Rope a Planet by Claes Persson

made by Claes Persson for LD30 (COMPO)

Navigate your little spaceship and connect worlds/planets. You connect the planets by crashing into a planet with the spaceship, and then crashing into an adjacent planet. A connection is then formed. Connect all the planets to complete the level. There is a time limit.

Control the spaceship with the arrow keys or W,A,S,D.

Written in Typescript (i.e. JavaScript) with the Phaser (http://phaser.io) framework. Tools used; Brackets/Atom (can't decided which is better), Adobe Photoshop/Illustrator, and bfxr (for horrible sound effects).

That ship can be a pain to control... 7000 was my best, because the planets were all close to each other that one time...

Decent effort - Shame there isn't more levels and some challenges in there.

It's a bit simple, but a nice try! If only you could add some more planets with more time limit, so second level is 4 random planets, 6 connections, 30 seconds etc :)
And I recommend jfxr it just sounds better :) http://jfxr.frozenfractal.com/

It would be nice if the difficulty increased. But it was a fun small game!

Hey, you finished your game! And it works!
Fun to play, but obviously way too short. :)
