The game looks really nice but its not easy to connect the planets nor tell what the benefits/loss will be from doing so. Some more information or maybe some different way to connect the planets would help. Its a very interesting concept and the UI looks really good.

Unique game, but found it difficult to see the results of creating trade routes with planets. But this looks promising!

You could pause the system planet's rotation while it is selected, maybe, or use arrows to select a planet, and it is not clear what those routes affect.
Nice graphics and audio btw ;)

Do you guys plan on a linux build? It looks interesting.

@blurryroots I'll go throw one together now :)

Very cool idea, but you really need some kind of visual cue or instructions for creating the trade routes. Mouse over feedback or buttons would have done the trick.

Otherwise, very nice graphics, music and aesthetic :)

Pretty game! I had a hard time understanding how to perform trades. Do I click on a different planet when it's zoomed in? I couldn't form any lines between any planets. What does trading resources do?
