original magnet game, cool

This is a really fun mechanic! It's different from most of the other magnet-themed games from this jam. It's a bit hard to get used to at first but it became enjoyable once I did. Great work!

EASY 5 on gameplay from me. I thought the magnet swapping mechanic was really cool and felt quite polished for such a quick jam. Some of the levels, especially the final one were pretty hard, but still very fun. One of my favorites I've seen so far. Great job!

Cool game.
I got a little stuck sometimes but figured it out in the end.
Good Job!

Beating each level felt really satisfying! I love the glow on each of the poles; it gives a clear indication of its range of magnetic field.

This was really fun! I dont know why but when I tried it on my windows pc it was really laggy but it worked on my mac (maybe it had something to do with the new version of chrome cause i havent updated it on my mac yet). I really liked the instant switching and the music was very nice :)

Enjoyable game, uses the theme really well. Levels are tough, but not unfair, which is nice. Controls take some getting used to but lead to some interesting gameplay for sure. It is fun to analyze the route you have to take to beat a level (where to put your cursor, when to switch polarity) especially in later levels. Game took me 25 minutes to beat but didn't get boring at all during that time. My only criticism is that sometimes it feels like some mechanics are up to chance, (even if they are not, skill issue on my end probably) most notably when you have to switch states while on a magnet to get a boost repelling you away. For 72 hours, this is a really good game, good job on this.

Liked the music and the concept of using a magnet to progress! The movement was a little bit confusing though so I couldn't pass the 2nd level (Skill Issue). Good luck on the voting period!

I gotta say, the gameplay was really fun! A bit difficult in some levels, but once you get used to it it is a fun mechanic :)

Really nice job!

PS: I couldn't finish this level haha
