Now if you don't want to play my game (or it's too hard to finish) thanks to BrunoB i have a longplay video of it, that you can see in the link above.

Sadly I can't rate your game. It's a good mechanic and I really liked the audio. Well done.

Loved the visuals on this game. Everything was polished and well put together. The music was a nice light-hearted touch as well :) The mechanic is pretty cool and unique, I did find it a little bit hard to control at times - though you are a planet I guess! Maybe some sort of indication of your current direction/velocity might have helped this?

Great job!

Love the music and although I do like the art I couldn't rate it highly. Loved how you interpreted the theme.

Very cool, and very playable! The music is great, too.
But those black holes are really nasty. :-(

A bit short, but nice graphics. I love how at the start the dot from the 'i' is actually the player. Music is a bit weird, and doesn't really fit with the game :P

First of all, great presentation! I loved the title screen being a seamless part of the level. Nice font, nice colours, and fun music (Perhaps a "Click Remover" would have fixed those bits where you hit the mic while singing =P

Definitely enjoyed moving from planet to planet more than trying to get the green life since the controls were a little weak by my taste.

Overall, a nicely executed/polished idea with decent playability =)

Your humming music is so neat! And I thought the game was fairly addictive. It was definitely a bit rough for me to get the hang of how to be effective at it, but the mechanics were easy to understand.

Nice music and nice game but I think it difficult for me to control :( a bit

Lovely game with a nice polished look. It was pretty difficult to play but a good experience nonetheless. I like that you made it very easy to reset to the point you started from. I didn't play beyond the first set of planets though because I couldn't get enough life particles to make it through and it would probably take me hours to get through it.

Pretty unique creation, and I liked your interpretation of the theme!

Best music of all the games I've played until now :D

Takes a little while to grasp the controls.

Pretty game. Controls felt sluggish. Cute as the music may be, I kept wanting to turn it off, but found no controls for it.

Gameplay, awesome, fun, new, exciting...

But you win the award for worlds most annoying music.
It was actually WORSE That you put that music in there than it would have been if you had just not. Which is a really bad insult because I've been telling everyone their games need music... That being said, I wished there was an ending, but the idea was innovative and fun.

Thank you for this.

p.s. thanks for being the 1st commenter on my project Tiny Civilization.

Cool gravity mechanic. Frustrating when you accidentally go backwards to the previous planet. :)
I was getting "don't worry jump in the void" kind of message but didn't see anything beyond.

An innovative gameplay and cool sfx. The subtle game movements were good and light graphics suited the overall game mood. Just found the control lil tight. nice job!

I like the audio. The controls were a bit fiddly, but the mechanic is interesting.

Cool concept and really polished, but I think the controls could use a bit more tweaking to make it easier to fling yourself the direction you intend to.

Reminds me a bit of Angry Birds Space, but it's a great take on the theme. Very nice "music". Your game is extremely playable :) Congrats!
Pixelulsar
23. Apr 2012 · 22:28 UTC
It was an interesting concept, but it took me a while to figure out the controls, and still they felt a bit finicky to me. I know it's the way that the game is meant to be played... The music was different... (that's good)

Great job, especially with the mechanics. It plays just right, and when you succeed, you feel you deserved it. Well done!

I like the style! Was a little disappointed to get all the way to the end and then find out I needed more of the little ball things.
Overall, neat little game!

The controls were a bit hard to understand at first but once you get them they actually feel quite natural. The title and description within the level is a nice touch. I liked the clean art and really loved the music :)

Nice mood !

As i said on irc, a lot of "noooo..waiii..yeees!" - moments. Excellent controls aswell which makes it a nice experience =) Good work!

Clear graphic style and a solo barbershop quartet as background music.
And the game is fun, too. Nothing to complain about this one for me :)

Great idea. The controls really take some practice and probably could be best realized with an anlogue controller stick. The music ist awesome.

Very solid entry.

I loved the music. It was so different and totally appropriate and key to the game mood. It's stuck in my head and, for me, the most memorable part of the game.

The graphics were very clean and appropriate. Nothing was distracting. Everything was on point. The camera work was a very good bit of polish and queue to the player.

It made me laugh. I like that.

Over all, a very good entry.

Fun game! The music is charming, hilarious, and really gives the game a lot of personality. The core mechanic works great and is fun, but collecting particle life is a little too challenging imo. Overall and awesome game =]

Whoa, so many comments. I feel I've got nothing to add, besides maybe my own words of praise. Sometimes simple mechanics make a very interesting game and that's the case. I actually like the music, and definitely appreciate the effort. :)

24. Apr 2012 · 23:37 UTC
First off, awesome! I love the font you've used! The whole graphical style is really nice! Gameplay idea is good too, and pulled off quite well, except it has a few bugs :p

1. You can still control your dot after you've left the orbit. So, if you slow down enough, you can just float wherever you want to go by holding that direction for long enough!
2. The music... it was funny I guess :p Wasn't too bad, but it something a bit more mysterious / sciency sounding could've made the mood a lot better!
3. At the end.. if you keep pressing enter... you keep adding the gravity field! http://i.imgur.com/r8jL6.png I was the most beautiful of all the worlds!

Seriously though, it was pretty awesome! Good job!

Neat gravity game! It felt a little too tedious for me. I couldn't get the hang of aiming the ball properly and would always miss my target >_<

Simplistic visuals were really nice and the "music" was hilarious, the gameplay is a bit tough, it's hard to control the ball and the particles you are supposed to collect are so tiny that it's a real chore to try to collect them all. Besides that, this was pretty funny game.

this stands above every other game I've played today, except maybe Panopticon. Brilliant game-long tutorial that kept things fresh and a soundtrack that I now want to follow me everywhere. Only problem is that it's too easy to complete the game once you find out that you can control yourself in free space, albeit slowly

One of my favorite games, but needs more balancing, I found it too hard! I like the mechanic, from the screenshots and description I was expecting something like Orbital but it's surprisingly different! Kudos!

The controll could be a bit more precise.

Good job, dude!

I really enjoyed this game my only complaint would be I wish the green circles were a bit larger
LukeRissacher
27. Apr 2012 · 04:20 UTC
Awesome - one of my favorites. Simple but polished. Nice beatbox acapella soundtrack. And interesting gameplay mechanic - took me a lot of tries to get the particles (hard to exit orbit at the right time) but eventually got all but one (I think).
Law
27. Apr 2012 · 11:05 UTC
It's quite fun, though I think one of the things that really buzzed at my mind was just how difficult it was to control yourself when trying to orbit.

Still though, it's quite good.

As awesome as the music is, I don't really think that is appropriate for this game. I also loved the art style and the mechanics.

Liked the graphics, but for some reason found the music a bit irritating at times :/ Good work though in putting it together!

It was a wee bit too short, and slightly too slow-paced to my taste, but I liked the clear graphical style a lot! This could turn into something nice if you decide to put more work to it :)

Lovely progression here.
Vilborg
29. Apr 2012 · 22:36 UTC
The controls were a bit weird - using horizontal/vertical directions for a planet that is more angle/velocity makes it hard to get motion right. Other than that, a fantastic game.
R3ason
30. Apr 2012 · 03:29 UTC
Great idea! Was a bit hard at first to get controls down, but it cleared up as time went on. Music was fantastic! Thanks!

Should I complain because your gravity is actually not intuitive because real gravity doesn't work like that? Naah. Not reasonable. But I think it made the game harder for some people than it really is. Just FYI.
JonathanG
14. May 2012 · 00:02 UTC
This is a lot of fun! The graphics are simple but well polished, and the audio is funny :) I like how the title screen is integrated with the rest of the game. The physics take a while to get used to, it's very easy to fly into space by mistake. Also at the end of the game, you can keep pressing Enter and more and more atmospheres surround the tiny world :P
