Fun game, Pretty addicting. Very simple but well made.

Graphics are nice and colorful. Very fun trying to keep other planets from taking all of your mass.

Saw it on Twitch... Looks nice!

Cool concept! Greetings from @drazil100's stream :)

Cool concept! Greetings from @drazil100's stream :)

Anyway this was a pretty great game concept. I feel that the pull the other spheres had on your particles was a little too strong but it was overall pretty fun to play! Thanks for sharing it!

Very cool concept! I had the same kind of idea for my game, but this one is much better executed as a core mechanic.

Great colors and visuals too. The loop gets a bit repetitive after I've been playing for a while, but that's really a niggling detail.

Keep up the good work!

Wow, such a cool idea. I really like the physics too. This would be a cool multiplayer game I think, in the Agar.io type.

Quite cool and a difficult game. The big bodies steal your particles really easily! :D I got 261 as my highscore.

Cool minimalist game, good sound and great idea, thanks for fun. Good job :D (sorry for my bad english)

This is a fun game with a good mechanic. The controls are on point. The music fits the game. Reminded me a bit of Osmos. Nice job :thumbsup:

Enjoyed it, found genuine hatred for the other planets, raged a little, and played some more. High score 93. I'm bad! Good work though, might revisit this just for fun.

Overall fun game. Agario kind of feel to it, makes you want to play again.

Really enjoyed this one. I have a preference for simple gameplay mechanics, and a good difficulty. Like others I found it a bit too easy to be striped of your mass, and not quite enough time to recover them. I also felt like standing still was the easiest tactics, because the mass doesn't flow too far behind you. Top score was 162. One of my favorites so far!

Feel free to Feedback on my game Sling Ship if you get the opportunity: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/38/sling-ship-search-for-a-small-world

Cheers!

Interesting Agar.io spin off, good game for Ludum Dare - minimalistic, easy to understand and quick to play but hard to master.

That was fun. Would be nice if having more mass meant I could steal from other planets though, I'm getting tired of being robbed blind! I'd also like it if my planet physically scaled as it gained mass, and camera zoomed out. Gaining mass would feel more consequential then, I think. Well done!

I liked the graphics and mechanics. It makes you want to play more.

doppelgunner 2017-05-01 15:27

Nice and simple game.

Highly addictive, simple and fun to figure out. After hours of play my score is still improving as I try out and hone new play strategies.

kantieno 2017-05-02 07:52

This could definitely be a fun multiplayer game! I enjoyed the mechanic a lot, it's real satisfying watching all the particles move around the screen. Good job!

Great game and I really enjoyed the gravity based game-play. Very addictive.

2017-05-02 21:56

I broke 240 points. Anyone doing better than that?

kleinzach 2017-05-03 00:39

Fun game, though a problem I often have with random attacks in games like this is you can too often get cornered and lose without it really feeling like your fault. The movement of the particles with the physics felt very good.

themadstrauss 2017-05-07 14:39

Great Idea. The game is simple but very very fun. Great concept!!! Well done :)
