Ok i was going to give it a 3/5 but then i got to lvl X... sometimes when u jump on a block u fdall through it and sliding is horrible, so i was going to 1/5 it, but then i thought i give it a 3+1 / 2 = 2/5

did anyone notice that the alien on the last level IS A F*ING POKEBALL?
Memes aside, it's a cute little platformer with exceptional presentation. I think some of the animations could have been cleaned up a bit, otherwise really fun.
One major flaw though: the occasions when you and or the platforms are obscured by the bars at the top and bottom of the screen. I nearly threw a fit trying to guesstimate where things were after they would disappear behind a fairly arbitrary chunk of display.

I agree with pretty much all of your guys' comments... good stuff to know.
Draco: I know it isn't a planet, which is why i made the intro say "Each of the 8 planets (and Pluto!)", referring to it not being grouped as a planet anymore :)
Ehh.. but still, im a 90's kid, I'll always think of Pluto as a planet in my mind no matter what they say, haha.

I really like the concept, and like the astronomical facts, but the controls are too damn twitchy (have to fidget back and forth on landing to get things just right.)

also, you could animate the little astronaut a little more, it's a bit awkward having only the legs move, and they move in a robotic-esq fashion.

Also: Pluto isn't a planet. Whoever told you that was lying. As of a year or two ago, Pluto was downgraded to a Dwarf Planet. So there. :P

Oh I know Mars is inside the asteroid belt, But I never stated these were in order. If I would have been totally accurate, Neptune would have been the final planet because it was further from the sun than Pluto (as it is 25% of the time) at the time.
Asteroid belt was originally "the moon", but I changed it when the game was finished, so I felt no need to switch 'em around. :)
thanks all!

nice game. i gave it a 4/5
the only problem that i had was i kept falling through the platforms
PS: can anyone give me a good book or site for beginners on coding flash games?

Thanks for the comments all! appreciate it. As you can tell it was my first time attempting to make a flash game.
Terry or anyone else - which facts are false? It's pretty basic astronomy and I dont believe I have any wrong info but correct me if you see something.

Not bad, personally not fond of platformers, but the quiz at the end of the levels gets and extra star from me. Keep it up.

Nice idea with the quiz in between the levels. Looks alright too. Controls could be a bit more precise / tight.. they seem a bit muddy now. 3/5

The platforms have multiple landing levels. If you hit the platform half way, you land on the bottom side of the platform. Also, it seems that the character falls off the edges a bit earlier than the graphic depicts. Meh to the game, but :thumbsup: to the science quiz (even if the facts are a bit off). 3/5 Terry S

3rd comment! when i land on a platform sometimes i stay about a quater inch off of it and i am unable to jump, most of the time i have to walk back and forth until i land on it, ps i gave ur game a five for good science knoledge

Hmm where is that occurring? You can steer yourself in midair and I havent been able to duplicate falling through a solid surface, if you could direct me ill take a look at it ASAP
