Interesting idea, but the planet keeps flying away from the camera and i can`t see it anymore, and as i din`t find any reset button i`ve had to reopen it quite a few times until did the orbit. Nice concept, you could work more on it and get something cool.

@greon thanks for the feedback. I went ahead and added a reset option in the pause menu and added reset when the planet goes out of camera view.

It sort of feels like the whole jam was spent on what little visuals there are. The concept is barely there, and the lack of feedback when it crosses the line makes it hard to tell if we're doing what you expect, and makes it even harder to want to try and even get the thing around that whoooole big ol orbit. Sorry man, but it's just not there.
Though short, the concept itself is really fun and could definitely be expanded upon to make a full game. Nice work!

The background is really pretty.
Interesting concept. I could see a lot of potential with a bit more time.
Interesting mechanic! Controls are super-simple (which is a good thing) and I was able to win the game after a couple of runaway planets! Would be great to see this expanded on a bit more, as the core idea seems solid. Graphics are pretty, too. Keep it up!

It's simple, but not bad. A bit more difficult than I was expecting.

@nisovin Thanks! So maybe it could be broken into multiple levels and the first level could be a little easier?

@ketura Okay, I understand. I've got some ideas for adding feedback when entering the green line (habitable) zone that I think might help. Thanks for the feedback!

I think the gravity formula is pretty wrong in this game.

This gameplay may grow into something big

simple but interesting
Original idea. However, I do not see how it related to the theme. Also, a feedback for when you are doing the right thing would be nice. Good work overall!
