Nice game! It took a moment to figure out the relationship between population and fuel, but I figured it out in a couple levels. The visual style was great and fit very well. I had a little trouble with the camera, too--I would have liked a restriction on how far away from the sun is allowed, just so getting lost didn't seem like an option. Minor gripe though.
I am no longer a java n00b , Great game love the music. Only request would be an option to have the planets not spin around perhaps. Kinda made me dizzy :P maybe just to slow them down then
Hehe. I've now fixed the camera problem. I forgot to code the key release for the arrow keys which is why WASD was all that worked. Hopefully that sorts out the majority of complaints about it.
Very nice! Played through to the end. The difficulty was well done and I really liked the mechanic. The music added a lot as well. I really enjoyed it all around.
That was enjoyable! The controls were really smooth for me and felt great. The music was good too, although I think a more relaxing piece would help the mood more for this style of game, unless you start adding in asteroids that collide into planets if you don't act quickly and other such hazards.
Wow, that was a great game, wonderful, I like games that challenges me to think creatively XD Anyway, what if the 2 population are of same gender? :O Does that mean they... Lol, nvm jk. It was a nice little game. Hope you can expand on that in the future ;)
That's super honest of you, sorry if I came a bit harsh! Now I feel guilty because I don't know what the impact will be on all the ratings you've gathered so far. Maybe you should ask one of the organizers what you should in this kind of situation?
Aha, its fine. I had fun making it. The ratings will just be compared against the other jam ratings I think. Don't worry about it. Its the prettiest game I've ever made even without the music.
Nice polished entry. =) Would be nice to have a more graphical presentation of population and fuel -- it was kind of hard to follow the labels as the planets were moving around. Overall, nice work!

Not sure, why there's a maximum fuel #/10, but you probably planned it to be regenerable. Anyhow, thanks for sharing your work!
My only complaint is that it is a bit too simple(but I still gave it 5 stars, because it was really well made).
but if you use asdw it's perfect.
Nice minimalist graphics and nice game mechanic. :D
However, on the splash screen it says "music by <some guy who's probably not you>". If you used music you didn't make (or generate...) yourself, you're breaking the compo rules and this should be a jam entry.
