Submission

Lament ye peoples of the earth, for we have submitted!
Our triumph dawns on the horizon.
All mankind shall be stricken with fear for our creation is amazing!!!

The most wonderful game in the universe... ish.

...Well... We wish. As far as we're concerned, it's pretty good. The user interface is not quite to the point we'd want, we don't have explosions, and some of the planet decorations don't have textures. Do I see potential for further updates?

Maybe not. It'd take time we might not be willing to spend this specific project.

One thing we should note, for the benefit of future generations, is this:

BEWARE OF EVIL JELLYFISH IN SPACE!!!

THEY WILL KILL YOU!!!

AND YOU WILL SHOUT WITH LOTS OF EXCLAMATION POINTS!!!!!

LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah... Basically, our debugging was consistently interrupted by the rather annoying jellyfishes of doom (yes, jellyfishes is plural). I guess adding collision to them was not necessarily the best idea. One thing is certain, though. The game is much harder now.

One of our testers testing the wormhole gate.
Note the jellyfish about to destroy his productivity.

What is our game, you may ask? Well, the point is to reach the gate of wonderfulness located on the opposite side of the solar system.

Hmm... you say. That seems too simple.

Let us respond to your doubts.

Yes it is too simple. Sooooo..... Let's add space jellyfish!!! Let's make sure you don't have any acceleration due to yourself and rely only on the gravity of planets which you must slingshot around!!! Let's make an autogenerated solar system so that you never play the same level twice... except when you do because of the same seed!!! Let's be epic and act like the game is absolutely amazing!!! (Which it is. Good job team!)

Well, that's about all I have to say. If I've actually interested you in the game, go here to download it. If not, go here for other amazingness by people other than us.
