That was a pretty relaxing experience~ Nice and slow, moving around and collecting stars and asteroids and what-have-you... Almost therapeutic! It's hard to see the progress you're making, though, as there's no other object of equal mass to the sun to compare its progress, so sometimes it feels like it never ends. Still, a beautiful game!
Ooooh, this looks so good; I love the screenshots! But I'm a Mac user, so I can't play your game! Do you have any plans for a Mac port?
I really enjoyed the graphics, ambient music and just the all around relaxing style of the game. My only complaint would be that the controls felt too.. I don't know, instant full speed and instant stops felt wonky to me. But otherwise a pretty solid entry! -Bliss
This game is a good example that you don't need fancy graphics. The atmosphere is really relaxing and nice, due to a nice soundtrack.
You move a little bit slow, but maybe that's a nice change of pace. It was really cool to see some "lights" being caught up by the suns gravitational pull, giving you some more variation of things to collect.
The effects looked nice, including the ending screen, giving you more of a sense of accomplishment.
The sound effect for collecting the stuff is rather soothing too.
It was a small bummer that i always had to wait for the particles to float into the sun.
Overall a pretty nice experience.
