Hey All,
As usual I didn’t find sponsor soon for my game so I decided to release it for free \ud83d\ude42
The game is inspired at the first place by images from Nexus Game Studio<\/a> and their upcoming game infinite<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

I wanted to create a game about planets and orbiting and I started thinking and at the beginning to mix the idea of rotating planets with Don’t Push the Button<\/a> zooming idea so whenever you reach a destination this destination is a part of planets that will rotate with you and the camera goes out. The rotating idea had come to me from a game I used to play it a lot at these days called These Robotic Hearts of Mine<\/a> by Alan Hazelden<\/a> you should check it, its free on web and there is versions for iOS<\/a> and Android<\/a> and Playbook<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I tried to play the game in my mind but it was impossible to be played and the puzzles that can come out of that idea were limited to me so I decided to put it in my idea files till I figure out how to solve its problems.<\/p>\n

After few weeks Mochi made 60 seconds competition<\/a> and I was cleaning my room (as it rejected to clean it since long time) and found old magazines and comics where I used to solve connect the dots games in them and I remembered how much fun and how much I love them, so I decided to make a contribution game to Connect the dots games and so Connect<\/a> was made.<\/p>\n

While I was making Connect<\/a>, Newgrounds was launching RobotDay competition<\/a> so a spark happened inside my mind why not convert the rotating planets into a robot arm who want to reach to a specific destination so from here the idea came about robot arm have specific pattern and want to change his pattern to new one, and since I always love quotes so I decided to make quotes after you finish each level about Robots.<\/p>\n
