Great game for one day. Got a bit of the one-more-go vibes.  Everything is communicated clearly and one button play is always great

Cool gameplay. I voted. Maybe you could also play and rate my game?

Really cool! Very addicting. I love the power-ups, and the core mechanics are implemented great! I also love the addition of a combo multiplier, it adds a lot of depth to an otherwise very simple game.

A couple of suggestions. I think it makes more sense if the magnet turns the opposite color of the side it's attracted to (since opposites attract). And I would've liked to see the magnet move left and right! Although maybe that would've made the game worse, idk.

Anyway, great job dude! Definitely one of the better games in the jam. :)

Thank you!
Yeah, for some reason I didn't think of that while making it, only thought of it after the time ran out unfortunately.
Making the magnet move left to right would be pretty cool too! Definitely something I'd like to try out.
Thanks for leaving some feedback :)

Had fun smashing the highscores hahaha 8)

Took me a few tries tho, simple doesn't mean easy, great concept!!

Simple and yet extremely fun. I was thinking that when the magnet turns blue it would be repelled from the blue area and head towards the red area so I was initially a little confused about that. I also noticed that sometimes it would slow down and it felt like it was laggy which I'm not sure if that was an intended effect or not. Didn't stop the game from being fun though.  Good job!

Developer

Haha yeah you're completely right about that, I was rushing to enter it in on time and didn't even think about that.
It is sometimes supposed to slow down (power up or death) but the effect does feel a bit laggy, which could've been better.

Thanks for playing! Glad you had fun :D
