This is a Global Game Jam 2012 and Super Friendship Club UNIVERSE Pageant entry. 
Six talented developers/designers/artists spent 48 hours 1/27/2012 - 1/29/2012 
hammering away at Unity 3D, and Flare is the fruit of our (sleep-deprived) 
labor. Released CC-BY-NC-SA.

This build is a post-competition version that adds a couple of platforms, cleans 
up the worst of the bugs, improves performance by a small amount, and adds more 
of an ending after death.


SETTING:
--------
Your corner of the universe just got a little unstable. A black hole has 
appeared, and your solar system is circling the drain. Better leave home 
and stay one step ahead of the gravity well.


OBJECTIVE: 
----------
Avoid getting sucked into the black hole by jumping between planets. Be 
careful not to swing too far out of the galaxy, or you'll be lost in space.

Make sure to jump close to a new planet in order to enter its gravity field.
If you end up orbiting a planet, use your limited telekinetic powers to
rotate in the direction opposite your orbit. You'll eventually drop out of 
orbit and land on the planet's surface.
