it was quite confusing to start with, even when i got it, i still feel like i was not playing it right or maybe the bubbles were hard to control? Idk but i didnt feel like i was getting better.

This looks really nice, but it took me a bit to understand what goes where. When I got it, it was a nice experience- I think this could be a really nice mobile game with touch controls, just it looked challenging at first.

Its a cute nice little game,  the music is calm and really fits the theme, good job on your submission

The game needs a tutorial but once you get what you need to do with the bubbles it becomes a very interesting game. Art style is done very nicely.

Nice game idea :)

a tutorial maybe would be nice, but once i got it, the game became pretty fun! it was pretty frantic to swing my mouse around and connect the bubbles.

Game pretty cool! Was a bit confused at what to do at first though.

Thanks for stopping by and sharing your game on my stream!

This is a simple and well-presented idea, but it took a little while to "get" what the game was about. I think PICO8 is pretty limited, right? I don't know it well. It could have used some sort of tutorial or intro to the mechanics, but I got it eventually.

As mentioned on screen, there was a perceived difficulty curve: At first I thought it was incredibly difficult because there weren't a lot of bubbles to make lines with. Then I thought it was too easy because when the showerhead moved to the left or right, you could literally do nothing and let it pour grey dust where you wanted it to go. The red dust is a nice way to counteract that non-gameplay, but perhaps it might be better to have the showerhead always in the middle when it's grey dust, and always moving when it's red dust? 

Overall, nice job on completing this! Well done and thanks for stopping by!
