Definitely my favourite one-button game. Love the minimal sounds and just the whole feel of it.

Thank you, i'm really happy that you like it. I'm in some calm meditative mood while playing.

got to 1000 then accidentally clicked s :(

Ah, i was thinking about this case :( , need to change menu button.

Really nice game, i got to over 600!

Thanks! Not bad! :D

i stopped at over 1600 my astroid took up almost half the screen only big  black holes and really massive stars could sway its course other wise i ran thru everything until i met an enormous black hole no way to get around it and it took half my astroid spent well over an hour its fun but gets boring after a while if i want to relax definite game to play great game!

Wow, thats a big comet. Ye game is infinite runner, so there is maybe need little bit more content, but for 3 days jam, i will keep it simple as it is. Thank you :)

Haha, this is awesome!!! Black holes are "little bit" not fair, I think I know how to fix this. Thank you for this amazing letsplay! I really enjoy it.

Love the minimalist visuals and the way you used gravity. My highest score was 57, lowest was -1.  Really great polish. The control I had over my comet seemed a little finicky/ out of my control. It was really easy to mess up how long I should be holding z for.  I think with more practice it would be easy to get a hold on. The black hole sound was actually really scary when I was on my high score run (as it should be). Great job! Thanks for the game

Thank you, Phillip! Ye, I was thinking about how I can make game little bit easy. And I guess I find the way, I think trajectory path will be helpful to understand how comet will move. :)
