Lovely concept! I included it in my Ludum Dare 38 compilation [video series](https://youtu.be/5I8aoDLW98E), if you’d like to take a look :)

Thanks! ...sorry you fell over, heh. That kinda breaks the game. Physics are hard, so I decided to slap a reset button on there. Idk if patches are allowed though even though judging hasn't started yet, so I'm going to keep the original on itch, too.
I like the idea. Took a while to figure out what I had to do, but the game was pretty fun.
Very cool.
I found at the planets near the end of the solar system were passing each other much quicker than near earth and the passing was a little annoying if you're standing near the top or bottom of the planet and want to talk to someone, you find yourself on the next planet.
I did like the interactions between the planets, thorght that was pretty cool
Congratulations for your first game! It's cute and the art is neat. I've found travelling from a planet to another too hard though. Keep on it!
Yeah congrats on your first entry! Nice little something here, not quite sure what to do in game but looks cool!
Original way to move and funny story. I hope you keep doind games for Ludum Dare or yourself! :)
This is a fun little game. The planet transitions were really well done, and I liked the puzzle mechanic. It did feel a little tedious to traverse the whole system though. I forget which planet it was, but one of em was moving so fast that I actually swapped planets a couple of times before I got out of the trigger fast enough. Minor things though, overall it was really good.
What a cute little game! I really liked the graphics, they matched the mood perfectly :)
I did find it needlessly difficult to travel to other planets though. They flew by so quickly I hardly had any time to click on them! My only solution was to spam the click button on the edge of the screen and wait for a planet to fly by, but I really felt like that should not be neccessary.
Other than that the game worked fine for the most part. Of course sometimes you fall down, but I actually found that it added to the cuteness and humor of the game :)
Interesting concept and nice story.
Very interesting concept, wish there was more to do though. I think the speed at which the planets come and go is good IF you could do something while you were on the planet. Even something small like jumping. But I can definitely see this being awesome with some sort of small mini game you could do on each planet. 10/10 for concept!
Good job on your first LD entry. Really enjoyed the game, nice concept and fun to play.
Moving from planet to planet was a bit awkward and I wish the people stood on the sides of the planet because sometimes I was trying to talk to a person and ended up on another planet. Concept fit the theme well. Not bad for your first game in unity by yourself, well done.
I like the game. It's only weird that when I jump to other planets I somehow just fall over, which I think is a bug that needs fixing. But still, a very entertaining game :) Here is my game: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/38/fixville
Brilliant. Reminds me of the Little Prince. One thing that I would change would be to clear up the movement between planets. There's no directions on that.
This is a cute little game. I like the gameplay idea. The graphics are simple, but I like them very much and they work well throughout the game. Sounds and music would be a nice addition to the game and I also think that switching between planets should be sort of an active action, like holding a button to switch when a planet is nearby. I couldn't find any bugs. :) Good job!
I like the game. My only problem with it is, that it is a little bit short, I think you should develop it further
Very cute! The puzzles weren't exactly puzzles, there was a lot of backtracking, and it honestly didn't look very good, but it left me with a good feeling, and that's what matters
I loved cheering up Venus! Very innovative design! I like the planet hopping mechanic. The only suggestion I have is that when I was about to give the flower to venus I got picked up by mercury and had to go back. maybe put the characters a little bit out of range of the pickup zone.
I liked it, although the constant backtracking made it a little tedious. Maybe travel could be shortened by warping, or some other method of travel so there's no need to sit in one place waiting for the next planet to zoom by?
It is pretty well made, considering your first entry. keep up the work.
