cool idea! Definitely satisfying to play, and fun trying to keep the planets alive. It definitely did feel like it was hard to keep more than one alive at a time though, and I never fully understood how the score worked. It seemed like I lost so many points for losing a planet that even if I was able to get my score pretty high, it would just go back down.
very original idea! I ended up mostly focusing on one planet though, keeping more than one alive was too stressful haha
A very interesting game. I'm not very good at it, and I keep ending with a negative score, but it is very interesting. The alternating directions control confuses me when there are multiple planets, which is a major part of why I can't seem to get a good score in the game.
Simple but well realised mechanic really well presented :)
Fun concept, I liked the idea of slowly upgrading the planet over time by catching special asteroids, that was an interesting twist on the concept of just avoiding for as long as possible. Good submission, and I really liked the FX too :)
Well done with the simple yet refined game mechanic making a enjoyable experience while playing. would love to see some more variety, but overall well done for the jam
This game has quite a simple design execution and worked well in the regard:
Some good things:
Very simple, understandable game design that does not need too much to teach. Just survive, basically.
Main Caveats:
There doesn't seem to be anything that escalates the difficulty as you survive longer. The game only has a consistent, non-changing difficulty. You can consider starting the game much easier, and have more obstacles as the game progress.
When I first played this game, I thought that the blue orb in the center was the planet, so I kept trying to block the asteroids with my actual planets. XD
After figuring out that I needed to keep my planets safe, the game was fun and very intuitive to play. I like how planets can both be rotating in the same direction, or different directions - it keeps the gameplay fresh. I wasn't able to maintain three planets though.
Overall, nice game!
Really enjoyed it. Took a minute to get the hang of it but then it was really fun to play. Great atmosphere!

Beautifull game with a simple mechanic. Well done.
Really fun game concept! It took a moment to figure out what the objective was, even after reading the instructions. The visuals are also extremely pretty. Really well done!
I think it's a very interesting concept. I think it's hard to juggle multiple planets though and that they sometimes get killed on spawn before you can do anything. Other than that I enjoyed playing your game :)
Thank you. I thought about the need to remove the possible destruction of the planets during the spawn, but decided to leave it as part of a cosmic accident, it does not happen often.
Looks polished an great for having such attribution to the attribution of the assets used.
The presentation is very coherent and the gameplay is simple and clean. :)
Got 296 before I failed.
Easy to play and get into. I had some issues understanding what some of the objects was supposed to do, and I could almost never juggle 3 planets at once. It's a great mini-game and a nice spin on the theme.
To keep 3 planets at a time it's kinda tricky, but sometimes better strategy is to sacrifice weak planet. Btw nice score. Thanks for playing.
Super simple which adds to the addictive gameplay factor. Pretty graphics and solid mechanic. Wish there could have been more object types!
Yeah i had some ideas to add more objects (like satellites and spaceships), but unfortunately time's up. Thanks
Cool looking game. I like the simple controls. Good job!
Nice game. I like the graphics.
Thanks
Nice UI and graphics! Interesting take on the theme (connecting the planets). My high score is only like 200 but was pretty fun getting it
Thanks, nice score. :)
