Cool game! I love the orbit mechanic. But it was kinda hard to figure out what the point of the game is because there were no instructions when I hit alt + F4 lol.
beautiful art. impressive
A fine little agar.io inspired game :3
Great graphics. I love the luminous quality to the stars. This game has both exploitative qualities in searching for stars, as well as action features when dodging the red stars. I gotta say, my highest score doesn't quite compare to yours, but I had a lot of fun playing. Definitely put me in a relaxed mood (at least until one of those red stars came along). Nicely done.
Very zen. The mechanic couldn't be easier to grasp. The visuals were pretty to look at and it was satisfying to watch my orb grow larger while I tried to collect the other wisps of light that were orbiting around me. I couldn't come close to your 182 high score though. I topped out around 80.
Have any of you found and absorbed some green stars?
Nice game, it can be a hard scoring game or, by just not watching the score, a nice relaxing one! Thanks for that double experience in one gameplay.
@sgadrat didn't think of it like that, thanks for review!
@Villfuk02 Yes, it was a very interesting process at first to learn about the function of the green stars. Very nice mechanic. While I'm at it, I'd like to add that the particle systems are great, aesthetically, and in the case of the green star they serve a great purpose of being a subtle indicator of their location.
nice game, the music works fine, it fits the theme nicely, good job
Managed to get 92.7. Cool game
I love it, well done! Fun, extremly easy to understand, visually perfect, good controls, good balance. Really enjoyed it.
oh congratulation! Nice art! Can I follow it also on indiexpo? Do you have also a page there? This looks great! I looked for the games that used the #LDJAM but I don't find yours. So good luck!! I will hope to make a video about it!
@roy87 no, i don't have account on indieexpo, sorry.
OK the visuals are awesome, feels like some deep ocean microcosm.
The gameplay is cool and relaxing and it is fun dodging the red dots. It would be kinda cool if the speed increased more the bigger you are maybe?
A really impressive experience! Fantastic visuals, appropriate music, and the mechanics were really solid. It was very satisfying to slingshot red stars away from you, or frantically try and find a green star if you were being orbited by too many red stars. Had a similar mood to Osmos. My only criticism would be the lack of basic instructions; just having "The star follows your cursor" appear when you start would have helped. Overall though, really good game, well done!
Awesome, gameplay is really good, well balanced and challenging proportionaly to ball mass grow. Really enjoyed it !
Beautiful game ! Really good Mood. Well done !
Beautiful game, reminded me of fireworks. It was relaxing, and interesting how certain stars would only join based on your mass. It was fun to outsmart red stars, and interesting how green stars could save you but also caused a new challenge of red/white stars being clustered together. I felt like maybe red stars took too much out of you - it took a while for me to get to 40-50s but seconds to go back to 10s. Overall, cool entry!
Wow, this is really cool. I like the minimalistic graphics and the soundtrack just fits the game very well! Good job! I just wasn't able to beat your highscore... How did you get 182?? :D
This was great! I really liked the concept, very easy to pick up and play. Gets more difficult at a natural pace, very nice visuals too, though perhaps the trail particles are a tiny bit too bright in comparison to the stars, so you can get them mixed up... just nit-picking though. Well done! :)
I got my highscore mostly because of luck, but i also managed to get 157
