Interesting game! I included it in my Love Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

"Sinewave but" it's not a sinewave? Reee! 0/10 IGN.

Seriously though, fun idea for an arcade game, I like it.

Took me a few seconds to realize I need to use the mouse. Nice and simple to play, good job

Pretty enjoyable!

Very challenging.

This feels good - sort of a flappy bird but with a frequency - I like it! Great job!

Solid game mechanic here!

I really liked the simple controls and the complexity of the movement, I see a lot of potential specially as a mobile game.

The graphics where fine, I really liked the color switch when you pass the 5000 line (I got to 8032 so I don’t know if I missed other cool things?). My biggest complain here is the floor, I thought I couldn’t touch it first. Also the powerups look all the same to me (I’m a deutan color blind person so there were a few colors that look very similar to me). Your logo is great!

Regarding sound, I liked that you went for simple tones and different ones for the powerups that make you bigger or smaller, but I believe that’s something that can be improved.

A very nice entry! Thanks for participating in this LÖVE Jam. Have fun playing and rating.

I am not really good at this game but I really like it.

Fun to play!

Made it to 2813 points! Super simple concept but very fun to play in practice! :) Like how you employed the jam theme into your game.

Cool idea, you can get familiar with the controls. But I felt like some power-ups were significantly harder to get than others.

game is called Sinewave Surfer, you’re actually a triangle wave. misleading

that being said, nice gameplay concept! the powerups are a little difficult to collect though. i wish they were bigger or just generally farther away from the blocks you’re trying to avoid
