A downloadable game for macOS

Earn points by staying alive. Maximize points per second by gliding as close as possible to the bodies. BUT BEWARE! Your microscopic mass, although negligible, will have an exponentially increasing impact on their fragile equilibrium as you grow nearer. Disturb the natural order at your own risk.

Created for the first ever Gosu Game Jam! The theme was "Chaos", so I tried to implement a stable solution to the Three Body Problem (a manifestation of Chaos Theory) that begins in a state of Order and is made Chaotic through user engagement.
