Interesting game. I loved the subtle sound design and the geometric visuals. What is more the game mechanics are really innovative. Excellent first Compo entry 👍

Very unusual mechanics! Nice sounds + music too. Blending the background blobs into a solid mass was a nice trick.

Unique game, a petty cool interpretation of the theme. At my try, only the mouse controls seemed to work. I enjoyed the unconvetional music and cool graphic design.

Great game, the game mechanics were amazing!

Super interesting physics game! Both mechanically and thematically :) Very unexpected and innovative. That's what I like to see. My best was 77, can anyone beat that? :) I made it to the bottom and felt like a champ. Keep it up!

Very nice original game. Good sounds too. I didn't know which one was iron so I was trying to get the blue ones at first. Moving the mouse causes the player to jump around really quickly, is that intentional?

Managed to get 314, I quite liked it but I must admit I was very confused by the mechanicsfor quite a bit :eyes:

But I like how it stands apart from basically everything else I've played so far, also anaerobes rock.

Nice work!

@gilborn: Thank you! The controls (keyboard, controller, mouse) so far did work on WebGL in different browsers, on Win and on Mac. On what platform did you play?

@mortalslayer24: Thank you!

@timbertoes: Thank you! Happy you enjoyed the game!

@deepinthewoods: Thank you! I was not sure about the sound, good to hear you liked them. Good point with the colors. After the jam I will update the game to make it clearer (I will add level progression, where first you only have red ones). The mouse controls are too sensitive in the current version, I had adapted them to game pad controller axis, and for the mouse I did not do special one. I have to adapt it for an update.

@profan: Thank you! I see, I have to make the mechanics clearer. I will update the game after the jam to have some progression making the mechanics clearer to the player (I hope).

@itzemii : I played it on Windows 10 and played in Firefox and Edge.

I'm not really sure what I'm doing? I assumed I had to eat the red ones (because I assume that's iron?), and avoid the blue ones? But neither seemed to really push me up or down, so I'm kind of confused....

I just sorta wiggled around, but I got a 106!

@icefallgames Thank you for playing. I see, I have to make the mechanics clearer. I will update the game after the jam to have some progression making the mechanics clearer to the player (I hope).

@ripter Thank you for playing. Sorry for the controller issues. The mouse controls are broken on some platforms. Keyboard and joypad should work.
