Planet Size and Aura Phases

Planet size in the Galaxy reflects your friend's Aura phase. From tiny Ghost to massive GOAT, see how progression shapes your view.

When you look at your Galaxy, you will notice that some planets are tiny specks and others are absolute units. That size difference is not cosmetic — it directly represents your friend's Aura phase. The further along they are in their Buddzy journey, the bigger their planet appears in your Galaxy.

How It Works

Every friend's planet size maps to their current Aura phase:

  • Ghost (levels 1–17) — Minuscule. A tiny dot that you might need to zoom in to spot
  • Spark (levels 18–33) — Small. Visible but still pretty humble
  • Blaze (levels 34–50) — Medium. A solid, respectable presence in your Galaxy
  • Neon (levels 51–67) — Getting big. Bright and hard to overlook
  • Cosmic (levels 68–84) — Large. Hard to miss, these planets demand attention
  • GOAT (levels 85–100) — Massive. These planets dominate the view and radiate serious energy

This creates a natural visual hierarchy in your Galaxy. The most dedicated, most active friends stand out immediately because their planets are simply bigger. You can spot a GOAT from across the Galaxy without even zooming in.

Size and Distance Together

Planet size works hand in hand with distance to paint a complete picture of each friendship. A friend who is close and big? That is someone you invest in heavily who is also crushing their own progression. A friend who is far but huge? They are a GOAT-level player you have not been giving enough Stars to.

These visual cues make the Galaxy incredibly intuitive. You do not need to open menus or check stats — you can read the state of your friendships at a glance.

Watching Friends Grow

One of the most satisfying things in Buddzy is watching a friend's planet grow over time. When they cross into a new Aura phase, their planet visibly levels up in your Galaxy. It is like watching someone evolve in real time. You will notice it instantly, and it feels genuinely exciting to see your friends progress.

Pro Tips

  • Use planet size as motivation — seeing a friend's massive GOAT planet might push you to grind your own Aura harder
  • When scanning your Galaxy, big planets near the center are your power friendships — close bonds with highly active friends
  • Small planets near the edges are new or inactive friends. Send them some Stars to pull them closer

Good to Know

Remember that planet size reflects their progression, not yours. You cannot make a friend's planet bigger by giving them Stars — that only affects distance. Size is entirely based on the friend's own Aura phase. It is a cool separation that shows both your investment and their personal growth in one clean visual.
