Ratings and Reviews
Brilliant exploration game
Very good some things I like about the game. 1. You can land on planets and moons I think this good and just I like to explore. 2. You have J1407b J1407b the big ringed planet thank you for adding it although it’s called something else in the game. 3. You added facts a good part of the game I like reading it and it just brilliant I think this is a great game highly recommended all the reviews [by the time once this was posted] aren’t fake. me being a fan of space for about 5 years now loves this game along with others.
Developer Response ,
Thank you! Yes, that is true J1407b is V1400 Centauri b in the app (I'm a fan of the Bayer Flamsteed designations). Stars and Planets is an app, but with a few game features like flying a ship and walking on the surface with a character - to make the app more interesting and to experience seeing different landscapes and atmosphere colors.
I do plan to add another interesting game feature in the far future, more details on discord.
Love it
My only thing is: maybe add trees and bushes to planets with life alongside the rocks? Also what’s the thing to land
I’m in love with this
Becouse I can finally go on planets
