Really cute graphics and color palette, and the particle effects are great as well. The game itself does feel a bit slow and floaty and could maybe benefit from some tweaks there

particle effects are nice, could use some better feedback on player inputs

I really enjoyed the atmosphere of this one. Between the simple colors and graphics, the zen goal of the game, and the nice wind sound in the background, I could definitely see myself playing this to de-stress. With some tweaking of the sprites to make them a little softer and... I don't know, intentionally low-fi? This could definitely make some people happy on the app store. Anyway, this is a great entry, nicely done! 🎉

I was able to reach 14m! It took me a couple minutes to figure how to actually play but when I did, I really enjoyed the mechanics. It reminded me of older IOS games where you had to survive getting hit. Thanks for letting me play!

very interesting mechanics, but its really hard! i feel like the turning speed might be a bit low. the farthest i could get was little over 6m.

Made it 15.8m. Overall it is fun! It is really slow correcting your course, but the enemies get pretty fast in the end. Feels like even if I have time to react it is impossible to move in time. I like the wind sound, very nice.

Pretty nice little game! I like the idea of inner balance and traveling.

The colour pallete is nice, the gameplay is interesting, it is slow to correct the course but that is part of the strategy. Personally, I feel like there could be more particles! XD, it's a nice game.

This was a very interesting game, it felt pretty unique. I like how it's relaxing and stressful at the same time 😆 The movement mechanic was novel, and I really liked it. It was cool having to either "feel" in which ways the wand would go, or spend your sparkles on a guide sphere. Great job on making so much out of a small set of components, the game is elegant in its minimalistic design.

There's something very calming, cosy, and visually pleasant about this game. It feels super relaxing. I had a fun time, and I think this is an amazing entry and quite impressive work by a solo dev. Well done!

Nice clean looking game! Takes a while to get the feel of the movement but it's fun to experiment with

The floating mechanics are fun! Once I got the hang of them it felt like the game could be a bit faster overall, once I'd set a decent high score (15m 😎) the amount of down time in a run to get back to it meant I didn't replay as many times as I would have otherwise.

Other people have already said it, but I really like the colour palette! The pastel colours look lovely
