Awesome Game!!
Gone Stars
This Game is amazing I really love the way you can watch your world change and the different stars it’s so realistic. There’s only a couple of things that I would suggest and that is that you have a small tutorial explaining how and why things work for younger audiences and people new to the concepts of cosmology the one you have is kind of vague it explains the controls but I feel that it doesn’t convey much about the actual science and the other thing i wanted to suggest is maybe perhaps you could have something like a sandbox mode so that we you can make exact replicas of planets or just give them specific attributes I love the game and the concept a lot and the quality is unmatched thank you for putting so much work into this It’s so worth the money.
Excellent discovery learning

This is a wonderful ap for kids to approach astro physics through a self directed learning game, I wish all kids could have such games as part of their science curriculum

Literally! A wonderful discovery learning game in which you can find the ingredients to create habitable worlds.
Beautiful Cosmic Sandbox!

The most realistic-looking planets in any app I've tried. Lets you experiment and craft different worlds every time you play. Ability to save favorite planets is nice. Worked fine on my old iPad 2, no crashes yet.
Do not buy

STILL crashes right after choosing a star type on an iPad2 running iOS 9. Don't waste your time or money!
Fine on my iPhone but always crashes whenever I pick the star on the iPad.

On the last review I sent about this simulating app, I talked about how when I pick the star for my planet the game crashes. Also, make it so that you have an infinite number of spaces for saving your planets.
