The game is great! I think the minimal graphics could actually have worked if you had access to a 'glow' shader, and I really like how inventive the mechanic is. Also the game loop is really fun. My highscore was 260 (until i found I could drag click, but that only boost it to 270). gg 😀

A very fun game ! I liked the concept. You can make it better by improving the graphics.

Fun little game. I Realy liked that you could choose to move the balloon or move the spikes. it gave the player the option to play in different ways. i got a score of 630 (with the pushing spikes tactic). the graphics could be improved but the simplistic style also kinda fits the game. also the sound design is very nice. 

overall very cool game. keep it up♥

Simple but really well made game, the sounds are perfect but it's  sad that there is no music. 

Good luck in your programming journey !

The game failed to launch on my device.

i think the audio mixer is the problem

Sorry to here that.  The Exe download should work on most Windows computers.  I included a python source code download as well in case someone wanted to try and get it working on a device where for whatever reason the executable file doesn't.  Really, though I wouldn't actually expect anyone to take the time to figure out how to do that for their own personal devices.  (Especially with 90 other games to play!)

Anyway, I appreciate you taking to time to play and report the bug.  Thanks!

Very cool game, I liked the mechanics a lot. This idea has a lot of potential if you can incorporate some cool art with it too. Good work!

really cool concept and the execution is flawless, also I really like the sound design, good game.

I don't know about "flawless", but we'll take the compliment.  :) Thanks!

well flawless in the scene that there is little you could do to make it cooler, basically you did a really good job on converting the concept  into to reality.
