MOONFLICK

A sandbox-puzzle game where the bowling alley turns out to be a solar system, and the lane is curved by gravity.

Wishlist on Steam — coming soon

The MOONFLICK orrery: a bloom-lit star with planets fanned along their fading orbit trails against a starfield.

It's billiards. But 3D. And in outer space.You're an omniscient being wiling away the days doing trick shots with moons, stars and planets as if they are your personal cosmic pool table.Are you ending civilizations? Maybe, but ugh you're so bored!

What you do

One repeated verb: choose a body, aim an impulse, then watch gravity resolve the consequences.

Pick a body

Fly the camera freely through the system while time runs fast-forward and the orbits visibly evolve, then click a world to lock onto it.
Aim an impulse

Swing your cosmic cue around the locked body, hold to charge, and read the trajectory preview before you strike.
Watch gravity resolve

Release. The impulse is a momentum kick — a gentle tap on a star, a mighty fling on a moon — and the whole N-body system reacts.

Part toy, part trick-shot puzzle

MOONFLICK is a sandbox-puzzle hybrid: equal parts toy (just watch the orbits evolve), Kerbal-style intuition pump (does this nudge collapse the inner system?), and trick-shot puzzle (how few impulses to reach the target state?).

Merge — pocket a planet into a star, or bring two worlds together gently and they combine, conserving mass and momentum.
Split — glance a gas giant hard enough and it shatters into a twin binary or a spray of fragments.
Reach the target — every level starts with N bodies and asks for a stable M. There is no shot limit; the fun is in the elegance of the solution.

Screenshots

Clockwork Orrery: a bright central star ringed by eight coloured worlds on a shared orbit; the goal reads N=8 to M=5. — Clockwork Orrery — merge each cog with its colour twin, and spare the odd one out.

Corner Pocket: a black hole rimmed by a glowing orange accretion ring, with two worlds trailing toward its mouth. — Corner Pocket — roll the rock into the black hole's mouth: slow and close, or it slingshots past.

Twin Worlds: three planets tracing orbit ellipses against a starfield; the goal reads N=3 to M=2. — Twin Worlds — merge two of the three worlds. The gentle introduction.

Everything is generated in code

No textures and no audio files ship on disk. Stars glow with blackbody colour and bloom, rocky worlds and latitude-banded gas giants are shaded procedurally, and an adaptive music director layers a genre score to each chapter as the system heats up. The simulation is deterministic, so a clean trick shot is a clean trick shot every time.
