The title screen and its BGM blew my mind! Games with BGM are already very rare in SHIELD Game Jams; it's even rarer for the sounds to be polished to this extent. The transitions are also smooth and well-executed. On top of that, this was one of the earlier submissions so... good job!

The gameplay itself is so... alien and unconventional, in a refreshing kinda way. Interesting... but also challenging. I died a lot before I understood the concept. Then I rage quit after dying three more times. Took me two weeks before I revisited the game, then I *think* I got the hang of it... a little bit.

I'm curious what happens if you play the game a long time. Does the "player" trace its path all the way? Does a "game over" backtrack all the way? Does the game run out of memory? I wanna know but, I guess, first I'll have to git gud, lolz.

The game is too hard for me, lol maybe i was not that good in connecting the dots and timing , im not sure with the trajectory as well on where they are going to sway. sound looks fun as well. I wish i didnt forgot to add mine. lol

Very creative gameplay idea! Love all the physics behind it. The gameplay is very skill-based so I think it would benefit for an option to slow things down or to provide a guide to the trajectory so players can know when to hold or let go. Also, congrats for being the one of the two student submissions with sound!

Maybe because I moved the submission date but can you check the permissions of the game to ensure that people can access it?

I have changed the access to public, can you retry?
