Game is really solid! Very well polished, I enjoyed it but struggled a bit because my eyes are bad with colours. I really liked the SFX for level complete, felt nice.

Very enjoyable. I really liked the core mechanic of the languages and finding matches. Sometimes it seemed that it was impossible to find matches close enough to the planet to save it? But it's very possible that's just me being bad :P
Definitely unique, good gameplay mechanics. The sound added as well.
What a cool idea with the languages. My only complaint is that the text on planets usually just seems like gibberish and is preventing systems from seeming truly cohesive. I understand that that isn't the point, though.
Very solid idea, quite challenging too.
Fun to play!, Unfortunatly I was unable to play it... I am colourblind :(
Took me a couple of tries to realise there was a time limit, but after I figured that out, it was very enjoyable. Nicely done.
Good use of the theme and a neat puzzle game.
It was hard to find the good path the first time but finally I manage to find a way to the target many times after ;)
Good realisation
The limited time to setup the links made me lose many points :P
The game is nice, well done!
Not bad, took me a while to figure it out. Very polished but it would be nice if the arrow was more pointy towards the business end!
@blindfox: they're aliens, they don't need to follow our language rules :p.
@freudian: sorry about that, not really sure what I could do about it.
Thanks everyone!
Very original concept, and the mechanics work quite well. Perfect idea for a game jam: simple but fun. Nice work!
Zooming out would be great!
Loved the music and the mood.
10 gameover, to find the GPS arrow in the corner. I'm getting old!!
The polish is very nice, I dig it.
Quite innovative and promissing game mechanic!
I really like the look of the procedurally generated levels. But I have the feeling that the difficulty of the individual tasks is a bit arbitrary.
On my first three tries or so, I failed after only one or two connections, but on my last try I made it to 20k points before I quit because it didn't seem to get any harder. I found it a little annoying that you had to mouse over a planet and wait a bit before you could see the languages of that planet. The maximum distance of a link could also be visually presented so that the player won't have to keep guessing if the link can be made.

Fun game! No audio, though on Windows 8 64bit. Took me a while to get good!
You sure you didn't mute it or something? I'm running Windows 8.1 64bit and the audio works fine. Did for other people too I assume.
Cool concept, but I feel it's a bit hard. Remember that the developer often finds the game easier than most players. That being said, I enjoyed it, I'd say this was one of the better games I played. :)
Great game ! Would be awesome on a tablet ! Sounds are good, the gameplay is simple and solid, graphics good, gratz !
Cool game once I got the hang of it, very well polished. The sounds were great and the music too, but that lead synth got very annoying after some time. My high score was six thousand something, I don't know it exacly because the game didn't show it. With some other features it could be even better. Good job!
Took me a while to get the hang of this, but finally managed to finish about four in a row. Nice idea.
polished and really challenging game. The music and SFX are really setting the interplanetary mood.
+1 for portability, so I can play in on linux ;)
Wasnt really sure what to do but I included it in part 17 of my Ludum Dare 30 Compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/02vIiZyi3-c
