Instead of trying to balance out, I played this game like a MAN and CURBED THE PLATFORM SO THAT ALL THE BONUSES ROLLED TOWARDS ME. It was working flawlessly until the platform reached a 90° angle. SCREW YOU PHYSICS!

Fun game! I tried out the idea that Adrien (above) had - and it completely backfired! :)

I would like to see this polished up, I think it has potential as a Flappy Bird-style coffee-break game. Nice work!!

I like the music! Cool use of physics. I had fun playing your game!

This was really cool. I really enjoyed this mechanic, good job thinking of a great idea to fit the theme. At one point I just gained max weight and waited for balls to fall. Had fun, keep it up.

It was fun to play for a bit, but it feels really cut short. There doesn't seem to be a win condition, and you can survive for a really long time by playing near the fulcrum and tilting the platform to roll everything towards you.

Super interesting concept though, nice job for only 8 hours!

The concept is really fun and I love how it fit the jams theme. Very much enjoyed the game-play. One thing; maybe put in a timer or something to show how long the Red square's effect went for (unless I'm blind and didn't see it :P ) Good job!

This is a pretty cool game :). I'd probably make it a bit harder though, because even if the cloud started tipping quite a lot, I could always just move back to the centre to restabilize everything. Maybe make the equilibrium a bit less stable?

Haha, nice idea for the theme! The mechanics are so good for only 8 hours. The seesaw could use some balancing, but beyond that, it's fun. Good job!
