This looks very cuute! but i get a bit dizzy during loops. but over all this is a nice concept

Developer

I think you understand why the emoji is like that...

Submitted (1 edit)

I like the aesthetic, but the loop was a little bit awful. The controls ware complicated and thats makes a had game to play. (I really enjoy the animations)

Developer(+1)

Yeah, I made the music in around a minute lol

Submitted

I think the controls are a bit too chaotic, but I see what you were going for. Definitely would be more playable if things were more predictable. I like the stripped-down aesthetic and the concept, though

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

Yeah, it's a bit too chaotic, aned the player can't know where it'll end up. After the rating ends, I'll try to do something, maybe it ends up well...

Submitted

Nice concept, but the controls are extremely hard. I believe that with some tweaking (like adding more damping to the spring & making movement more graceful) this can be turned into a cool game!

Thanks for the feedback!

After the rating ends I'll try to make it more... fun

Some wild b-game vibes from this! Felt great to bounce over everywhere even if most of the time I was just dooming myself. Keep working on this, I think it can grow into something awesome!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

I think I'll work on it after the rating week.

This is fun. it is like theme is out of control and joined together at the same time ı loved it.

Developer

I'm happy you enjoyed it!

Featuring a five-second music that digs into your mind faster than a quarry-water brain parasite, this nightmarish amalgamation of Bennett Foddy and Knuckles' Chaotix will have you screaming into the uncaring sky: "WHY?!? I WAS SO CLOSE! WHY DID YOU SEND ME BACK TO THE FIRST ROOM?" But there will be no god to hear you. Only Yo.

Yo and his Joe-Joe.

10/10 GOTY

You poet

getting some of that "Getting Over It" vibe. Good job!

Developer

Thanks!

It was pretty hard to move the way I wanted to but despite that I enjoyed it! I also like the art style of this game, great job for creating a nice game in such a short time!

Developer

Thanks!

After the rating ends, I'll (try to) fix it.

I really liked the concept but the balls were jumping around so much on random directions that I feel like I was not in control most of the time. Can be a great game if you can decrease the jumping around of the balls.

Developer

Yeah, I think after the rating ends I'll fix it. It's got some really obvious flaws, and it should have helpful text, but godot said nah
