The idea is rather original. Here is some suggestions:\r\r* Add a QR code with your download address in the screenshots. In this way if I am browsing on the computer I can use this image to download it directly to my phone.\r\r* Your game lacks some "choice" - right now it is just about shaking the phone as fast as possible. How about if sometimes there were TWO planets that you could connect to, with different point values? This would make the game much more intense.\r\rCheers!"},{"author_name":"Zoomyzoom","author_uid":"7301","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 11:16am","epoch":1408965060,"text":"nicely done on getting an android game in such little time!!

More depth could be added by provided, like perhaps making the planets move around or by having planets that you should avoid connecting to or you lose points; things like that.\r(Positive) + On the flip side, simplicity is great for mobile games as often times they aren't played in long sessions, just in periods of down time during the day. So it's good that you are thinking simple, perhaps just a little more complex would create improvements.\r\rGraphics\r\r(Negative) - The graphics aren't anything extraordinary.\r(Positive) + The graphics are consistent across the entire game and each one looks like it fits in with the rest.\r(Positive) + The randomness in planet color is a great touch; I prefer the use of the random number generator for aesthetics as opposed to gameplay elements.\r\rOverall, this is a nice game, especially for only one day's time!
