Showing as a white screen for me.

@Dx724: That's weird. I found it working on several computers (all windows 7, though).
The game does need a good computer and a (browser with a) recent version of Flash

Nice idea. A bit laggy when changing wind direction. Keep it up!

For me workd in Chrome with Linux.

The game... i can't find the objective of the game. Maybe more clear the tutorial at the beginning.

Anyway. Good Job and congratulation for your game.

I enjoyed the physics and changing the direction of the particles. Cute story too. :)

pretty cool idea. loved the story in the beginning. got me hooked

Awesome game. Idea very well executed.

Though I had no clue how to actually win, I had a blast just flying around.

Nice idea. I enjoyed checking the particle flow from far... I happened to have a background music "Peace of Mind" (by incompetech) playing... and I think it fit really well :)

The game is tough. Drawing those symbols is really difficult. I'm not sure but maybe something like "dropping" points that affect gravity would help drawing the symbols.

Would be also nice to have a better indication about what exactly I need to draw.

If you want to expand, you can add another planet there to affect things... and then third one, and some meteors and whatnot.

Nice entry. Tough but different from any other so far.

Interesting mechanic! Quite hard to figure out how to 'make' shapes... a slight tutorial-ish thing would help. I just hope the universal shape for love is triangle? O:)

Moody!

Great mood for this one! I gave up after a while - I didn't really manage to make much headway. A pity too, I would've liked to see that particular love story play out...

I liked both the graphics and the music and the concept is just adorable. As well as being a take on the theme I could've never thought of - really cool! : )

On my first try, I had absolutely no idea what I was doing, and all particles got stuck on the edge of the planet. And I had my doubts about your game having a win condition.
On my second try I read your tip about gathering all particles in an orbit and that you actually DO have a shape recognition win-condition, so I tried again, and after many small nudges to quantum space at least I got something like "Not quite right, but you are getting there".

Unique concept, but incredible hard.

Apologies to all:
It turns the game was unwinnable at the state it was in (some last minute edit that I didn't test).
I fixed it, tested it, and it's now playable.

Sorry!

sbarrio 2014-08-31 19:23

I just enjoyed flying around arranging the particles any way I wanted. I really digged the atmosphere and mood of it :)

Great work!

Love the concept, solid entry!

nicepenguins 2014-09-07 16:08

Wasn't expecting this, WoW ! Love the story, the mood and the music ! The gameplay is cool but i'm not patient x)

commanderstitch 2014-09-08 02:28

Wow. this game was interesting. Never seen anythinglike this. YOu were right about it being hard though, very hard. :D Not sure if i igot the right shape. Mostly the particles would get allgrouped up together. needed more arrows on the bigger picture, maybe toggleabele arrows? :D

depp 2014-09-08 03:09

I got "not quite right"... but I don't quite have the patience to continue. This is a great concept.
