This was designed to work with VR and mostly was an exercise for me to learn some new stuff. I was aiming to do more of a "grow your own star system" sort of thing, but I honestly just spent way too much time playing with particles.

In VR you should be able to "push" nebulae around with the palms of your hands or "smack" them with the back of your hand for more instantaneous force.

The general object of the game is to combine nebulae together to make bigger nebulae. When they are close together, their gravitational pull will draw them towards each other and they will combine into one.

Eventually they'll become large enough that they will form a proto-star.

Watch out for black holes that also appear and suck nebulae into them. As you combine bigger nebulae you also get bigger and more stuff starts to appear further out.

There's not a whole lot of actual science going on here so... that.

If you don't have VR, this SHOULD also fall back to work on desktop, I didn't give a way to switch though. WASD, space, and C to move around, mouse look, hold left mouse to charge a slap. Same things apply but you hands just move along with the camera.
