Simple but quite fun and original!

Thank you!

A very simple game on the surface, but with a fun mechanic after you get through the first levels. It was fun to try and balance the size of all spheres so that you don't get a small straggler that goes hyper bouncing around uncontrollably.

Developer

Thank you :)

Very enjoyable game! The idea is neat, maybe not ground breaking but fits the theme and you got interesting variety in the level design.

That being said, while seeing numbers go up and the level variety was fine, the actual variety of mechanics was a little lacking. I've had my fun moving blocks around to alter the area the spheres can move in but the gameplay loop entirely and ultimately revolved around just timing the scaling up to not clip objects.

Nothing wrong with a simple idea in the end and presentation is clean. I've had a good time! There could've just been more done with the variables like scaling different spheres up to a certain number, or actually havin to scale things down, or needing to bring spheres to specific spots. Lots of potential from the simple idea but I understand why stick to the more straight forward gameplay loop.

The game was challenging but fair and the path to success was clear. Great job on an amazing game! Once I figured out the mechanics, I kept playing and made good progress with the moving tiles. My game also has a space theme, feel free to try it out :D

A very nice game! Really relaxing. The last 3 levels took me a while to complete.

Developer

Thank you :) Yep, the last one should be the hardest one)

Really chill game, at first I didn't understand what to do, but when I understood it, I kept going, I didn't finish the game but did get pretty far with the moving tiles.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

It was hard to get to the end, but I feel the difficulty was fair all along. Everytime I lost I felt it was my mistake and the way to beating the level was clear. Congrats on such an amazing game!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback and playing my game :)

Nice Game! Only issue i have with it is the random velocity the ball get each retry it fell more base on my luck that puzzle solving skill.

Thanks

This is really good! I quite liked the premise and execution of the puzzle mechanics, as well as the theming. If I had to note something, I'd say that the scaling SFX can get a little grating given that your hear it so much, and that felt that I completed level 9 mostly due to luck. With all that said, great work!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback. Regarding SFX, I'll try to make them quiet. Btw, there is an option to turn SFX off :)
