Hi everyone ! It's my first Compo so be indulgent please~ Also, I did this Ludum Dare really chill (I worked on it but no speed, no pression, and only when I had time) and it was a way for me to do programming again ! So here's the first version of this game ! I'll update it gradually just for fun~

Nice little game. However it could do with some more things to do in the game. Perhaps you could add some obstacles you have to avoid

Nice game! There's a catch as your sun still makes the planet color change even when it departs so you need to anticipate the moment you release it. Camera and Planet movement Animations were choppy on my computer, is it normal? (Rotation was fine though)

I noticed that, in one instance, a nearby planet was also affected. I couldn't figure out where else this was possible. Either way, I think it's a nice mechanic that adds complexity.

I appreciated the option to continue, since the game was then about how many loops before I green all of the planets. I managed to convert 14 in a single loop.

Nice presentation and clear instructions too. Good work.

@tangomango Thank you ! That's a great idea ! I'll think about it and maybe add it to a new version of the game !

@peeweek Thanks ! Yeah I had to do it but timing was short.. Same for the movement of the Camera and the Little Sun, I saw it but didn't had time to fix it.. But I'll do it on the next version !

@pincushion If you succeed to change 2 planets in one travel, good job because I thought that planets were far enough from each ones ahah ! :smile:
Thank you very much for your feedbacks !

Neat little ideas wrapped up in quite a lot of polish, and an impressive achievement for a weekend gamejam.

Fun idea! It seemed like a lot of the time, I couldn't choose which way to go with the arrows. It worked in some places, but not in others. Is that intentional? Maybe you could indicate which paths are traversable and which aren't?

@judgezedd Thank you so much !

@caeonosphere You can only follow the link between planets, and there is no turning back (otherwise it's not a loop eh eh). But yeah there are problems with the selection of planets with arrows.. Sorry that it bothers you.. Thanks for your feedbacks !

Nice game! The visuals are great, and the main menu and tutorial are really nice and polished.
The sun moving to other planets was quite choppy. I also found I just had to wait for the planet to turn pink and then move off - perhaps a little variation in the colour change would keep things challenging. But overall, it's a cool game and a great idea for the theme.
