Simple controls and mechanics, cute and unique graphics, and a quickly discernable goal, gleaned from just puttering about, popping between planetoids, squashing wolves and grabbing suns, as the ancients were wont to do. Platformer type stuff with timing your jumps and keeping an eye on the clock aren't really my cup of tea, but I played through several levels easily. A smooth and engaging game.

Truthfully its a 5 star game as far as quality goes. The only reasons I actually gave it 4 is: 1.) As I play the game, I so desperately wish that it had a user driven level creation aspect. 2.) Getting perfection on some of the levels takes so many attempts that I end up gritting my teeth and cursing under my breathe in a fit of total frustration and defeat (this might be a good thing though) All in all this game is super fun and unique, with beautiful artwork

Amazing graphics, great soundtrack, nice level design. The one-touch gameplay is original and works with gravity around small planets, very simple yet kinda hard to master (you have to time your jump very carefully in order to effectively get from one planet to another). I find it interesting but a bit frustrating all in all. Another issue is that the game itself is pretty short and after a while it gets pretty repetitive.

Says "contains ads", but I never saw a single one. I mention that because otherwise this would be a 3-star review of a game with a cool concept and charmingly stylized art that kind of wore out its welcome sooner than I'd have liked. I think there's an option to watch an ad to continue after a failed attempt, but I never do that anyway. So: game's OK, bonus star for keeping the ads completely non-intrusive.

I love this game! It's pretty, fun and satisfying but challenging. BUT long obnoxious ads to give you a tiny bit of extra life was a stupid idea totally spoiling the experience. Especially when you can't even pay to have them removed. This would be a five star review if it weren't for those f****ing awful adverts.

Fresh art direction and innovative gameplay. Imagine if Mario Galaxy was blended with an ancient Greek mythological aesthetic. Takes a little while to master the jump timing and while you learn you may be frustrated by jumping to a different planet than the one you were aiming for. Levels get more interesting as you go. Good work!
