Hey Product Hunt community! 👋 🪐 I'm excited to share Merge Planets: Space Puzzle with you today! Like many of you, we got completely hooked on the viral "Suika Game" (watermelon game) mechanics. There’s something deeply therapeutic about dropping items, watching them bounce with physics, and chain-reacting into giant merges. But we kept asking ourselves: What if this classic puzzle wasn't restricted to flat 2D fruit? What if we took it into deep space with full 3D physics, real planetary mass, and glowing celestial bodies? That question birthed Merge Planets: Space Puzzle — built from the ground up using the Godot 4 engine! 🚀 ✨ What makes Merge Planets special? • 🌌 3D Spatial Gameplay: Instead of dropping 2D circles into a box, you guide and drop celestial bodies into a 3D cosmic arena. Angle, bounce, and gravity take on a whole new dimension. • 🪐 The Cosmic Evolution Chain: Start by merging tiny dwarf planets like Pluto and icy remnants, evolving them through Mars, Earth, and gas giants with procedural 3D rings, all the way up to igniting the giant, glowing Sun! • ⚡ Satisfying Physics & Shaders: We spent countless hours polishing fluid collision physics, custom Fresnel-based atmospheric rim shaders, and cosmic particle shockwaves so every single merge feels weighty and rewarding. • 🏆 Global Leaderboards & Offline Play: Compete for high scores against players worldwide, or enjoy the relaxing ambient synth soundtrack completely offline during your commute. 🛠️ Built with Godot 4: As indie developers, we love open-source technology. Building this in Godot 4 allowed us to achieve super smooth mobile performance (iOS & Android) with custom visual effects while keeping the game lightweight and responsive. 🙏 We’d love your feedback! We are actively working on upcoming updates including Chapter-Based Campaign Modes (reigniting frozen solar systems against 'The Dark Chill'), daily challenges, and custom planet skins. We would love to know: 1. How does the 3D physics weight feel to you compared to traditional 2D merge games? 2. What alternative planet skins or cosmic hazards (like black holes or solar winds) would you love to see next? Thank you so much for checking out Merge Planets! I'll be here all day answering your questions and chatting about game dev, puzzle mechanics, and Godot 4! 🌠 Let's make the Sun! 📝 4. Full Product Description (About This Product) Paste this formatted markdown into the Description / About this product section on your Product Hunt dashboard: Ready for a cosmic 3D twist on the viral watermelon puzzle adventure? 🚀🪐 Merge Planets is a captivating, physics-based space puzzle game inspired by the beloved Suika Game mechanics. Instead of dropping fruits into a flat container, you guide and release celestial bodies into a full 3D cosmic arena. Match identical planets to merge and evolve them — starting from tiny Pluto and icy dwarf planets, scaling up through Earth and ringed gas giants, all the way to the ultimate, glowing Sun! 🌟 KEY FEATURES: 🎮 3D Watermelon Mechanics Re-imagined Experience the satisfying drop-and-merge gameplay in a whole new dimension. Full 3D collisions, orbital bounce, and realistic gravity make every drop tactical and endlessly engaging. ✨ Next-Gen Shaders & Space Aesthetics Built in Godot 4, Merge Planets features custom Fresnel atmosphere shaders that give planets realistic glowing rims based on their atmospheric compositions, procedural 3D ring systems for Saturn and Uranus, and vibrant particle shockwaves on every merge. 🌌 Relaxing yet Challenging Gameplay Plan your drops with vertical alignment guides and holographic next-planet previews. Watch out for the pulsing laser Danger Line — if your planetary stack reaches the top, the cosmic collapse begins! 🏆 Global Leaderboards & Social Sharing Compete with puzzle fans and astronomers worldwide. Track your rank on global leaderboards and share your highest planetary chains dynamically with friends. 🎧 Immersive Audio & Offline Freedom Lose yourself in a generative, ambient space-synth soundtrack and bass-heavy spatial sound effects. No internet? No problem — play completely offline anywhere, anytime. Plan your drops, master 3D physics, and reignite the universe.
