Orbit - Playing with Gravity

I’m autistic and I’ve been having an extremely hard time coping lately. In turn, I’ve been trying absolutely anything and everything to ease what felt like “spiraling into the abyss” for weeks. I’m not even being dramatic when I tell you playing this game caused me to ✨CRY TEARS OF JOY✨ because of how i was calmed almost instantaneously. The music sets a mood of tranquility and the “booping” audio choice of the planets is consistent, not sharp at all- it’s usually irregularities in things like this that can cause irritability so this was quite refreshing. Ps I really appreciate the messages the developer sprinkles in as you level up. Their genuine and endearing. I look forward to seeing what else they come out with.

I downloaded the game and I played it. It was a good game, watching the planets orbit black holes is really satisfying, and getting to interact with it is even better! But, of course, not everything is perfect. So, I was playing the game and then 10 minutes into playing it the game just crashed. Why? Could be something on my end, but I doubt it, being that this has never happened to me before with other apps. So I tried to open the game again but it wouldn’t let me. Every time I tried I’d see a gray screen for about five seconds and then the game would automatically close. I deleted the game and reinstalled it and it worked for another 10 minutes and crashed again. As I said, could be something on my end, but I doubt it. Overall great game, but what’s the point of a game if you can’t play it?

This is a really freaking great game. There are no words for how ingenious it is. It runs pretty smoothly for me. The simplistic design is very appealing, and I love making massive clusters of planets and have their trails just go crazy. The puzzles are challenging enough to not be unentertaining, not hard enough to be (very) frustrating, and creative enough to make you think. The mechanics are pretty great, and my friends and I had a good time puzzling over the solutions. (*obligatory uncomfortable silence after pun*) One thing I must note, however, is that you can solve a bunch of the levels by just spamming planets. Maybe add a limit to the planets per level? The user-created levels were a great idea, and I fully support the idea of having to pay for them- and I would buy them if I wasn't poor- but I mostly see the same or similar things in the user-made levels. You can only do so much with what's given, I guess. I don't know what there is, I'm still poor. The only problem I can see is that there isn't very many levels, and after I got sick of the same user-made levels over and over again I didn't play as much. I don't think it's fair to ask for more levels, as I know how much effort can go into thinking of a good puzzle, but I did all the levels in around 2 weeks, playing during lunch breaks.
