Not sure what you're supposed to do, is destroying the earth losing or winning? The explosions are satisfying and I kinda like how mysterious the game feels. Nice job.

like @jakobthequizguy I'm not sure I understand anything, but I quite like the mood. The music is nice.

Cool idea! I'm not really sure what the goal of the game is, but the feel of the game is really nice.

I wasn't sure I was doing the right thing, but it felt good doing it. Enjoyed the screen shake and the feeling of power as I blew stuff up. Some nice effects in there too. Thanks for the game.

I like the screen shake effect. But like others said, I wasn't quite sure what my goal was.

didnt really understand the game, but the collisions beetwen the stars had an wow factor.

Wasn't too sure how to play the game, however it was very pretty and fun just to spawn in the asteroids and stars and have the camera shake and hear the rumble. Nice banner!

Cool effects when the stars exploded, the screen shake really helped with the feel. I wasn't able to beat it however :(

Really enjoyed the original music and particle effects. Was able to move the God relatively far but it wasn't immediately clear to me exactly what was impacting that.

The graphics presentes on the game are really well done and the explosions are very satisfying to watch. On the other hand, to comprehend the game mechanics and actually make progress is kind of complicated. The swipe to move the objects felt a bit clunky to me and i had a though time trying to move Earth to the black holes. It was however a pleasant experience watch all the fireworks in the progress. Good job on your entry.

Nice game! The graphics done in the game are beautiful, and the explosion effect is just fantastic. Overall nice game!

Believe it or not but I actually managed to win! It’s quite hard to understand (also why does throwing the earth into a black hole makes your god move???) but all the effects are very cool! The music is very nice too! I found it rather hard to control the earth, as it always stops instead on moving in a different direction.

I'm not sure I was playing it right -- but I sure had fun doing it. The 'juice' is great - the screen shake, the sound effects, the explosions are all very satisfying. And the tranquil guitar music offsets it nicely.

I'm completely lost. I like spawning dozens of planets/stars and seeing them interact, but I have no idea how to move the god to the right side of the screen. I got him to move a little bit but not sure how. Thank you for the game!

Interesting concept. The game seems easy, however, if you want to beat it you will have to wait a lot. Beautiful graphics and effects.

Can't understand, what's the purpose of the game. What's that god? Why should you shoot at Earth?
Looks very art-house'ish...

I think this game is a bit too high level for me, but I had fun seeing stuff collide.

Music was awesome! You should try record a more HQ version now that you don't have the time contraints of the compo anymore :) Nice use of the theme too.

Thanks for the feedback. I've uploaded a video tutorial showcasing gameplay and basic rules of the game, so I hope it would be helpful.

I like the idea here, and the music was great.

Kinda felt like the chance of getting the black holes were a little too small, as I had to collide stars upwards to 10 times before getting the desired result. Also, the screen shake was a tad too much at times (especially when I started spamming stuff just to get new stars).

The planets and asteroids could have done with smoother shapes, but I really liked the collision effects and the booming effects when stars were created.

Overall - good job!

Liked the juicy particle effects, sparkles, and audio. Agreed with some others here that its a bit unclear unclear how to actually progress the game, but enjoyed clicking around.

I won too! God saw all that he had made and it was very good, truly going from nothing to everything in this game.
Yeah, felt very experimental, which I like. Everyone said it already, but those explosion effects were really top-tier. I liked the music too, it really got you into the mood of getting immersed in the game. Very stylish game, well done!

It was certainly fun and innovative! I'm not sure I was playing it correctly though; hard to figure out how to accomplish the goal. The tutorial video was a good idea.

I have no idea what I am doing, but it looks interesting and "move the god" is a great way to start your instructions.

How do I move the god? He doesn't want to do what I pray him to do :)

It's a very environment heavy game. I liked the visual effect and SFX. The music is really cool as well.
