Love the use of physics in this. Took a bit to get used to controls but then it was real fun. Good entry!

Nice string physics with this game! Very challenging, but fun to play. 

My only issue was with the death screen sound. It doesnt really fit with the aesthetic of the game IMO, and given the sound's length and pitch, it gets a little painful to have to listen to over and over. It might be better if it cuts straight to the menu screen sound. That sound is absolutely fantastic and well implemented :)

Just a tiny thing though. Great job with this game :)

Pretty fun. Before I discovered the slingshot technique by reading the description, I was intentionally getting slammed by the green squares to gain momentum haha.

Did you try it with 4 bumper walls & no gravity instead of just two?

Yeah it takes a couple of tries before you get used to it. No we didnt try that but that would probably get insanse since you would just go faster and faster after every swing XD

Fun mechanic once you get the hang of it. I did run into one bug where it kept a small, red ball on screen and then let me spawn in a second, and both were attached (which just sent the blue ball into a nosedive off the screen. Screenshot attached.

Wow, sounds like a crazy bug, never got that one, do you know what you did?

Was trying to pull the blue ball under a green block for the momentum -- it bounced off my red ball as it was shrinking, and then my ball just never went away when I clicked a second time.
