Neat puzzle game! Since it's about fighting the controls while doing the puzzles, I think that it does what it's trying to do well. I think there's a bit of buggyiness with some hit boxes, though, and I was sometimes sent back to the start even when I didn't visibly hit something, and I'd occasionally go right through one of the other squares without a collision detection.
Overall, though, an enjoyable game that's actually not as stressful as the name may imply, though still fun. :)
Although it was hard to move around accurately, I liked the "feel" of the controls. There was a certain... pleasant elasticity.
One of the levels -- it had a green section in the middle, entrance on the left, exit on the right -- seemed to have an invisible bouncing box.

a bit rough to manage, but still fun and I understood what you were going for :) Nice job!

I like the high inertia, but the collisions seems very imprecise. Good levels and the difficulty is well tuned.

I can see why this is called 'Stress Test' because if you're not calm, you won't be able to breeze through this XD. Really loved how the controls worked and how it sets apart from every other simplistic 'guide something across an obstacle course' game out there. Overall, a pretty fun and challenging game.
Controls took a while to get used to, but I guess they need to be difficult to prevent the game from being too easy. As others have mentioned: some weird collisions. But overall it's pretty cool.
The collision detection needs work, but overall pretty good!
