Cosmic Garden

A Solar System Cultivating Game

Made for GMTK game jam 2024 - https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2024

• Cultivate life in this empty solar system by adding planets
• If the planet is too close to the sun, it will boil
• If the planet is too far away from the sun, it will freeze
• The planets' gravity interfere with each other's orbit
• Big planets have more mass - but can sustain more life
• Life needs water, but also favors living on the landmasses
• Life needs a stable orbit - once conditions are met, it will grow slowly
• You are scored by the highest amount of life you can sustain during a second!

Controls:

• Spawn planets with the left mouse button - it's easy, they start in a stable orbit
• Zoom in and out with the mouse wheel
• Move the camera around with the arrow keys or WASD
• Use the "Take me back to Origin" button if you moved the camera too far
• Mouse over a planet to see details
