    From Tiy's Twitter:
    So, depending on your star system, planets will appear in the sky!
    They also tend to be more visible at night.

    To everyone asking: they're from Tiy's twitter. Stop asking.

    Anyways, it looks nice, but the artwork needs to be changed. The sharpness looks extremely out of place in a pixelated environment.

    I agree, the planets artwork seem....out of place. It's a little harder to explain then that though, because in my opinion, I think they actually look good; it's just that they stand out a bit from the pixelated environment you are in. So basically, I like it, but if they changed it a bit, I would still like it hah. Also, the feature itself is AMAZING. So glad you'll be able to see other nearby planets.

    1) This is awesome. It's a great graphics feature, plus a neat thing, to keep in track how many other planets in your solar system you can look to explore.

    2) This feature would be most notable for people that just finish building their space ship, and want to fly somewhere nearby, without having to use up a lot of fuel to get somewhere else.

    3) This is super awesome. Things lit up in the sky at night while hacking away at surface resources/housing/mobs, just great.

    4) Did I mention it's awesome?
     
  11. This concept... my god, it'll look nice.

    So freaking pretty! So freaking amazing! And so easy to pinpoint which planet I'm going to make a smoldering wasteland next!

    You know what? I don't even care how scientifically inaccurate this is. It's beautiful, and I sincerely hope it stays in the game.

    They're just planets in the sky. What's SO special? Just a background role...
