Really nice idea! The game feels really polished and is just super addictive. Some sfx would be nice, but in overall really well done!

Submitted

Fantastic entry, super addictive and just with the addition of a nice sound effect (maybe music?) that would elevate it even more.

Submitted

Very enjoyable game. This feels like osu. Would be very good if we throw in some background music as well, to match the beat or something. Would be awesome since the mechanic and visual is polished already. Good job on the concept and simple yet catchy execution!

Submitted

That was really fun! So close to beating the high score i got 198. This is a great high score type game and the simplistic style fits it well.  Could use some sfx and music to make it pop

Submitted

the art style is nice and it feels polished, I think some sound effects would go nice, or maybe a bit of a challenge, but overall, its pretty nice and relaxing

Submitted

Fun and, surprisingly, relaxing game to play! Would've been even better if it had music but it's still really fun.

Submitted

Great concept and execution! I loved that one of the main inputs is the mouse scroll, it's not something you see a lot, but it fits very well into your game. I just missed sound effects and music, that would make the game even more incredible

Submitted

Real cute, simple yet super fun! Great entry

Greetings from the stream! Thank you for participating!
My record: 205! It is a great test of speed and reaction. But don't play this if you have a broken mouse, haha :D

I really enjoyed catching the circles! I just wish there was some sound but otherwise really fun game!

Submitted

Very cute, adding some personality to the cursor did SO MUCH for this. This is a great jam experience. Simple, challenging, and polished.

Super crisp entry, very easy to pick up, very fun got a high score of 185 and could very easily see how fun grinding for a highscore could be. Also very OSU vibes. Also very impressed made entirely with JS? Awesome work!

This was super fun and such a smart and elegant use of the theme. Sound, music and a leaderboard would be nice, but It's such a simple concept executed really well! 

The style is on point, nice and clean and the animations don't leave anything to desire. I like the concept but feel like it's missing a pacing aspect, music matching the spawning circles would make it perfect. Nice to play nonetheless

Submitted

I loved that it was a simple mechanic that was super enjoyable and has a great variation of play experience.

Actually the "combination" stage and single dot stages going back and forth really was great for breaking between intensity. Great Design!

I could really see this being even more complete game with just a small addition of features, a wonderful work!

I like the simple premise and can totally see this a speedrun to get the highest score. I would add, if not already there, higher points the faster you match a shape and also a leaderboard. Maybe even a way to see your last score as well. The eyes can get in the way of telling if I have the right scale especially when smaller circle spawn inside of larger circles and they are easier to miss

I got 188 woooo!

Submitted

Amazing entry! Got 226! The spawn design is really on point, feels super smooth when a line of circles appears, or a little circle outside the frame pops. Great work!

Submitted

215! Good stuff man

Submitted

Quite addictive would make a great mobile game if you could figure out controls
