Simply gorgeous game! There's something strangely majestic about the way he slowly rotates when thrown, seemingly ignorant of the exploding sun chasing him down and his imminent doom. Great sound effect on failure as well.

Interesting concept for the theme, and the graphics are very good

Not easy but good concept :)

Good graphics and audio!

I'd suggest making the colliders of the planet larger, to count in the gravitational pull.

Also, there's an exploit where you can launch horizontally and you'll always hit a planet (maybe away from the expanding sun, giving you more time / infinite time to act)...

@steffo sun gets faster when you are further so it should be always near behind you. But yes you are right and i think i will work on that. Thanks for the comment and good words :)

Definitely one of the most refined games I've played this ludum dare.

Lovely game! The models are all wonderful! Music and sound effects did a great job at creating an intense tone. Game concept was very original and fun. The score UI could look a bit better but the title screen looks great. Awesome work! :)

Graphics and audio of this game is awesome, I love them! One thing I would change is movement, cause planets are rotating too fast for me and jumping is a little bit unpredictable, but otherwise it's really nice game. Keep it up!

Great job with the opening. Liked the art-style. My problem with the gameplay was that it was too hard to know exactly it was going to go after you jump from the planet. I would make it a little easier because I was over or undershooting 90% of time. Maybe make the rotation of the planets affect the accuracy and make the starting planets slower so that the player can get the hang of it.

Beautiful gfx and overall impressively done, even for jam. Loved it even tho I didn't make it through more than 6 planets. ><

Gorgeous graphics and simple working gameplay. I found that I could bypass many planets if i managed to time my propulsion such that it goes straight. I think thats the best method to get the highest score in the game :).

Amazing graphics! I liked how each planet had its own unique look. The gameplay was a little difficult for me, I could only make it to 5 planets. I suggest adding some effects like dust or cloud particles when the astronaut lands on a planet.
