Enjoyable little game that gave me a hardy chuckle in reading the description that I was going to be playing a shy little higgs boson particle. I love it.

Interesting idea. The controls felt... loose. That might be intentional, but it results in a somewhat spongey experience where I often felt the fault of a loss was the game itself rather than my inputs. Once I got the hang of the controls I started to make progress and had a much better time.

Surprisingly fun once you get into it. Implementation feels solid and I didn't hit any bugs.

Nice job!

I liked the controls! It's definitely engaging, and the audio is well-made as well!

@fireslash Yes we kept the somehow chaotic behaviour on purpose. It's part of the game to learn to anticipate the oscilations. After 2 or 3 tries, you begin to "feel" it, but it's true there is a learning curve! For curiosity, you can have a look at the "kids" mode (but it's also quite slower) to test a more precise control.

Thanks for your feedback

A great idea, it seems a bit unintuitive to play but really intriguing

Good game, I like the concept but the different mechanics/obstacles could have been introduced more progressively.

Great idea! The bouncing made it a bit hard to control and a little fruStrating, but good fun, nice game

Clever concept and simple gameplay, but it works really well for the theme. :) The Game Over screen is pretty neat, too. Nice work!
