Relaxing Game!

it was really nice to make my own solar system!

Cool game, I really enjoyed it! But I felt frustrated when trying to combine two things — sometimes they don’t align properly or just won’t combine at all. I ended up stuck on Level 1 after spending about 30 minutes trying to figure it out. The idea is really cool though, and I feel it has a lot of potential if you polish it more.

Developer

Thanks for playing.  The combination mechanic does have that bug.  I've checked it, and it's not a collider issue, but something else.  We just need to investigate a little further.  We've also added a little better feedback when the objects are merged.  Those are ready to go when the uploads are open again.

Aesthetically very elegant, I almost gave up on the menu trying to find planet 01, but I didn't regret finding it, a very pleasant experience, nice sound effects to listen to

Developer

The menu is something we're working on.  We tried a few things and it will be up when the uploads are unlocked.  Thanks for playing!

Getting it to start a game was a bit of a chore. There is nothing that screams HEY CLICK THIS ONE TO START OUT!!! But once I got into a game it was fun, very zen. Would have been even better IMHO if it had some type of gravity/slingshotting mechanic, like grab and pull to send this flying the other way type thing. Overall solid 4 stars from me.

I'm glad you found some joy in it! I agree, the main menu could use some tweaks, the brightness/color balance needs some adjustment to highlight the different zones. Adding force based on how the user interacts with the orbit (or from other planets) would be a fun touch too, thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for the feedback.  I like the idea of the gravity slingshot.  Maybe add something like the speed of a flick in any given direction sends the planet flying.  Also in the engine I dimmed the clickable stars a bit and added an indicator that show the clickable star.  We wanted to keep the galaxy look to the rest of it.

I thought it was the best game, but a small nuance appeared: what should be done after creating a real star?

Thank you for the kind words and for playing! 

After reaching the sun, more material types appear and more combinations are possible.
Hint: Dust + Plasma creates an Icy Fragment that can be used with something to create asteroids ;)
