A simple space game with orbital mechanics for Android.
I optimized the solar system a bit, so you can now explore. It is still very unstable though, so after a while it starts to degrade. I made a short video clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdCKXNEn69A
I have to post an image so here is an image.
Completely revamped UI and control scheme, pinch to zoom, animated rocket flames, and even a ship customization menu with three different spacecraft!
Added the full(ish) solar system! All 8 planets with most of the major moons. Some UI changes as well with a new timewarp functionality. There are still some issues with gravitational perturbations pulling some of the bodies out of their orbits, but those can be fixed. For now, enjoy this screenshot.
I just added camera modes to my 2d space game for Android, “Orbital Velocity”. You can toggle between “ship” mode which centers the camera on your spacecraft, and “body” mode which centers the camera on the celestial body exerting the most gravitational influence on you. Try it out! https://github.com/smitamw/OrbitalVelocity
