and timing based planet orbiting game! It also has multiplayer so you can compete/chill with friends or randoms and die a bunch. Should take anywhere between 15mins - 2hours to beat on your first try depending on how good you are at these kind of games. If it helps motivate you, I believe the end is super rewarding and satisfying to get to ;)

Like some other games, I applaud you for making a risky, challenging game that explores some interesting mechanics that may not be immediately comfortable to the player. I do wish it was slightly easier. I think you could experiment with using the mouse movement instead of aiming with the arrow keys, and that may help make it easier for new players. I think the hitbox on the player to collider with planets should be smaller, so that they can sometimes narrowly avoid the planets if they are just far enough.

I really appreciate your feedback, I do think the difficulty should ramp up a little slower so people have more time to build up their skill.

I think your suggestions are really good. I think I definitely will implement the mouse aiming and I'll test out making the hitbox slightly smaller, probably will be a nice change!

Thanks for the feedback, I noticed you online. Hope you give it another shot too. Game gets more interesting as you go. The start is a bit bland looking but its really just there so you can understand the basics and practice the mechanics :)
