I like the way this game looks: The concentric rings are very evocative, and the trails are a nice touch. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>While the collision mechanics do make for a couple of interesting puzzles, I'd be interested in trying a version of this game where destructive collision could not occur; there would be less resetting that way, and I think it would move the game more towards cultivating your own little solar system rather than merely accomplishing arbitrary tasks."},{"author_name":"metalchouchen","author_uid":"37446","time":"Sep 1, 2014 @ 4:04pm","epoch":1409587140,"text":"Well done.

Gravitate is a puzzle game revolving(HURR) around the manipulation of gravity. Each level has a specific goal such as converting a planet to a certain element or transferring a moon to a new owner.\r\n\r\nI'm happy with the style and idea I came up with, although admittedly my take on the theme is rather literal. I'm a little annoyed with myself that I let the mechanics slip in my rush to finish, and that is the first thing I would clean up if I continued pursuing this idea. I originally wanted a straight forward RPS style system of element interaction, but as of now it's much less intuitive and leaves the player to trial and error.\r\n\r\nAnyway, point is - don't get too frustrated trying to figure out any of the levels :D","title":"Gravitate"}
