How does your game fit the theme?
A synonym of absorption is osmosis which is about the movement of water which occurs in this game. Additionally to finish a level, either a certain amount or all of the water has to be absorbed into a sponge.

Nice different perspective on the theme ๐!
GAMEPLAY
Cool game mechanic idea. It did remind me a little bit of the ads for some games with fluid and fire and lava. But just a little bit. Good build-up of puzzle difficulty. I would have liked that the controls were a bit faster I think and maybe an option to some out to check the maze. That last could be deliberate to make it more a challenge? But sometimes I had to guess were to go. But I liked the idea and have fun trying to get the liquid to the end ๐!
GRAPHICS/ART
Simple but effective. The water was rendered very nice. Cool effect.
AUDIO
Good that there is audio, but it was not the most enjoyable soundtrack. After I while it gets a tiny bit on your nerves ๐.
THEME
Fun take on the absorption theme!
Overall a job well done with this unique gameplay ๐ช
Another GDevelop user :)
I really like the idea of trying to get water to flow to a finish line and enjoyed the background music. However, the game did not continue after the second level for me. All the water was gone, but it did not take me to the level menu or give me a restart option. I lost a few particles of water in the fire and am wondering if this caused the level to think it was not done yet.
Thanks for playing, all timer based levels require you to get all of the water to the end. However if you cant get past that level, you can always skip it.
nice and cool idea :0 and the water physics was cool, very nice ; )
Thanks for playing!
If i could have rated audio 0 i would have, that music was just obnoxious. I liked the game mechanics though, i concur the default speed is too slow.
Thanks for playing! All of the music except the easter egg music was more of a last minute thought and I didnt have much experience with the software I was using for the music.
It's all good learning :)
solid mechanic! very interesting. I thought it was much fun. As feedback i think the camera movement could be a little bit faster, but maybe thats my opinion.
Thanks for playing! If you head into the settings you can adjust the camera sensitivity.
