Cool idea, probably much easier with a touch screen than with a computer mouse!

I should note that you can easily survive just by focusing on one planet. At least as far as I could gather.

This would be really cool on a touch device. :D
I found it impossible to keep two places alive with a mouse. :)

Yeah, I for the life of me could not maintain more than one planet for very long. Which was fine, as one planet was enough to keep the humans living.

Cool idea, but I also think it's impossible to keep two planets with a mouse >_<

jeffalisk 2014-04-28 17:53

Yeah, not really very playable with a mouse! But the idea seems like it would be fun on a phone or tablet.

As Armanky said, you can survive forever by just focusing one planet... Something's missing for the mechanism to be complete. Still, with some more work it could become a nice mobile game.

had trouble with the mouse on laptop track pad, but love the idea. Elegant design, well executed. Good job!

Very cool minimalist game!

Seems like this has some nice potential. Would love to see pixel civilizations and ships around the planets that migrate between worlds. Really liked playing it tho, thanks for making.

great style!

pedro-thiers 2014-04-29 05:23

the graphics are BEAUTIFUL! Feels kinda empty without music (I know its space and all, but still...) but I still liked it very much =]

Good effects and design, although it does seem like you can survive by focusing on one planet. :)

Neat idea! Could be something to play on a mobile device. :D

It's so hard to play it with my mouse! lol! it's very addictive

crazi456 2014-04-30 05:01

Addicting game. Very entertaining! Good work!

I've played until 60 milleniums, didn't find more to do. I liked the minimalistic style and slick presentation. A classy entry.

Nice concept, unfortunately I couldn't handle to keep 2 planets more then few seconds on computer mouse. Anyway I had a fun.

Hard but fun game! I included your game in part 6 of my Ludum Dare compilation video series! http://youtu.be/K5ATRciKj24

lowcade 2014-05-02 14:16

Good and fun game!
Simple and direct (your criticize about god was very interesting :] )
When the new world show up, I freaking out, it is To Hard!

mortus 2014-05-05 06:06

While the gameplay is basic and balance is almost nonexistent in this game, I still like the idea. Could be a fun game with expanded mechanics and some balancing.

frederickk 2014-05-05 23:22

Simple and clever concept, I liked it!

tobiasw 2014-05-08 14:18

Like others said, it was impossible to manage multiple planets even for a short while. An idea for improving this: Have planets lava grow at different rates, and change that over time (maybe only in short bursts), so that people have to pay attention to different planets at different times.

I liked the intro a lot!
