Not gonna lie, I don't get this game. Like, I don't understand what I'm "supposed to do". Or maybe there is no "what I'm supposed to do". This game can actually be pretty meditative (with the sound off :-D). It's definitely a cool concept - fly around space and planets and stuff, and explore things and such.
Awesome entry! I bumped heads with a couple of planets though haha. XD
i kinda love the sound design. enjoyed visiting a handful of types of space-bodies, getting a handle on the physics (neat that you can boost up to warp speed and then spin the ship around while maintaining your original heading, interact with planetary gravity, etc), and marveling at the wonders of procedural generation. thanks for sharing!
super cool, at some points though it didn't feel like i was going anywhere and judging distance is definitely tough. other than that, great submission. pretty fun to just doddle around and i was pretty mesmerized at what was going on with the screen as i approached a star.
I think I hit my head on distance planet. It's pretty neat, if only I could fly!
Also, I saw Uranus! 0_0
Really Awesome game, I really enjoyed playing, music is bit of... uh-uh but, otherwise its awesome.
Fun little experience! Am I correct that there isn't any way to go to the other planets (you just bounce off)?
FYI: You have a 28MB PDB file in your zip (100+ mb uncompressed) which is probably not needed, and is drastically increasing your download size :D
This is really cool! I wish the sounds were more than static noises. Maybe some calming music would helped for better immersion. Controls need a little time to get used to, but it's fine. Other than that, I must say, it's really impressive!
