Rack up points by orbiting planets in this lyrical, abstract space game.
You are a spaceship flying through a field of planets, but with limited control.
However, when you run into and enter a planet's atmosphere you are able to orbit that planet by clicking the planet itself with the mouse. As long as you are in orbit you will collect points and gain speed. Click any empty space to stop orbiting.
But look out! Gravitational forces are pulling planets together destructively. You just might get smashed.
Jump from orbit from orbit to gather points for as long as possible without getting squished!
Almost relaxing kinda drifting thru space. Then planets start smashing into each other. Dare I say epic? One thing I would have like to see is moving faster in lower orbits. Just an extra touch of realism that I think could add a lot of depth to gameplay. I already lost more time than I was planning on to this one though. Great job.
After some initial confusion, discovered a really neat concept here. Would love to see a bit more of the gameworld, but that might mean making it a bit easier. I like the sounds!
Very interesting idea, lovely mood, lots of style. Might be improved dramatically if there was some sort of goal such as a wormhole you were heading for and an indication of how far away it was, then you could have levels :) (if there was, I didn't notice it, sorry) I have to second the call for a wider field of view too.
Nice concept - wish it was a bit faster paced and you zoom in/out. The explosion sounds remind me of Gunman Chronicles, an old Half Life mod. Good effort!
