How does your game fit the theme?
It's about building the universe. You throw planets. Every puzzle you complete is added to the starry sky.

fun puzzle mechanics! perhaps needed a little bit better visual language about the different planet types and resource amounts, though.
I would apprieciate a play & review of my game if you have the time.
Loved the music. Gameplay was fun, very interesting concept. Ran into a point where I couldn't progress once I got to the +2 cards, but up to that point I really enjoyed it. Congrats and good luck!
Interesting game. The concept of using cards to alter planets is really unique, it could be expanded upon to be really cool! I couldn't get past the medium-sized chaos planet level though, not entirely sure what to do, though that's probably just a skill issue.
Great concept and quirky writing, liked the game very much! I wish there were more named indications of what state the planet is, not just stats meters, but that's not a flaw, that's merely a suggestion, if you ever expand on the idea.
I though the idea, visuals and music were all really nice! there was one level, with the chaos planet, that I couldnt get past, Im not sure why. Other than that though, I enjoyed it!, I though the touch of how all the past puzzles you can see in the sky was really cool and added to the building the universe idea, well done :)
Great take on the theme! I first assumed it was going to be more geared towards a card game but it turned out to be more-so an interesting puzzler instead. The text that showed up each level were both helpful and funny, and the gameplay itself was engaging :) I did have to restart quite a few times though which sometimes broke the planets haha.
Interesting concept and nice writing :) I like the idea of a puzzle game where you build planets with different attributes.
Well done on your first game and game jam!
Very interesting puzzle game! Would be nice to see what goals were required to complete the current level, but otherwise well done!
Loved the texts haha I could see this been really fun to play, with more types of cards and things to do to the planets. Definitely has potential :)
An interesting idea with satisfying gameplay. Finding the correct order of cards to achieve the intended result felt very good, and the status bars are very helpful for figuring out the required steps. I did end up restarting the final level a few times because I had forgotten what the required planets were, so a button to view the dialogue again or some kind of checklist on screen would be nice. Overall though, this was very fun to play and
Very fun to play with planets! I like these explanations that give no info
Nice concept and I appreciate the nonsensical explanations ^^
Like others, I sadly got stuck at one level which even after several restarts didn't let me play my cards, but until that it was fun!
Super interesting game concept-- would definitely have benefited from more factors (maybe stuff like gravity or... idk im not a space nerd), but overall, enjoyable puzzle game! I also think it would have benefited from some more guidance on what the solutions were, such as just a picture of what the final planet should be or something. Other than that though, fun! If you guy have the time, we'd also appreciate if you took a look at our game in turn < 3
This is a really cool game concept. I love getting to be an omnipotent creator of life. I think the game could use a bit more explaining on what each level is looking for. I was able to complete the chaos planet level, but truthfully, I'm not entirely sure how I did it. At it's core, though, this is a really interesting game with a lot of possibilities to expand upon!
I only got through a few puzzles before I got bugged from using any cards on the planets, but I like the concept and enjoyed the puzzles I got to play!
