16:26 this planet is very interesting, it probably used to be like pure ice! But now that the star is dying it melted and gas trapped in the ice became an atmosphere.

21:49 Usually these asteroid rings are the precursors to rings and are formed when a moon breaks apart.

14:10 *Buzzer* A giant is a star ending its life. A dwarf is usually just a small star and they live longer. A brown dwarf however is a failed star basically the missing link between a planet and a star.

3:32 WOW! Its a BIG gas giant that has a ice giant as a MOON!

20:47 that asteroid ring must of Ben a dense and old ring but had a lot of collisions happening in there which formed the asteroid rings. In the future a moon will be born and maybe destroyed again.

Game crashing as you approach a black hole can be fixed. There's a line in the config that needs to be changed to 'false' and you can go near and in black holes, neutron stars, etc.

I really enjoyed this except for one thing: slowww dowwwn. lol. your rapid controlling the camera made me very dizzy. It seemed a bit rushed. Keep in mind, the slower and more gradual and patient your movements, the larger and more magestic everything will feel to maneuver around. And in any case, taking time to keep the camera on something to observe it helps you (and us) really look at all the different things going on. Otherwise, nice work! :)

12:51 This is an Oceana Aka an Ocean planet. There are no islands.

[thisisnotinteresting]

16:10 that Oceania must of not have any lands because of the tides from the moon. The tides there would be too extreme for life to live there and the planet will become a Deseret a few million years later.

I bet you need like a GTX 960+ to run this game smoothly. I have 2.16GHz and 4GB of ram and I lag like shit with the auroras on
