Please note that there may still be minor bugs as the game hasn't been extensively bugtested. Reporting them would be appreciated!

The movement is really satisfying! Nice concept :)

Can't play windows games. :-(

Some way to resize the field of view would have helped, I couldn't really see where I was going after picking up tons of planets!

shivanhunter 2014-08-25 03:08

also, ditto sharpcoder's comment about movement. Quite fun.

Not sure if I've got a bug or I just don't understand how to play; There are only 75 circles in the game, and I can collect them forever without anything changing.

cy4n 2014-08-25 03:16

@lokijki - gotta go farther than where you start. the 75's should count as shields for the later areas

bealke 2014-08-25 03:38

This is really fun!

huntthewumpus 2014-08-25 03:38

Moving around and kicking other planets (are they?) through the world was so satisfacting :)

great take on the theme

frr171 2014-08-25 04:01

Interesting core mechanics - with a prettier skin, this could be a pretty awesome game!

cy4n 2014-08-25 04:10

Fixed a numbering bug, redownload if already did!

endesga 2014-08-25 04:25

Awesome movement controls! Love it!

oranebeast 2014-08-25 04:31

Didn't quite understand it but it was fun and the theme interpretation was top notch.

LOVE this mechanic. The accumulation feels satisfying in a Katamari-Damacy-ish way. I feel like there's tons of possibility here... your camera could zoom out as you take on stronger and stronger enemies. You could have different types of enemies which influence your growth. I'd definitely buy a more fleshed-out version of this.

cy4n 2014-08-25 04:59

@ianh thanks! I did plan the camera zoom out for this game actually, but with no time (and no sounds!) I couldn't put it in. Maybe I'll make a post dare version...hmm

It would be great if collected enemies were not only your armor, but also could shoot.

Overall at current state the game really feels unfinished. If it had some sound and music it would be radically different experience.

cy4n 2014-08-25 05:14

@dvdking they can! just, only certain types...

and yeah, totally agree

ViliX 2014-08-25 05:14

I love poking other ._.

mrjordan 2014-08-25 05:28

Chrome says the file is malicious. ._.

techblogogy 2014-08-25 06:41

Sorry, can't play it on a mac.

doubstract 2014-08-25 13:03

Best movement ever. Those 1000's look really big and deadly. Added to favorites.

ebolbe 2014-08-25 13:29

jsmars 2014-08-25 14:15

Really cool game mechanic and fitting for the theme, nice job! :)

burgerdare 2014-08-25 14:57

neat concept. I feel like the progression is a little unclear, and it would be nice to have an arrow pointing me in the direction of the next challenge. Fun game nonetheless, though.

kyru 2014-08-25 19:00

Fun game, could have used some sound. Good use of the theme.

oinkiguana 2014-08-26 21:28

Pretty interesting. Kind of difficult to get used to the controls at first, but by the end the controls don't really matter... My thing got so big it didn't fit on the screen, let alone at the same time as boss. Not sure if I killed it or not, but I'm thinking not. No sound, and graphics are alright, but the grid sometimes doesn't draw the last line on the right. Fun while it lasted, but eventually became mindless.

se1by 2014-08-26 21:37

Pretty nice, some Sound effects would make it fancier.

gaeel 2014-08-26 21:50

I became a massive ball 'o death so I couldn't see my enemies any more...

datacr4sh 2014-08-27 17:34

fun game! might have been better with a zoom-out key/function as you got bigger.

snicklodocus 2014-08-27 17:35

I love the movement mechanic! Collecting planets was really fun too. I wish there was some sound, but everything else was well polished. Great job!
