The premise, in the publisher's words

Wakusei is a relaxing physics puzzle game about dropping and merging planets. Drop planets around an eclipse to merge same planets into new ones. This might cause the extinction of some civilisations but it's okay, we asked them first. The 360° gameplay makes for an interesting new experience and new strategies. Unlock upgrades, new events and additional game modes. Put the universe into a jar in Classic Mode or experience how the game must've felt like before gravity got invented in the Anti Gravity Mode.
