I don't think it will work, because you need to gain speed or loose speed to achive a stable orbit, which means you need a way to affect the moon's speed only one time, and then do not affect it anymore. In third level you can do this by affecting moon's speed once at the start.
A while ago I made a prototype similar to your game, where you need to build you rocket and fly it to the finish while being affected by gravity from planets(kinda like "Bad piggies" and "Angry birds Space" mashup), real life gravity formula do not work well, even KSP uses the "sphere of influence", so cheating with gravity was essential.
Also I can help you with the visuals if you want to release your game(I have some skills in pixel art)
Everything is cool except controls. You need to point your mouse with right hand, then you need to use arrows with left hand(or right hand), and then you need to press space with your left pinky(or left thumb), and then repeat it(sometimes you also press Q and R, which are in opposite side of the keyboard), and sometimes if you aren't fast enough, you can accidentally spawn two balls. Sometimes I feel like I am playing piano. I think it's better to use mousewheel to change the size, LMB to spawn balls, and R for restart.
But in general the game is very nice
Nice concept, but gameplay is a bit annoying because of too much camera movement. Also walking animation affects your collider, so it pushes you out of the walls, which makes your camera go crazy. Also it sometimes pushes you out of the platform or changes the height of your jump for no reason.
But in general the game is nice, this simple style and especially music. Do you have youtube channel or something?
If you are playing not in fullscreen, Itch io crops the edges of the screen for some reason. It also don't want to lauch normally when I change Embeding settings. It works fine only with "Click to fullscreen" mode. If you have any clue how to fix it, please send help.
Also, if you stuck on the first screne, just click on Earth.
I love the idea of changing controls every time you die, but I think it'd be good if game had checkpoints(those pink things dont do anything, maybe this is bug?) Also, I think you should make bg a little bit darker, because now gameplay is blending into background a little bit. Also ground detection don't work sometimes, and you are making small second jump instead of big first jump. But overall it is nice game!
I can say this game is complete torture for people who's native language is russian. I literally cant understand anything except "tea" and "juice" (If you think about it, this is skill issue), but staring at cup while "Your best nightmare" playing is very fun. I think you should add difficulty slider which slows down sfx.
