Cool concept! However, you should hide the mouse cursor, as if it goes outside the window, it'll unfocus the game when you try to throw a ball.
It's rather cool atmosphere when you start reaching higher and higher, glowing cubes rising slowly... :)
Unfortunately, perfomance of your entry is very low on my machine :( So, can't rate...
Nice game.
Nice atmosphere with the ambient background music and the glowing point lights.

Cool game, a few beautiful moments. Does the game ever end? I played for a few minutes and got a pretty high score, but i found no way to restart except for restarting.
Shooting the cubes in all the directions was really fun.
Jumping on them was too hard.
Not sure how it fit the theme, but as a game it's fantastic. The morass of cubes is fun the look at and dance around. Music is nice and subtle too.

There are really great moments, but it seems heavy on the hardware sometimes x)

One of my favorites. Congrats !
Cool concept. Music is really oppresive ++
The game was really fun! I enjoyed it! Its just the game's theme didn't really match up with Beneath the Surface
Great simple game concept but challenging, will be definitely giving this another play later.
Nice concept. Liked it a lot :)
Cool game :) The audio great !

I love your help screen, brilliant idea! I thought the controls felt a bit floaty for a game based on platforming though.
Also, and this is probably more just a personal preference, but I don't really think a first person view works for this. A third person view give you much better feedback about how close you are to edges, that sort of thing.
The lighting from the balls is a good idea, I really liked the look you achieved.

Oh man, I really liked the feel of this game, reminds me of a scene from Laputa! Quite difficult to play, but a lot of fun to try.
Really cool ambience, with the music and the lighting and everything. And a neat concept too. I feel like the mouse look was a bit too sensitive but that could just be me.
Hi. Love the look as this plays, especially the light source on the ball. Fun toy even without the height game.

Awesome concept! Definitely hard because of the floatiness though. Bigger cubes might help.
Idea is very interesting. Need more in game info, but this is understandable for the 48 hours game. Visuals are great.
Looks good, but the physics get in the way of the gameplay. It could use some other background to help orientate yourself.
Control's a bit hard for me.
