An absolute masterpiece for the little time involved. Love the concept of the game. Would enjoy a lot seeing more levels. The concept is very interesting, the level design is nice, the level of polish is accurate.

Some music would have been nice, but we can't complain.

Impressing work, congratulations.

Developer

Thank you! Sound and some more content would be nice. Not something I'm working on at the moment, but we'll see! Thanks for playing.

I did not have high expectations looking at this game, but it plays really well, and the vector art direction really works well with the simple concepts that you are conveying :D  Great job, wish it was longer but that's a game jam for ya :)

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Very fun game! When I first started I wasn't expecting it to involve as much reaction time as it did. Well done!

Fantastic colour scheme and the whole game was so smooth! Wish there was more

Hi!
This is a pretty nice and relaxing game. I liked the simple and smooth graphics, very satisfying.
You might wanna fix the 5 balls part tho. On my first playthrough the smaller ball got stuck between the bigger ones. I thought the game ended there, but then I had to refresh the page and start again to see the rest of it as pressing R just showed the slope and didn't go back to the last checkpoint.

Developer

Ah, yeah there is a small risk of that happening. Only managed to reproduce it once in quite a few playthroughs. But thanks for the feedback!

Thanks!

Love it! I wish there was more levels to play around and some sound effects and/or music, but still I really enjoyed playing it.

Thanks! I had quite a lot more sketched out in terms of content. But for such a short jam I needed to keep the scope down.

All I can say here is wow. I love it, it's SUCH a great little concept and so well presented! The font is awesome, the use of colour is great. One small bug in the room that says "checkpoint" doesn't actually give you a checkpoint ;) but I'd love more of this. A great little puzzle game. Seriously well done.

Developer

Thank you! Do you mean the second checkpoint?

Submitted

just replayed it (and noticed the use of negative space and I love it even more now). It's the 4th checkpoint - after the 4 balls fall down, it always resets to the 4 balls 

Developer(+1)

Hmm, to be honest, it's actually working as intended with the checkpoints. But I do realise how that particular one is confusing.

Submitted

huh, I expected it to give you a checkpoint where it says "checkpoint" lol
