Great game, especially love your take on evolution and the atmosphere is just right!! I think the mechanic of getting a new planet after your first one fully evolved was genius, making the game harder but also working as a 1UP. That said, music was a tad too loud, and it took me a while to figure out that only left and right mouse movements matter :p

Thanks! yea we tried to hint the controls in the tutorial screen. You can also tap fully evolved planets to invert their orbit. Thanks for playing!

Original and beautiful game

Great to see this original and effective movement mechanic in the jam. Combined with the ethereal audio and super art style (inc. skull asteroids :) this was a lot of fun to play. I did pretty well:

Really interesting and cool idea! I've never seen a game mechanic with orbit distance for movement. I really liked that.

Fun game, original concept. Meteors should be a little slower IMO

I love the chill vibes. Made me take a deep breath, then exhale quickly as I got hit by a skull meteor!

Man this was hard but really good! The aesthetic is amazing, the game was easy to understand and the music was a great fit!

I like it. The music was relaxing and the difficulty wasn't too high. It feels like a fine-tuned and polished game. Well done, guys. You could deploy this game on Android.

Keep making games.

Nice and hard.

Really fun game! I liked the changing soundtrack as you got more planets.

I really like the visuals and the music is great. Very relaxing. The gameplay is unique and really fun. The only problem I have is that it's a bit too easy to keep one planet alive and a little too hard to keep two. The best strategy for a highscore seems to be just focusing on one planet and letting it grow slowly.

But overall, an enjoyable game.
