ah ok that makes sense! first of all, great job for your first jam, it's very visually appealing. i thought when the score went red it went into the negative, but i must've been confused. also bug fix suggestion, on the red stage you can hide offscreen, so you never get hit by the red candies :) i still had a pleasent time playing your game! good luck on your future endevours! (and yea it could be good to cap the points somehow so they don't scale to hundreds of millons quite fast) i had fun playing it :)
