First of all: Thank you for taking the time to write such thorough reviews, that really means a lot not only to me but to everybody you wrote one for. One problem in our corner of the internet is that everybody is looking for attention but nobody is checking out other people's work. So a heartfelt thank you from me and probably a dozen other creators.
Your game plays great, the loop is definitely there. I tried it kinda late post updates but I am happy that I did, the effects really stack. But they serve a purpose and are not just thrown on for show, which is always nice. Good balancing for such a short development period and so little time to test.
Have a great day, week, and see you in the next jams :)
