My word I suck at this game haha. I admire how you've taken a simple idea and turned into something very interesting and enjoyable to play.

The ScalemasterWow... this is such a good game. The controls are simple, the mechanics are flexible but offer a challenge, you can always size down too small but you don't score points, and you can be extra risky and go for double scoring with key press. The music had me in a trance the whole time and the visuals worked great with it. Well done! I am going to keep coming back to this one when I just need to vibe.

LlamageddonActually a fun little rhythm game so far. Good puzzle and the minimalistic style evokes a very comfortable play experience. The sound and sfx combination is solid. Good job on this game!

Higher! Faster!!It's a weird take, but I really love the menus. I think that for me, the visual difference between the smaller two sizes of square were not that clear. I think the game would have been more interesting if there were a reason beyond score to not just always be the smallest size. Maybe voids to fall into? The game has excellent vibes though.
