Simple, but very addictive gameplay loop! The game also feels very polished, I really enjoyed playing it! Great game :D

This game was VERY hard lol i think mainly cause the workspace is so tiny. But I liked it. It's nicely polished and smooth! Great work!

Also I'd appreciate feedback on my submission if you get a chance!

Developer

hey, I'm sorry i saw your comment too late and the jam had already ended xd

btw I think I fixed the size issue, but I dont have a big monitor to test it if it's possible for you to download the game again and check? and maybe give me a screenshot of how it looks like 

I'll be really thankful

Really tricky little game that while you have the round timer going in the top corner feels better played really slowly while you are learning (positive thing, gives room for players to come back and improve their score!). Might be my larger screen size but felt like the draw area felt a little small. 

Nice work overall I really liked how the predictable pattern of the balls added a level of strategy.

Developer

I'm aware of that issue now, will fix it and reupload after the game

thanks for trying it, will wait to see your name on the leaderboard after the reupload :3

Love the particles. It gets quite hard tho, but I know its beatable if I spend longer. Amazing game, great job :D

Developer

yes it is, good luck beating it :3

I like the idea of this; it's simple and effective. I definitely would have liked to play this for a bit longer if I could have played on a bigger window because my index finger started cramping from the precise movements.

Developer(+1)

yes I just learned about that, and I will fix the game size and reupload after the jam, thanks for trying tho

I'll be waiting for your score in the leaderboard next time :3

Very cool concept! I was playing on a large monitor, and the window was extremely tiny, which made it extremely difficult to be precise enough. I hit my limit at two balls. Maybe a thicker shape outline and a larger brush?

I love the design, though. I feel like every jam, I'm always most impressed by these minimalist concepts that do away with all the bells and whistles and just find an elegant core premise!

Developer

oh, I didnt know that the screen size is fixed, it was supposed to be full screen, I'll fix that and reupload after the jam ends
exactly, I am a solo dev so drawing a whole game and adding sounds for everything or a story is very time consuming and we only had 4 days xd

Very unique idea satisfying to finally beat the levels. It took me 10 minutes to get past all the 2 ball levels then you went and added a third ball :( Maybe I'm just slow heh

Developer

good job on beating 2 balls, and good luck on the 3

Submitted(+1)

Fun, but when the 2 circles show up it becomes next to impossible...

Developer

keep trying and you can do it, I believe :3

Submitted(+1)

A really simple concept, but very fun too! I can see this expanded further, with more complex shapes and ball patterns.

Developer

tyy, I'm planning on adding more stuff after the jam
