About

Take a trip into the Solar System, with this quick and dirty take on a Physics-based Simulation. Watch the planets orbit our star, inspect them for extra information, and add a few asteroids if you like, to see how their presence affects the system.

This was programmed in a little over 5 hours as part of a rapid prototyping class I'm taking this spring semester. As such, not everything works quite right.

  • The slowmo makes the planets move jerkily.
  • Mars cycles faster than the Earth
  • Uranus cycles faster than Jupiter or Saturn
  • Speeding up the passage of time causes Mercury to slowly fall into the Sun
  • I also didn't get the trajectory estimator for spawning new celestial bodies implemented in time.

I might revisit this in the future and fix this things, once I understand how.

Note: There is an included README with the controls in the downloaded files.
