I'm so happy that you recognized my "balancing" there! It was so simple, but worked right out of the gate when testing it. You just described my entire thought process while creating it. :'D
As this was my first 3-hour-jam, I'm so grateful for the positive feedback! Music, Particles, Post Processing, maybe even a timer + leaderboard will surely come in an update soon. :')
Yeah, I spotted that bug too. It is not intended and I will need to fix it ASAP. It just will feel better.
Thank you very much!
