How does your game fit the theme?
The sinwaves you control are meant to be different electromagnetic waves, which are a natural phenomenon that are measured with a logarithmic scale. (The theme sort of got away from me)

The sinwave mechanics were pretty fun to control once I understood what was happening - this works well as a game basis! It definitely needs a little more to make it feel like it fits the theme though, even if it's just a bit of window dressing in the form of a story & some slight restyling. For example, I could see this repackaged as a game about controlling the growing scale of a galaxy, pulling planets into the right orbits by using the sinwave mechanics to adjust their positions. There's plenty of ways you could take this concept!
Very Interesting concept. I liked that I was able to manipulate the wave. This could be a cool game if executed properly
Super cool concept! I still think that the game fits the theme, I hope you guys do more with the game haha. The controls were just a bit confusing, maybe explain that in the page content or in the game. I had a bit of fun playing this game haha. Hope you have time to play our game as well!
