I literally rage quit on level 1

infuriating

Amazing idea that's brilliant IMO really this game easily gets out of control without need of you coding anything fishy in particular xD

This game is incredible, super frustrating but also so satisfying. Really fits the theme. So glad you made it into the video!

Unfortunate that I never found this game during the rating period, I would've given it 5 stars easily. I think this is my favourite game from the jam, and I'm so jealous of you that you came up with this idea first. It's a fairly simple game to make, but is so much fun to play. You basically found the holy grail of game development

I loved it and I'm sorry I forgot to rate it before the jam ends!

Such a simple concept, but so well executed! Congrats!

Lots of fun! 😍 Wonder if maybe I expected more intense music with the somewhat fast movements of the game, but it was still really nice to listen to something this calming as well. Nice, clean presentation with solid focus on the single mechanic. Wonder what else could be introduced if you made more levels! Post-jam version would be really cool to see. Great job!

Love this! I've played through the one level about 6 times now I want more. Please expand this to a full game. Super satisfying movement. It's fun how you feel like you're in control for a while, then one wrong bounce and you're headed backwards and trying to recover. This has great speedrun potential too!

Great game! It's so simple and so challenging!!

Submitted(+1)

Lives up to the hype! You found an incredible mechanic and played it super straight. It's challenging as hell without being unfair, although I wasn't able to make it to the end. Not sure my heart could take a full game at this difficulty level but I would gladly watch a livestream of someone acing it.

So simple and elegant! The controls just feel sooo natural. Levels were challenging. Physics felt a bit stragne when touching a wall, it felt like the stick stops for a few frames. Don’t know if intetnional bit felt strange. But again, good job, I hope to see more of this.

Has fantastic speedrun potential.

The movement is smooth and satisfying, I just wish it would rotate a bit faster.

Also - great concept, but definitely needs setting. The stick could be a pencil or a pen (with crunchy clicky sound on impact) or something similar.

Saw the stream and I should admit, your game is very clever much more fun than Cauldron 2 on C64 ;)  Great work and great realization, congratulations ! Maybe you can expand the concept with other geometrical figures.

Saw this on GMTK's stream and love it! So simple yet so hard to master.

Simple beautiful, you aren't controlling chaos, but directing it.   Awesome physics, perfect sound effects and sound track.   If you could come up with a set of rules for making new "rooms" I could play this for almost ever.   Brilliant.

As seen on Mark's Live, fantastic control scheme!

Nice bouncing around game!!! Very challenging, but I think that was the point!

Sssssssuper fun. Equal parts skill and random portions. Feels really fair to play while still being out of control. Full Marks! (and not just cuz he said so) Should seriously consider taking this concept further.

Please checkout our little game if you get a moment.

This is a really fun concept for controlling a character! It feels like it could use a little bit of tuning in some areas, but it's a super neat idea! Good job!
