Though there's not much to the gameplay, it's absolutely visually stunning! Super impressive!

Cool game! The mechanics are a bit unclear and it takes a lot of trial and error to figure it out, but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty fun!

Really charming game. It almost felt like it was set up for VR

Visually impressive! I just didn't understand what was I doing besides playing tic-tac-toe haha

The aesthetic is super nice I love the audio and visuals but it seems like there was an endless stream of missiles keeping the sun at full size and none of my actions had any consequence (other than opening and closing the doors)

Visuals are great! I think this game needs some balancing in terms of "Delay the Inevitable". It felt that it's super easy to keep sun burning - there is literally a button that makes it max size..

Great vibes, the music and visuals were top tier. Well done for being the first game in the jam I've played that's brave enough to fully commit to the theme without just escalating the difficulty. The buttons themselves clearly had a lot of thought go into the look and feel, they stole the show. I'm at a loss as to how you actually beat the tictactoe, I drew over a dozen times :/.

Fits the theme extremely well, turns "the inevitable" into not pressing the button to keep playing, whether out of choice or getting distracted. Not particularly fun, but it forces introspection while playing, putting you in the shoes of an AI who is now questioning if they should simply just stop keeping the solar system alive.
