I love the idea, I think you fit the combine theme well. The pixel art is very good, and I also love the music. The name is also great, I assume it's a play on words with a Mole in chemistry. I love the simplicity of the 3d models for the molecules and different colors. Good job. Game over screen also gave me a good chuckle. Criticism: The tutorial text is impossible to read. The game did freeze on me once. I also think you should increase the maximum temperature, it's fun just adding molecules and seeing things go crazy. Some particle effects for combining would have also gone a long way.

Thanks for all the praise, and I'm glad you enjoyed our game! The tutorial was added last minute in a rush, so apologies for that! Particle effects are definitely something I've considered adding if I continue work on this game after the jam. Also, if you just want to have fun combining molecules then you can press "G" for god mode which removes the time, power, and temperature limits! Enjoy!
