one of my favorites so far!
nice work. i liked the idea but doesnt understand the theme in it .anyway this game is good
Well worlds are connected by death links and the people is also a link between worlds so we technically are in the theme :D
But I totally see what you mean ^^
Nice shot !
Love the mechanics, and really had fun playing the first two levels :)
I'll finish it ASAP :)
Good work. Some decent levels. The gameplay has potential, but some small things felt off, like the fact that you moved really fast towards planets that were close to you. Although it's more realistic this way, it was just very surprising, and often led to frustrating deaths.
Also, the "You died" was there for far too long. I like hard games, but I need quick restarts in order to enjoy them.
The stop function could have been on the spacebar or right click instead of having to click the planet you were going towards, since the mouse would often be hovering above some other planet.
But pretty nice atmosphere, cool basic idea, really neat interface design.
pretty fun :)
Nice game !
@ZeppelinCaptain : Hello and thanks for your comment ;)
I'm sorry about the death, the game is currently not optimized and use a lot of PC performance, on my PC is nearly instant but I know it can be a bit slow on some others, sorry about that =)
About the surprise of gravity, you can manage to nearly never be that close of planets, it was really intentional and part of the gameplay ^^
Finally for the space/right clic to stop I thought about it and I don't want it because it breaks the gameplay, in my opinion the fact we can stop isn't a good feature, it breaks the sensation of floating, I let it there because it's easier for a lot of people but when I play I try to never stop to don't break the movement :p
Thanks a lot for playing and for feedbacks =)
I really love the graphics style here! Good job!
My girlfriend will be so happy with that comment!! thanks :D
Brilliant job!
~funkeh
simple and fun idea. and agreewith the idea that the game is more challenging without "stop"...
(just a problem in my config (not 16:9 screen), the planets are distorted, I play in a world of eggs...)
Oh damn... Has I made it in 1980*1080 I made it to adapt to the player's screen for the game to be played on every screen, didn't think about the egg effect :p
Thanks for the feedback =)
Very good idea. I don't like this triangle design and the restart time is too long for me(I cant wait so long, I want to play...). But all together a great game!
Good work, fun to play, but an ability to stop moving towards a planet seems more lie cheating. Intentionally plyed without this feature, much more fun
Pretty cool! I Liked the simplicity, the gameplay got a bit frustrating at times but overall it's a fun game.
@ Maek : you can press R to restart a level to gain time :p
@ Shide : totally agree with you ;)
@ Yoni : what did you find frustrating in the gameplay? ^^
Interesting labyrinth, reaction game.
Found no bugs, good job.
Good work here, the gameplay is original and funny, graphics are very good too. Congratulations for you both :)
Nice graphics and music, I did feel like the camera and the 'curving speed' was working against me though
nice work. especially the art :)
The graphics here were indeed very pretty, and the death screens too long.
Also, I managed to complete the whole thing, though some levels were rather tricky (and yes, it was sometimes difficult to tell how close I can approach). At later point the concept, while initially interesting, started to wear off; I guess this game needs a bit more variety later. Leaving these aside, it was rather fun, still. ^^"
Simple and effective, very nice game.
This is really neat! Plays smoothly and I like the look. Restarting after losing a level could stand to be a little quicker, but it's not a huge problem.
Nice, simple graphics and gameplay. This is definitely one you can just pick up and play for a little bit and put down. Definitely has that draw to it. Very solid entry!
cool game, love the sounds and the strategy!
Nice game, weirdly relaxing and frantic at the same time. Really interesting game mechanic once you get the hang of it. The visuals and audio set a nice mood overall.
Super cool game!
Smooth controls and nice graphics!
Very awesome. The graphics and music work well together.
I've played a couple games this LD that are similar in concept , where the worlds are connected literally. Yours has been the most challenging so far, and for me that's a good thing! Good luck! Btw the graphics were cool. The planets kind of reminded me of Epcot in Disney World :)
This was one of the best games I tried so far. The graphics and music are great. The gameplay is solid and when you get the hang of it you can finish a level without stoping.
The game is hard but fair, the only frustrating thing I encountered was that sometimes the starting speed was a little bit to fast, but overall a great game.
Effective AND beautiful graphics. Original gameplay. Like it.
Simple, clean and fun. Awesome work!
Very cool puzzle concept! A bit hard here and there, but very fun to play :)
Nice polish, cool concept and nice music. Good job!
Really nice design!
cool game
wow. one of my favorites so far. the simplistic graphical design works perfect with the cool animation and sound effects. and everything supports the creative game concept. would like to soo more of this! :)
