    Heavenly Bodies is a fun and unique physics based puzzle game. Personally, I played on Newtonian mode with realistic physics - where nothing can stop you if it's not solid. While the PC controls are a bit fiddly without a controller connected, you can pick them up fast. I always felt like when I failed to do something, it was my fault; I could never blame it on the controls or the game.Heavenly Bodies is a fun and unique physics based puzzle game.

Heavenly Bodies not only looks beautiful, but the sound design is amazing and the soundtrack too. Expand

    Great game. A truly wonderful and unique experience. Everything from the controls to the level design was well crafted to create what would turn into a binge of the game when played with two people.

    It is, in many ways, an exercise in frustration. But it’s a far more controlled one than QWOP or Getting Over It. Those games leave me feeling useless, unable to achieve, always thwarted. But Heavenly Bodies makes its goals possible, and a sense of progress always available. It is, ultimately, a chapter-based puzzle game, intended for you to win. That’s crucial.

    Heavenly Bodies is a surprisingly enjoyable physics-based puzzle game about an astronaut fixing a space station. Unusual controls and weightlessness can be frustrating, but most of the time they are really fun. The game shines especially in local co-op, where clumsy interactions between two astronauts are often amusing.

    Overall, Heavenly Bodies is a triumphant puzzle game. Its setting and premise are novel and excellently executed. The games succinct 5-7 playtime allows the game to not overstay its welcome and the excellent theming gives sensibility to what would otherwise be wholly nonsensical mechanics. Heavenly Bodies is a welcome addition to an already vibrant indie puzzle scene.
