Quite a fun game :D
I had the problem tho that the sound always cut off in the middle of the "Motherfucking Rainbow" :D one thing i didn't complete get was why i couldn't shoot my earth? away sometimes (maybe a bug?)
Besides that really an innovative concept :) great job :)

I like the concept. All the coloured orbs floating around makes for a nice atmosphere. and it felt cool, the way your character isn't really anywhere -- just like.. floating god orbs world. That sound byte playing over and over drove me nuts, though!

This was surprisingly fun. I really enjoyed the "space" that you inhabit as the player. The black orbs got a little annoying sometimes, but that wasn't a huge deal. I actually had no idea that this game had an ending until I won, so I think that this game could benefit from some sort of sandbox mode where there's no win/lose condition and you just get to mix and match parts. Solid entry. Nice work.

Good game! I enjoyed moving the planets around. The art was nice too! I think you were going for a funny juxtaposition of the "zen" game with the "Mother-" voices, and it worked, but for me the voice line got repetitive and was too loud.

Good job!

I Played this on Livestream Today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_6NTcovuI0

I left more detailed comments in the video, but the jist of it is, You have a really good core concept of a game that I think has a lot of merit, and the experience was really hurt by the "Taste the Rainbow" Meme.

Really cute game. Reminded me a little of Katamary Damacy. xD I liked watching the planet change as I added more stuff, but I had a difficult time keeping the black balls away. I did end up beating it, though. :D

Lol, taste the mother f**king RAINBOW!!! It's funny to build the planet! :)
That black ball so annoying, but I finish it! Nice work on planet construction!! And the music is relaxing.... But that sound when the black ball hurt something is... not relaxing ^^ Well done!

Nice game, liked the sound effects and general look of the game. Controls had me a little frustrated though, because it seemed like aiming was off.

Looks like a pretty cool concept, unfortunately I can't play it since there is no Linux build.
I like the visuals of the main game but I think the title screen could look a lot better and match that style.
