At the beginning I thought it was quite fast and easy to dodge some of the bigger planets so you don't get eaten, but after reaching ~8000 you begin to feel really the mass of the planet and dodging becomes really hard. When a planet infront of me got bigger then me I just shouted \"no nonon ononoon\" haha. Sounds more dramatic then it actually was probably but it was fun anyways!  \n\nI think to further expand on the gameplay you could introduce objects like blackholes or suns which maybe transport you to a different location or change the type of planet\/star you are. Still very good entry, I enjoyed it! (The music was actually kinda good, even though it blew my headphones away at the beginning)\n\nIf you don't mind check also out my game: https:\/\/ldjam.com\/events\/ludum-dare\/40\/just-another-space-game","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"sgadrat","author_uid":"1014994","time":"2017-12-04T16:45:50Z","epoch":1512405950,"modified":1512405950,"text":"Iteresting, the difficulty is weird in a way that we want to retry to get it right. Basically, as a player I suspect that going the fastest possible (holding W) makes it for the other plannets to not grow as much as ours.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"TrolledWoods","author_uid":1063017,"time":"2017-12-04T18:00:47Z","epoch":1512410447,"modified":1512410447,"text":"Thank you for the great responses!

Nice graphics.\n\n**Cons:** Music doesn't match very well with the 'feel' of the game. \n\nStars in the background would have been a nice touch.

I actually had a lot of fun! I really liked how you worked the theme into the game, I think it fits very well.
