General Relativity
Note: Game takes a bit to load.
Controls:
W A S D to set the direction of your ship.
Mouse to click and drag planets to move them.
After you start to move, you cannot drag planets, so plan ahead carefully!
According to Albert Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, Time and Space are not two seperate realms, but one single construct. This four-dimensional structure is what we refer to as The Space-Time Continuum.
The larger the mass of an object, the larger it's gravitational pull, affecting not only the space around it, but the flow of time itself.
This game was made for the Begginers' Jam_Autumn 2026, for which the theme was: "The Flow of Time"

Thats an amazing concept. I also liked the music and pixel art, and the opening part was pretty cool.
I would probably add an indication for the spaceships of which direction they are going, and make the spaceships more visually distinct than the player's spaceship.
Other than that, i think thats a great submission.
i cant stress out how fun this game was loll.
Thank you!
This is a rather good game and I agree with tino.
Keep up the good work pilot
Thank you for playing!
Hey buddy!
Interesting way of using the theme with a cool feature! Loved the gravity push from the planets
Some feedback if you find the time for those:
- UI is not scaled to the size of your screen (if i go fullscreen, i'll have everything related to UI in the center of my screen like "Fuel :" and the tips
- It's a puzzle game and you will fail at those levels a good number of time, i would have loved to keep le placement of my planets from one fail to another, and if needed, a reset button!
- you can cheat your way across some levels by using the planet to push the key/fuel to your ship before the level even starts! (intended?)
- small detail, even if the ship starts in the middle and is white, the differences between the ships that chase you and yourself is thin, confusing sometimes when many are on the screen on the later levels!
Went to the shooting spaceship levels!
Hi! Thanks for the feedback!
I tried making the screen a consistent size... I'm sad to hear it didn't work. When the jam is over I'll try fixing it.
You can press R to restart the level!
Also, yes it was intended!
Thank you for playing!
