I'm not sure how well it fits the theme, but I really enjoyed the music. The graphics were very minimal and stylish. It would be good to maybe let the player practise the mechanics on the title screen or something as it took me a while to get the hang of it but once it clicked the gameplay was really fun. :)","likes":3,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"puntocom","author_uid":"1186979","time":"2020-10-05T19:30:51Z","epoch":1601926251,"modified":1601926251,"text":"I liked the mood of the game, and the music with the vocals was really cool.

The music is lovely and a really good atmosphere!

The background music is great :D Graphics are minimalistic but I think it fits the atmosphere well and they are pretty polished.

I needed a bit to understand it (gravity was pulling me down, direction is about clockwise or anti), it's ok for me to discover the mechanics but I think that the movement itself could be also improved, and the combination of the two things (hard to understand and control) make it a little bit too difficult for the mood it sets you into.\n\nMaybe just have you bounce when you hit a rock or the planet instead of die could have helped. \n\nI've tried (alone so sad) how it is with 2 players mode and it could be funnier since it is that kind of game where you struggle and with friends the struggle becomes something to laugh at, but alone it is a bit too frustrating at times.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Curly","author_uid":"1225001","time":"2020-10-08T13:38:38Z","epoch":1602164318,"modified":1602164318,"text":"Wonderful visual, very beautiful music on background, i mean it was hard work for you, overall good, good luck!","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"honey","author_uid":"1080533","time":"2020-10-08T13:46:26Z","epoch":1602164786,"modified":1602259247,"text":"Just started the game and went here to give you five stars for the audio instantly, that music made my day!\n\nThe gameplay took me a while - I somehow get that I'm supposed to be collecting those bubbles, but I didn't know what to do with them (I didn't read the description), so I first tried to put one over the other, which didn't work, so I took it to the ship, which did work and I was very happy about myself being so clever :)\n\nIt took me a while to understand the gravity of the situation, but then controlling the astronaut felt pretty good and satisfying, in a souls-like manner all the damage taken was totally accountable to me :) I experienced a weird glitch, when my astronaut just disappeared on the left side of the screen, in still visible area where there was nothing apparent to collide with, so I assume that was a bug? Or an invisible black hole, as both space and black holes are black, so it cannot be seen? :)\n\nAlso I somewhat assumed it's gonna be endless but then my spaceship just flew to the right and left and I was brought to the main menu again, so I suppose I won? Didn't see any lives count, so I must have won, yeah? :)\n\nAnd once again, THAT MUSIC MAN!

The only part I had trouble with was the space person would go off screen and I couldn't see what was happening, maybe if the camera is focused on the sun, space person, and ship. Would also be cool if there were other gravity objects to loop around. Haven't tried multiplayer yet, but I wonder if there is one where a second player controls the ship, could be a fun addition.

The orbit is a nice subtle link to the theme.The dynamic colour was a nice touch too and not having defined levels but just increasing difficulty made it nice and fluid too. I wasn't expecting the extra obstacles so that was nice since I fully expected to get bored of just slowly going round the planet collecting things.  On that note, I did find it was a bit slow not being able to accelerate forward and mainy just upward but maybe I just wasn't very good at controlling him!
