Nice short difficulty game,
love the tips you gave in the game page screenshotsshhhhhh don't tell anybody 😊
Great game, I like that every puzzle had a unique solution that uses the planet's properties.
The background info and transmissions also added a lot.
Thanks for the feedback Nitsan!
Awesome. I haven't played it because I'm on a Mac, but it looks cool. I'm also studying Physics, so this is appealing to me. I'd also had the thought of trying to make a game using the programs I made in my Computational class, but I probably couldn't have made it look this cool.
Thanks! I find that developing games like this really deepens my understanding of the subject, so they are really fun to make. Good luck with your projects! I look forward to seeing what you come up with
So I finally got my pc hooked up and played it. Dude, this is fantastic! It feels polished. I love the lift-off from the start menu, the story elements, the music and sound. All great. And some of the emergent patterns are very beautiful, especially on the double-black hole level. Speaking of, I played through and beat the double-black hole level, and as it faded out the game froze there, music still playing. I started all over (happily), but the same thing happened again at the same moment. I sure would like to see the end of this game.
Thanks for playing and great feedback! I will look into the double black holes level... That is so weird that it is doing that.
