I really liked the music. It was a bit difficult to understand what to do at first, but I think I figured it out. Well done!

In what way does your game fit the theme?
The cubes are stronger together.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code, but the music and some of the effects are free Unity Asset Store assets.

The music in this was really good! This felt a little like you were bacteria in a petri dish. Neat idea on the theme.

Propaganda and RebellionI like the game's idea. more of a tutorial could help. basically it just needs polishing. I can think of many things to point at. Just generally polish up the game, and this could become a pretty cool arcade game.

Why not togetherThe idea is solid; I liked where you were going with this.
If I had to give feedback, I'd say that there needs to be a clearer differentiation between enemy/friendly objects (they were so small you could mistake a sphere for a cube).
In addition, the camera following the player could have done with some smoothness. At the minute, it feels slightly uneasy.
Overall, I think this idea has some real potential, especially after addressing the above.
You can extend the idea by implementing things like power-ups or levels.
Fantastic effort!

The Masks We WearI loved it! I like how the different color cubes have different behaiviours. I couldnt see th UI, so i have no idea what was my socre. GOOD JOB!
if you have time, check out my game

What The Blob !?!!I like the approach you took towards the making of this game. It would of been nice if there was some more interaction involved instead of just dodging the spheres and squares all around the map. Overall though, this game is nice and with a bit of polishing this game can be better!

SeparatedSmooth movement & sound effects, the UI was not properly scaled tho

Blue and Green: Testing roomsthe movement feels nice however the first time i died it felt my eardrums exploded the ui scaling was broken seemed to be set to only match the screen width

Congenial Octo BarnacleThe particle effects and sounds are really nice. But I found the gameplay a little too repetitive. Most of the time I was just moving in the same circles again and again without there being a real threat of getting hit. Also, I had some issues with the game not displaying properly. Top and bottom were cut off except when I switched into fullscreen mode.

Torn Apart - A Love StoryThe particles are amazing! Along with the sound effects it's really good. Seeing the cubes follow you around and destroying the spheres is really satisfying. Great job!

Above and BeyondThe game is simple, but fun. Assets are low res, but that is fine for a game jam. If I were to change anything I would want the movement to be with the keyboard so sort of limits the player's movement more. Other than that, this sort of reminds me of one of the .io games, which isn't a bad thing.

Combine and SlimeIt's really fun game! It is like Jupiter was alive and could move, hauling all the moons to smash whatever he likes ;-)
9350 points!

SlimetopiaSimple mechanic but super addicting. I just hope for better asset use for the overall look of the game. otherwise this could have been my all time favorite. Controls is responsive and easy to get use to, the music fit the gameplay perfectly (could add more for better experience). The game also fit the theme perfectly. Overall, nice game and that's all haha.
