UPDATE: An extra version, with added settings based on feedback has been added. The fundamental game is the same, but some minor usability tweaks (probably permitted by the rules anyway) have been implemented.
Requires WebGL support.
Some divine cosmic being was feeling bored, and decided to role a snowball down an asteroid field, but after many attempts, he/she/they/it became frustrated at how it kept getting smashed up by all the bigger asteroids before it grew any bigger. So, he/she/they/it created a final snowball, and bestowed it with sentience, so that it may navigate the asteroid planes to grow, and grow, and grow.
Yup. That's you. You're a snowball. Collect up mass from smaller asteroids to grow bigger, but avoid any reasonably big asteroids, which will smash you up if you hit them. Fear not, for your trusty snowball vision will guide you.
Oh, and by the way, there is an ending. (You grow exponentially, so a target mass of 1e50 doesn't sound too bad, does it?)
TLDR: Hit the light blue things, avoid the light red things.
Love it :) It's pretty hard though. Only after a few attempts did I notice the two different colors of rocks meant whether you could pick them up or not. When I figured that out, it got a lot easier! Great fun :)
Pretty fun! The way it's embedded is really not optimal though... at 1x scaling it's just unplayable and with 3x scaling it wouldn't fit into the box thus forcing me to either go fullscreen or play it directly on the host website. The graphics looked fine. I guess the low resolution was a stylistic choice. It didn't bother me too much anyway. One feature I'd have loved to see would be the player's rock picking up other rocks they way the player does in Katamari Damacy but I guess that would've been too much additional work. ^^
I love the intro text lol, I really like the game, but I would make it a bit easier to distinguish between the types, it's really hard to see as it stands
Ya know what is one of my biggest pleasures in playing a game? A large field of collectibles. Like a lot of rings in Sonic or a field of coins in Mario. It's like eating an ice cream with chocolate chips, and then you get one spoon and it comes with a lot of concentrated choco chips and you munch it all at once.
Loved the feeling of collecting smaller asteroids (good sound effect). Game over immediately after a first crush is a bit punishing I think. There is a similar game here somewhere, and you would just loose mass while collide with bigger asteroids. But anyway it's a solid entry, well done!
Yey 244.228, not that much but I was quite satisfied with that, on my first 10 attempts I made it for like two seconds :-) it was really hard but interesting and fun concept! Well done!
Surprisingly fun! play it for like 20 minutes aahaha. The major problem i found is that the difficult curve is just incorrect for me. At the beggining is so hard but then, when you absorb rocks for 20 seconds and so, the game feels much easier. Excepting that, I love it.

But nice concept

Playing your game felt that good.
