Simple, challenging and fun!

Cool game and interesting orbital mechanic. I think it would be cool if the comets were affected by the stars' gravities (but would also make it more difficult).

Nice concept, and really addicting game! Difficulty feels just right too.

it is not as easy as it looks like... tricky trcky. I like the game... after you played once you know how it works and you will beat that game. Nice

Swinging both stars to dodge comets captivated me! If you continue to develop this, have you considered animating the comets as looking dangerous?

This is a very nice entry. I think it could be improved by either having a stop rotation function or by having the planets continually moving - of course one way making it easier and the other harder. I only played the heavy mode for a little bit, but I really liked the feel of the controls. It made it seem more like you were trying to push a planet.

Good game this one. I like it a lot and it is actually a very playable game. Nice one!

Surprisingly fun mechanics. I think it is well executed, although some sounds would have been nice =P

pretty cool concept, and good difficulty, but there's not a lot there. neat though!

Nice game, congrats!

Simple but complex, well done.

A really simple idea that makes a really fun game. Some sounds, better graphics and maybe other modes would make an great addictive game.

Nice and simple mechanic that can be surprisingly challenging! Great job!

I like it. It's quite simple but in theme, easy to understand and with a good level of difficulty

Fun challenge! Nice and simple aswell.

My first instinct was to crash into comets to protect the center planet. Wasn't hard to figure out out how play. Very challenging but a neat idea.

torvik88 2014-09-08 18:33

I like the concept and the fact that is simple yet challenging. Very well done!

I played three times but I couldn't get more than 70% in arcade mode. Mechanic was cool, connected to the theme and fun to play. Perhaps you could do a game mode in which the more you move the faster it reaches 100%. Good entry!

The controls are a little slippery and sometimes unresponsive. I got some used to it, but I had some fun with a spacy version of dodge ball with circumnavigation.

sbarrio 2014-09-11 21:15

Really enjoyed the mechanic. Took a bit to get used to the controls but that is part of the fun :)

Great entry!

Hi t4u, I have updated my game so now it is playable in HTML5, as you asked in comments. I hope you like it.

Good game
