"Simply merge balls into one."  Not complex at all ;)

Nice game, fits the theme well.   Adjustable difficulty would be a cool feature, but I imagine if you added more levels it could be scaled without it.

Developer(+1)

Thanks. Wasn't sure how to scale the levels to be linear in difficulty, 1-2 are easy, 3 is ok, and 4-5 due to time limit are hard. If I had spent more time on levels maybe I could have smoothed it out more.

Nice puzzle idea!  It fits the theme well and it definitely made me want to beat all the levels.

It might have been nice to have some visual indicator of how the different circles moved relative to each other, like an arrow that points toward that ball's "up" or something.  

Developer

Thank you. Good suggestion as well, might think about it since not all circles had regular movement, so a single "up" indicator wouldn't be enough.

Well, that seems pretty simpl- ooooooh, you devil!

Neat idea! The puzzles are interesting, and solving them is really satisfying. I only regret the time limit, the last two level are pretty difficult because of it.

Anyway, I enjoyed playing it! Good job!

Developer

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Time limit was deliberately short to increase difficulty, but I understand that's not for everybody. And made restarting after death/timeout pretty quick and easy to do.

I really enjoyed your game! It was such a fun and simple puzzle. I hope to see more future levels!

This game reminded me of an old nes game called Lunar Pool. Nice game. I enjoyed it.

Good puzzle idea :-) Wonder if it is really needed to have the timer?

Developer

Thanks. I think the timer adds to the difficulty in further levels. Certainly could do without for more casual feel.
