Really fun quick little game, wish there were more levels! I loved the trail effect you implemented and the simplicity of the controls. The rising acid levels really added a fun challenge to the game that wasn't too hard nor easy. Really smart ideas!

Super fun, surprising amount of depth especially for a 1 button game.

Fun little game! I ended up playing this one all the way through. Visuals work very nicely and I found the core mechanic fun. My favorite level was the last one, adding that time element made things a lot of fun.

Very cool, the control scheme is very original. I spent... a while on stomach II. Gives a real sense of mastery in understanding the control scheme and beating the rising stomach acid.

I loved this! I was definitely left wanting more at the end, great job!

Nice game feel! I really like the sound effect you used for the thumping, hit all the right frequencies :) I agree with the previous commenter, more levels would be great! Good job.

Really good game which should be expanded upon ;) Played all the way through but I felt like I should be able to us left/right arrow keys to initiate the rotation instead of needing to do the full circle.. That's just my thoughts :)

Wow... at first I was like, WTF. Then I was still like, WTF. THEN, I figured out the simple control mechanics and found my self thinking "dang, this is pretty neat!" Then, I got to Stomach II. Ouch, that took a few attempts before I finally succeeded. Great job!

Simple game executed well with lots of polish and zero bugs (during my playthrough anyways). Everything you want to see from a jam game!

Great idea for a one button game, would fit well on a mobile too. Controlled well and nothing to complain overal. Stomach II was quite intence, but got through!

Wow Stomach II made me almost quit,say you know its the last level. Love the art, good work!

Really cool game,it would be really good for mobile, I really wish it had a end screen but overall I really liked it.

I always enjoy the creativity in one-button games, and this one was very well done! Everything felt very smooth and polished - the only thing I could have asked for would be more levels!

Very clever with the "hold the up button to start" instructions in the beginning. You get the feel for the controls immediately. Then the one-button control feels very good. It's difficult, but when I fail I feel that it's my fault, not the game. This was fun! And polished. Though short, of course, but that's a plus in my opinion. Funny setting too!

I was a bit confused about the strings that attach to the heart. I didn't get the impression that the affect the movement, but they look nice.

Your source code link is the same as for the game, was that a mistake?

nyunesu 2020-04-20 22:14

@vilcans Thanks for the feedback!

The strings actually don't affect your movement, they're one extra layer of interaction when the heart bumps into a wall.

The source code is within the itch.io page, so both game and source share the same link (:

Great game! Really enjoyed the take on a one button controlled game. Simple concept with tight scope and great execution. Well done.

balgorode 2020-04-21 05:18

Cool game, short, simple and sweet. Not a major issue or anything, but I just wonder why you chose up arrow as the one button to control.

aditya-kumar 2020-04-21 06:19

Really nice sound design and very cohesive visual aesthetic. Short and enjoyable!

noa-calice 2020-04-21 07:39

Superb little game :)! Simple, engaging with a lot of potential to be expanded on! Great job Nyunesu!

chevalbancal 2020-04-21 08:22

It was short and sweet ! I particularly love the graphics. The fact it was a single button game made it even better !

stephan-steinbach 2020-04-21 18:44

Cute! Love the squishy bouncy sprites. I also was trying to figure out what the strings were doing.

mika-la-grand 2020-04-22 16:17

Nice game, I like how much you were able to do with one button. Though, some sound would be a welcome addition.

spirits 2020-04-24 16:15

Little game with 1 only mechanic but felt very good and Polished! Very nice entry

kkrac 2020-04-24 19:37

What's the heart doing there?!

Fun little game. I liked the mechanic. Simple and well executed.

100th-coin 2020-05-01 17:07

The controls were a bit frustrating during the last two levels, but they were definitely unique. Interesting game!

uvwar 2020-05-03 20:35

I like it! Never quite figured out what the lines coming out of me were (speed indicators?) though. With some music you'd have the complete package.

Really unique entry! I really liked playing through it, wished there were more levels and I wished that I could use left and right to rotate counter-clockwise and clockwise. Great work!
