I liked it!!! It's a nice little game with simple strategy elements.

Very interesting idea! Love the pixely style, and quite fun to play. Perhaps could use just a touch more difficulty when you've been playing a while, but I almost felt bad letting it gameover so I could comment.

Nice concept. I'm sure with more time you could have improve it a lot. Adding sounds of course, but also having some goals, or at least a score system :p Good work!

Fun concept, missing any point beyond keeping them alive.

Nice graphics and feedback on planets. This is a concept that could fit well in an idle game mechanic. The game on its own lacks some kind of goal and the idea needs to be pushed further. But the realisation is good and there is no apparent bug.

Good job :)

A neat idea and shows restraint ( I would've complicated this to no end ;) ). Doesn't appear to be any kind of difficulty curve, though.

Played 3-5 minutes at second try, a shame that difficulty is same as on start and there is no score, so I can't boast of result here too :( But idea is nice and game is a bit addictive, so overall I liked it.

Cute little managing game, but it felt a bit random at times just for the sakes of difficulty. Maybe it lacks some sort of narrative or overall objective (except "Don't let them die")

The graphics were pretty good! The gameplay was fun for a little while, but it could've been a bit more interesting. Simple games are nice, but a bit more complexity later on would probably have helped this.

Minor points: - The ending was a little abrubt. - I didn't hear any sound. - I liked how the graphics of the planets changed as they died more.

Good entry. I do wish there had been some more level-type elements to it, or an increase in difficulty along the way. Overall, well done :)

I love the concept, the graphics and the moody sound. Some minor point, though: * It took me a while to understand that the numbers are what I have, not what I can pick up from the planet. * At the third play through, I got it pretty much figured out and stable. Maybe increase consumption over time so that it gets harder. Then all you need is a high-score server ;).

Good game with nice graphics and calm music. This game should be stressing with all the resource management, but the music and still background made it so calming.

Great game!
