Very, very pretty! I didn't quite grasp the full concept of the game (as you said, it's in a fairly unfinished state), but keep at it!

Unfortunately did not do anything when I tried to run it. Process stayed open for a little while and then closed.

Ran it from the command line too, just to see if there was any output (there wasn't).

I played a game sort of like this before where you jumped between planets and walked around them. It was fun so this appealed to me a lot. It was good too, nice job.

Looks really cool, I love the clouds! >_< Hope you manage to finish it sometime...

@D3zmodos we sure will! All it needs is balancing evolution trees and ending scenes/triggers.

Let me put words to this game... are you telling me that we can model our universe and choose if we want dogs/wolves in our planet or cloudy-sheeps?
why if years pass like eons and eons, the black Little white Riding Hood remains with the same appeareance? and is he or she ...even it? a god? XD
love this game, ha the potencial to be so many things, it depends on the sound, music, and other features you may add ;)
check out my game, is about planets too, and some dark also :)
Would love to see this in XBox360

I'm new to LD, but this is the kind of thing I like. I can't really explain it, but while I meditated it looked like sheep were mating with wolves, and when I went over to a wolf it was having a pee...

Would have liked some sound, but, nice effort, and proper bonkers... :)

I like the graphics and the concept, but I cannot quite grasp the mechanics. I can only meditate and kill things?

killerbug 2012-08-29 18:01

@Kumquat That's right. Our initial design was a comet coming for the planet, which would put a time limit on the game. During that time, player would have to meet certain conditions (evolution combinations, population), which would help protect the planet.

Nice game. Just one point - returning from meditation in initial point, may better return in place where you start meditate.

Uh, it's interesting and looks nice, but it isn't much of a game really from what I gather.
Also some music may have made a huge difference.
