The Celestial Speck
A downloadable game
The Celestial Speck
Relax. Your speck drifts through space: just guide it.
Controls:
- Click/press and drag anywhere on the screen to steer
- Click/press the slider to change speed/reverse
- Click/press the speck to stop floating
Known Bugs (1.12):
- Reversing may cause momentum to become flipped in the horizontal axis. It will appear as though the speck is more difficult to control/resists being guided.
Future development
This is a work-in-progress conceptual prototype intended to demonstrate an idea. Future development plans include;
- More evolution possibilities (e.g. planet with/without life, moon, comet, black hole, planetary system, galaxy)
- Ability to switch between controlling various objects during a single game (e.g. control individual specks and celestials, systems and galaxies)
- Chemistry interactions
- Enter an orbit
- Earn special events (e.g. trigger an asteroid to knock something out of orbit)
- Physically accurate scales (e.g. mass, speed, energy, temperature, size)
- Larger areas
- Improved animations and graphics
- Improved UI
Trivia:
- The downloadable files contain a typo; "Celestial" is incorrectly spelled "Cellestial".
Any feedback and comments are appreciated.
