Editors’ Notes

We love learning about the celestial bodies in our own galaxy, but we’ve always dreamed of building our own. SPACE gives us the power to create stunningly detailed stars and planets, forging a virtual universe that follows the laws of astrophysics. It’s a heady thrill to be the master of our own miniature heavens—whipping up red dwarfs, gas giants, and comets that blaze through the cosmos at the tap of a finger.

Good but...

Haven't wrote an app review in years but after shelling out 3 bucks I figured the developers ought to have my feedback. Great game outstanding implementation of the scope and scale of the universe all in the palm of your hands. This game blew me away from the get go but initially you're kinda left to figure out how exactly do you work this thing. I started throwing out a few nebulas here a few pulsars there not really seeing any significant change or reaction just celestial bodies strewn around the cosmos. The fun began when I dropped in a yellow giant and placed a couple terrestrial stars around it then I was like duh gravity. I'm god and I make my universe as I please as long as they comply with the laws of physics. This is a great game with huge upside the only reservations I have is after you drop 7 or so celestial bodies it's begins to lag and begins flinging you uncontrollably throughout your universe. I'm sporting a 7 plus so I know it can't be a ram or gpu issue. Just filthy bugs, not really a deal breaker but for a game that cost 3 bucks you would expect it to be a little bit more refined and polished. I hope the developers dish out an update soon enhancing the experience while squashing the bugs. Back to my universe...

I love this app! But here are some feature suggestions...

An undo feature would useful, as well as an easier way to place moons. I zoom in on a planet, and pull out a moon, and the camera zooms out too far for me to place the moon on the planet’s orbit. I would also like to see a settings feature to turn on or off music and sfx. I would also like to see an option to make celestial bodies appear larger to make viewing your balanced star system more satisfying. All in all, I love this app! It is so much fun to play around with gravity, and see how many stars you can have in a star system before they all crash into each other and go supernova.
