Concept
Orrery Keeper is a small cozy physics puzzle game. You are the keeper of a clockwork orrery: place and nudge planets so a wandering probe settles into a target orbit and stays stable.
- Core loop: inspect level, place/adjust bodies, run simulation, rewind/tweak, earn stars for stability and minimal mass.
- Platform: web (desktop and mobile browser), TypeScript + Canvas, hosted on GitHub Pages.
- Art/style: brass-and-ink antique orrery, warm palette, accessible high-contrast mode.
- MVP features: deterministic N-body sim, drag-to-place, pause/rewind, 20 levels, scoring, local save.
