It took a minute, but I ended up really enjoying the movement of zipping across the stars. Good game!

Very original, haven't really seen anything like it. The idea of slingshoting around black holes created from stars that you consumed is so metal.

I really enjoyed playing this game :)  Thanks

Well done!

I wish there was some more incentive for killing the stars, otherwise it gets quite repetitive very quickly.

Interesting concept nonetheless, good job!

I enjoyed zinging around between systems and death spiraling the planets. Destroying a star felt satisfying, although I thought there could be some sort of sprite change to show the destruction rather than just a health bar.

Developer

glad you liked it! that's actually a great idea, maybe if i continue developing the game i might implement this. A little polish couldnt hurt haha

I had a blast playing this! so many satisfying bits of juice, circling around a planet and smashing through the orbiting bodies felt incredible. Everything felt really cohesive - great job!

Developer

This was a fun little game. I love that the loop theme made so many space games pop up!
