Nice idea that could be developed a bit more to include more shapes and figures. Nice for a mobile game.

I like the idea that edges of the game matter and bend the perception of lengths.

Seems fun, but the sticks are really thin, so sometimes they're hard to catch, and since they don't fall at the same time, sometimes the short stick is too far gone before I can tell that it's the short one.

Same thing Test User said. Considering the background is white, the color outside the app is white, it makes it VERY hard to know how much time you have left (web version)

The things the previous commenters are complaining about are what made the game interesting imho. Very direct interpretation of the theme. Like+

Thanks for the feedback, everyone! I wanted to add more shapes, variation in movement direction, etc, but I'm just glad I finished something my first time.

This is one of the best uses of minimal game components while still having an interesting game.

There is nowhere near enough distance to fall to tell which is the shortest, and sometimes there are 2 almost identically short. very simple, didn't seem to have any audio. It is only 48 hours, but even my first entry like a few years ago wasn't anywhere near this simple.

Very minimalistic indeed! Good job on the idea and execution of it!:)

Can't get far :) But game is nice.

Sometimes, they came so far apart that I didn't get a chance to compare them. Other than that it is a solid game concept!
