Great fun. Controls felt well calibrated. Difficulty was good - leading the player through the different game aspects was done well.

Could have done with some music but apart from that all jolly good.

Good aesthetic, and it was neat how the planets were both a goal and a hazard due to gravity. Nice job!

Really great aesthetic. The tension created here was amazing and when you pull off a crazy man maneuver and skim by a planet by the skin of your teeth you feel like some sort of bad ass ace pilot. Really nice. The controls did feel as though they could use a bit of tuning but for a jam game this felt surprisingly whole. The fact that it had UI guide markers as well is a really nice touch. I think with a little music / sound effects and a few more days in the oven and this could be a complete game that I would buy. Nicely done!

Nice interpretation of the theme! Simple and fun gameplay. I also dig the clean simple graphics. Would have been nice to have some music!

I gave up on the last level after a dozen tries, wrote this comment, went back... and beat it on first try :)

Challenging and fun. Cool background, looks like a strategic space map. I like the clean and minimalistic look in general. Some sound effects would have been nice though.

Quite a fun game. Reminds me of another game where you deliver mail to planets as well! Great addition to the bunch and neat visual style.
