the wayward win caught me off guard

Cool and interesting idea! Executed very well! I will say, the game can be made quite easy just by holding left for 1 second, then holding right for 1 second over and over. Still, I could see this being a fun mobile game!

I really loved the art style. Especially the little cloud shadows and the wind animation. The sound effects were decent too, but music would've made it even better of course. Sometimes it was a bit frustrating that going to the sides gave you a high risk of getting trapped by a wall of enemies on your side and a few in front of you. The controls were pretty smooth too. I really enjoyed it, even though it was a little short on gameplay.

Also, judging by your screenshots, the font wasn't properly included in my playthrough (Windows): https://imgur.com/a/UNqUpG7

The font was a problem I figured out after the fact. Thanks for letting me know about it! Thankfully it's not too big of an issue

The physics is cool indeed. I just wished there was something more

Really cool concept, took me a minute to figure out how it works but the physics is cool. I hope you continue to dev this game to add powerups, speed boosts, etc.
