@Rybar, I thought about adding a little arrow showing the current vector of your planet, but I thought it might be more confusing because the other gravitational forces largely invalidate it.
I love it; the controls feel great for the most part. Wall-jumping didn't feel right to me, and i think it's because you train the player to rely on the momentum of the character, but that momentum doesn't exist when wall-jumping.
For example, if I change directions quickly on the ground, I press the key before I actually want the character to change direction, in anticipation of some sliding. When wall kicking, I found myself doing the same thing, pressing the opposite key as I contacted the wall. But if you aren't pressing towards the wall when you try to kick, you just fall down.
Great job on the game!
Man, I really enjoyed this. I would love to see expand on it in the future.
The core mechanic is just so satisfying!
