Nice game, I thought that the freezing of the balls felt really good, since it let me organize what I was doing better than just trying to escape them without disturbing them too much. Good job!

Extremely creative and unique game mechanic, plus it fits the theme so well! One not only has to solve sequence puzzles, but also manage grouping the items into the required shapes, platforming while keeping the shape, and not accidentally knocking overly many over the edge! So so cool!! Fantastic graphics, straight forward and easy to understand. The sound effects really do help with knowing what mode the magnet is in. Well done on a well designed game!! 13/10!! :D

Cool mechanics and ideas but I found the physics to be really annoying. Couldn't make it past the second level even though I'm pretty sure I know what I'm supposed to. But the one of the five balls kept falling off the tiny button. I'm pretty sure I was supposed to get the balls in a line with the environment but getting 15 was just too hard. One or two always fell off.  I tried to take a few at a time but then I had a timer to deal with.

The movement and mechanics feel nice, everything is easily understandable and well explained. Good structure with the tutorial being part of the game experience, slowly adding new mechanics. Rather easy to solve as of yet, but there were definitely a few moments where you had to figure out the way to go. Last level really shows whats possible. Not bad, 13/10!
