WOOHOO, I did it, I destroyed colonized everything! LOL that was super cute and funny, and I loved the sound effects so much. Well done! This was a clever little gravity puzzle game!

good enough

it's so cute! I enjoyed this one. are you planning to release more levels in the future?

I might!

What are the objects for? 

I added then initially for two reasons:

  • Help you create boundaries to make it easier to place your creatures
  • Decoration

Unfortunately, it doesn’t really work that well. They’re not really useful to help you with the creatures and most people just go for the targets and don’t decorate

I love the fact that you can use bombs to destroy the settlements and it will count as finished

Me too!

what a great game! and very polished. i really enjoyed playing it. do u plan on releasing the source code (for education purposes)?

Thanks! I usually make my game jam sources available on Patreon. I didn’t do it yet but I’ll try to do it tomorrow :)

I had so much fun playing this game! It really put a big smile on my face. I loved shooting the houses and little people from the slingshot at the planet - it was just so amusing and satisfying. The gravity mechanic was a great touch. I really enjoyed figuring out how to use it to place objects in tricky spots. It added an extra layer of strategy that I wasn't expecting. The whole concept felt fresh and creative to me.

Thank you for your comment, glad you enjoyed!

Very cool game! Well polished and fun. I made it to Level 5 but got stuck afterwards.

Thank you! Yeah it needs some getting used to, don’t hesitate to use the bomb to make it easier and skip level if you struggle. Thanks for playing :)
