Reviews for "Run From the Sun"

Addictive

Gravity could be alot better

This has so much potential to be so much better if you rework the gravity. Currently its effect is very "steep" (I fail to find a more suitable word): It either is applied fully, or not at all. What I mean is that once you get a certain distance close to the planet, it pulls you very strongly, making gravity "slinging" as the tutorial described something too risky to really be used tactically, whereas the planet doesn't attract you at all if even barely outside this distance. If the gravity was more linear, planets slowly attracting you even from far away, and getting gradually stronger as you neared the planet, the game would be loads more fun because gravity slinging would work much better. The game "Gravitee 2" will give you a pretty good idea of what I mean.
Also, I spent a great many attempts having only the default ship and the girly ship, and was almost giving up on the game before I unlocked 3 ships at the same time. You should spread out the requirements so that you constantly unlock ships every few turns if you play with decent skill, it would be more stimulating than going long stretches without unlocking anything and then have it all at the same time.
A final suggestion would be to add more objects other than planets. Meteors, the rare UFO and stars that are mostly too out of the way to be worth collecting are not enough.

Very nice!

I think that a personally customizable ship would've made it better, but very good over-all.
