Really interesting game! Love the graphics. I included it in my Mini Jam 107 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

This game reminded me a lot of singing bowls, the playfulness of figuring out each different mechanic was really a child-like joy. I appreciate all the hard work that must have gone into this, it turned out really awesome and the story was deep as well. 


Great work!

I’m so glad you mentioned singing bowls, that was absolutely the inspiration for the planets! Glad you enjoyed the game!

One of my favorite entries for sure. The concept is very well realized and implemented, and fit the theme and limitation perfectly. Great stuff.

Very pretty game. I like that you could generally see the field of effect the spheres had by the background.

Love everything about this game! Great theme usage. Challenging puzzles that smart and unique. Awesome Work!

I got stuck on the very last level, so thanks for the skip button! Beautiful little experience, I really liked the 'hints' given by the story, if that was intentional. My only frustration came from not understanding the impact I was having moving the circles around, there was a bit of dissonance there. I enjoyed it nonetheless!

What an amazing experience! The mechanics were fluid, intuitive, and beautifully shown. 

The story in the background also added a layer of tone to the whole game that I really liked. This is a seriously great and enjoyable game. I have nothing else to add -- well done!

Unique idea which fits the limitation and theme perfectly

Really creative idea & implementation, I like the abstract story building in this one as well. I think this is definitely worth expanding on outside the jam with a bit more game feel to increase the satisfaction.

The first one I've tried (besides my own), and what a pleasant experience it was! Great idea, and executed very well. If you clean this up a little bit more I think you've got a really nice piece here :D
