Pluto's Revenge by sandaz13

[raw]
made by sandaz13 for LD30 (COMPO)
This was my 3rd LD, and my first solo game. I'm really happy how it turned out given I could only work on it on Saturday

Pluto is unhappy that it's too small to be a Planet! Help it regain it's lofty status by collecting asteroids (and everything else that's smaller than you!)

Controls:
WASD/ Arrows: Movement
Mousewheel: Camera Zoom
Space: Reset Camera

Instructions:
Collide with objects smaller than you to gain their mass and get big enough to be a planet!

I think I swallowed everything in your solar system.

Not bad for only a day's work!

Could've made Pluto way less floaty. Made it incredibly difficult to actual hit smaller planets when you flew off course.

I like that you start the game zoomed in. At first I thought I could only swallow asteroids to become a planet. Then when I zoomed out I was surprised that I could eat planets. Then I zoomed out again and was surprised that I could bully the sun by pushing it out of the solar system. Nice revenge story.

I ate everything in the solar system then crashed into the sun. Kept me entertained.

I couldn't help but be annoyed by how hard it was to steer. This reminded me of solar.

I like the idea, but it was really hard to hit asteroids at first, when Pluto is soo small ;)
