This is a fun twist on the fish-pond/katamari/big-eats-little game. I like that your size is drained or gained just by proximity. I would say you probably would like to add some kind of particles to indicate movement, as with the nearly-static background it was sometimes difficult to tell. And maybe a bit more forgiveness on strong gravity wells and making it easier to escape. On the whole, good entry, nice work!

Alright so I spent a while flying around with nothing happening, but once I started finding other planets it was neat. The intro was a bit random and I am not really sure what I was doing but I got pretty biggish before getting very smallish.

Thanks for the game <3

The gam play is very nice, reminds me of agar.io and spore. But I really like the 3d graphics that those games don't have, I think it adds a lot. The intro was a bit much lol but it kind of gives the game a personality haha.

The intro gave me the shivers! Really nice choice with the music, sets the tone perfectly, and the game is a nice twist. I just wish the game explained a bit better what you are supposed to do / not do, but you get it sooner or later anyways. Good job!

It feels like the game is a relaxing experience so to speak, however, the is a score in the game, so maybe it doesn't need one?) Nice entry anyway!
