Nice game! It makes some good art after 5 minutes! (:
A very nice concept and fun game as result. The music is good too.
Good concept and well executed. Sometimes connections could be destroyed yet the planets they were supporting remained 'attached'. Aside from that I thought it was a very addictive and novel idea... and good fun too! Thanks!
Really enjoyed that :)
very cool! I liked the simple mechanics involved in building up my system. it was very pretty to look at after I had amassed a sizable amount of planets :)
Pretty good fun - seemed a bit slow, but I'm not sure there's much you could do to change that. Music sounded good!
Hi there... Interesting idea/toy as well as game. The pin function ? Love the sound too. Good job!
i like connected.
Really like this little sandbox and the visual effect you get after playing it for a few minutes with everything connected. Only criticism is as someone who tends to forget everything could use a little display on the main screen to show what planets get along.
Playing the game without reading the comment/description first, to see how the "first handling" goes, I must admit that I ended up confuse by the connecting mechanic.
Not in the connecting sense itself, but in how/why it appeared certain planet were connecting and how other weren't.
Reading the description afterwards, I got to see that there is also a "pairing" system. Nevertheless, this is not represented ingame for the player to learn by herself.
Other than that, the game feels like it "could not have an end". I must admit that I stopped playing before reaching the outer perimeter. It makes some sense in the mechanic, even though this perimeter could grow from close to the sun and "gain" diameter at each connecting planet/level of connection, allowing to build/expanding a structure in a meaningful way for the player.
Otherwise cool mechanics, nothing too original but nicely executed.
Congratulations in making a game and especially at your first attempt at LD !
Pretty much nailed it on the theme, and the game works as it should. Overall I liked it, although it felt like it needed a few more gameplay elements after you've been playing a while
Nice concept and execution. Somehow, it's really fascinating. Good job!
It really grows on you, nice game! I wish it speed up as it got along to make it more of a challenge but other than that was pretty sweet.
I feel like an artist playing this game :D
The idea is interesting, and there can be a way to develop it further. Fun game, although seemed to simple after several minutes of playing.
The concept is good, with some more mechanics, the gameplay will be enough varied to make a cool game. But I almost had a heart attack whith the explosion at the end in my earphone!
Good job anyway. I got a score of 388.
Cool little game - I like the concept!
Good job!
Cool concept. I do wish I could rotate faster, especially when the planets appears more frequently.
