This game is so AWESOME. I really can't explain it. Music and sounds are excellent to!

This game is so AWESOME. I really can't explain it. Music and sounds are excellent to!
Looks great, but its a bit hard to click so precisely
Loved the music and atmosphere, very well done!
The controls were hit-and-miss with me. Sometimes I was able to drag a star, sometimes I wasn't.
Thanks for the feedback! I've adjusted the description to address the situations you both are experiencing (one zoom controls, the other rules for connecting stars).
Nice. A bit hard to accurately click.
wow. with only two buttons you made a lot of interesting controls. nice work.
Less of a game and more of a poetic piece about your social connections. It was great. Very soothing.
Quite interesting. I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/XuTLfsOkf7k
Great concept, also the mood is really really nice :)
I cant get the webGL one to load, the concept looks awesome though
Interesting experience. Really nice audio. Sometimes the hover description wouldn't work. Would like to know what the other lines that appeared were all about (other players, random?)
pretty music
Unity's WebGL implementation is spotty. Sometimes Chrome will just freak out about it and it will keep telling you to use Firefox. This one also takes quite a bit to load. As for the hover descriptions, they always do work, but if you get a star with no description, that's because of various generative fails (it tried to generate a used word too much, the list it's pulling from ran out of words, or other things). I decided to leave the empty star in, but connecting to an empty star doesn't add more stars.
Finally, the other line is randomly generated, and happens more often if you are connecting far away stars. I'd love to let it be other players interfering, but I wasn't about to figure that out for Ludum Dare.
I really liked the idea. I wouldn't call it a videogame, I don't feel I am playing, but feeling very curious about it. Anyway, music is beautiful and, again, the idea is really cool. Cheers!
Had to download the game because I was unable to click the first star in the web version (I don't really know why?)
Anyway - very, very nice game (: It feels a bit raw, but it's rather relaxing and definitely makes you think ^^
Strange, interesting idea. For some reason the clicking had a signifigant offset for me, when trying out for the first time as unity webgl was telling me to disable the cursor. After clicking disable, the clicking was accurate inside the game, but the cursor escaped before the border of the app.
Hmm... That sounds like you didn't allow it to disable the mouse cursor, or you clicked the x in the corner (perhaps inadvertently). But it might just be something about the actual request on certain browsers. As a side note, if you see your system cursor at all, then the disable didn't go through (I think clicking inside the webgl box will trigger the logic for recapturing the mouse cursor). The system cursor and the in-game cursor are unlikely to match up at all, so I had to disable it, but this is annoying on browsers since it (very properly) makes sure you want to be deprived of a mouse cursor. Without making my own cursor, I couldn't reposition the cursor after rotate or zoom, and such actions would be limited by the window size.
Nice idea! I like it a lot! I would appreciate some restart button or something like that? I wanted to make all kinds of constellations and I always had to restart the game... Also the stars start to disappear really quickly, when I tried to read the words, they started to fade and I panicked... Ox)
I've made a let's play video if you want to check it out:
