Looking good!!  Glad to see a new pic    Will the lava planets emit their own light on the dark side?

cool, will a magma-filled planet slowly cool down to form rocky planets like how earth was formed?

Wow, this is great!

[Kevin1994]

Awesome!

that might need some sort of atmosphere and ecosystem simulation but this procedural stuff is good!

[Jupiter]

if a small planet collides with the lava planet will the lava gets spitted out to space and maybe land on another planet? and maybe the lava will cool down into a asteroid?

[Astronomical]

Looks awesome so far! Will we be able to manually choose planetary designs that the procedural engine is capable of making?

[JAW1002]

Well this has just gone and got me more excited! Any chance of a video demo at some point?
