Awesome game! I love the Newtonian physics! Very cute planets.

Good writing and concept, really like the interpretation of the theme. More restrictions for number of asteroids, where you can throw from, etc, would go a long way but its a fun almost sandbox right now.

I like this take on the theme. I would have loved to have heard the brainstorming process.

"Loops, ok uh.. orbits? Planets in orbits? What can we do with that, uhm... knock them out of orbit? Yes, but why though... I know! They're going on vacation!" Genius, have a 5/5 narrative.

thats about how it went XD

the physics felt nice! was a bit confused about the correct planets at first

I really enjoyed the game. The gravity of the sun feels really good and but i am not sure my client feel good after i shoot them up ALOOOT. xdd 

Great Game^^

trust, me they are fine. completely fine. why else would the write good reviews?

I love concept of sending planets on vacation simultaneously destroying everything else.
Simple, fun and challenging enough.

OMG this is so funny, the reviews are wild :D

The asteroids may be a bit too weak compared to the sun’s gravity, but it was reeeeaaally fun to send the poor guys into each other XD

An amazing, really polished game, well done!

Fun gameplay.. really liked the work

Nice game! I may or may not have sent some clients into the sun... Some spawns felt a bit unfair but overall nicely crafted 

Developer

yes, all levels are completely random, I gave my best to prevent impossible situations but as with all random games sometimes you get unlucky

Very cool concept. Nice touch to give the bullets pull to the sun

What an ominous smile : )

Lots of billard like planet/star games in the jam and this one of the good ones. Lovely game <3

there even is one with the exact same name, glad to hear you like ours

Was a fun playthrough! Using gravity to slingshot planets where you want to go is a cool concept.

Submitted(+1)

Cool concept, feels like I'm playing pool with plants! The entire premise and death/fail texts were funny.

Planets need vacations too.  I learned here that I am bad at flinging asteroids and bad at billiards but I had fun learning that fact. fun idea and cool art. I really liked the idea of using a hat to show where it is off screen.

This was a very cute and fun game! These orbit games have been my favorite type in this jam so far, a lot of thinking about trajectory and how to launch objects at what speeds. This game has a unique take on all of that, and plus I just think the idea of planets going on vacation is funny. The reviews at the end of levels made me laugh, especially after accidentally shooting two planets into each other (oops!). Great work!

Submitted(+1)

Loved having to think about how to use gravity to my advantage. I think a few more restrictions and tools could turn this into a really fun puzzle game

Submitted(+1)

It was fun! Are the levels randomly generated?

Developer

yes, completely random

Nice work, cool concept.
