Managed to complete it in the end! Couldn't figure out what was going on until I noticed the small hint that appears in the top right, which made things a whole lot easier.
Pretty hard, but I managed to beat it the third try (with some lucky guesses here and there). I wonder if the flashing planets were intended? The sound effects were top notch :)
It took me a while to understand what was happening and what the goal was. It was definitely easier when I noticed the small text at the top-left corner! The initial "sorting" that is done before the level begins took quite a while on some levels, to the point I thought it was stuck in an endless loop or something.
For a compo entry the planets look nice and the sounds are great! And for such a simple mechanic the game is surprisingly hard! Overall a good game :)
haha really weird game but I like it! Not really sure what to say though. I never played anything like it before so its definitely unique! Good concept with possibilities. Not bad :)

Menu music made me laugh out loud. Pretty addictive but hard at the start
Interesting game. At first I thought the order of the planets in level 2 was the order your supposed to click the planets in, then I noticed the messages in the corner. Sometimes it seemed that the gameplay was pretty much trial and error but was a little addicting all the same.
Nice fun entry. I like this kind of game, although sometimes I had to guess, and I'm still not sure what the reasoning is in the level before last. The sounds effects are hilarious. Good job! (I didn't notice the message in the corner until I read one of the comments, because the game was too big to fit on my 13" laptop screen, so the top was cut off while I was playing)
Nice game, I spend a good time playing it. And I couldn't find a more humorous soundtrack. In firefox had to go up and down with the scrolling bar.

Innovative brain puzzle! The subtitles could be more to the fore, as it disappears quite quickly and the font is small. What's up with the particles, because they were not needed at all, to make it harder? Some upbeat music would fit well with this. Good job!
Not sure why It didn't very seem fun but I just couldn't stop!! Ive been playing video games 4 ever and I have never been able to say "this isn't very fun but I cannot stop" I think u have created a new human emotion haha nice work liked the planet art. Oh and btw LAVA IS LAST!! haha
The mechanic was cool. It kind of reminded me of an IQ test but in game-format.
I felt like the player needed a little more feedback. Before you figure the game out, it's disconcerting when the levels start out, and shuffle around, and if you select incorrectly it just immediately starts over. It should have been more obvious the player was losing a heart in that instance. Then again, maybe the disorientation was part of the mood. As someone else mentioned, sometimes it seems like the shuffling isn't going to stop.
Also it would have been nice if some of the earlier levels could have been taken as writ once you beat a certain level.
Overall, it's a quirky, innovative game that I enjoyed playing till the end. Good job!
P.s. Thanks again for streaming my game! It was fun to watch and the feedback you gave was really insightful.

Nice sound effects!
Real voice acting!
Is a good concept that has a lot of possibility
C_Walden: Okay I'll make it bigger/juicier if I do another pass on this game :D
