Great visual design and music, but the controls and gameplay are not intuitive enough.

Great visual design and music, but the controls and gameplay are not intuitive enough.
The game lacks concept design behind it. I haven't noticed any space limitations either. Also the UI as well as physics feel way too buggy.
Doesn't fit the theme of the jam and controls feel somewhat crappy. Aside from that, I absolutely love the sound and visual effects, great job.
What a nice game! Although, I don't feel like it matches the theme, nonetheless the game itself is very interesting.
But I want to mention something:
a) The circle is hardly noticeable
b) It feels like we should move much more in the center of the circle for some reason
c) It would be very nice of you to render approximate trajectory as we move our mouse!
d) Have you thought of swapping controls? It seems more logical and intuitive for me to force to be more the bigger the distance from the cube and not otherwise.
Other than that, great job!
I like the graphics and overall aesthetic, the general concept behind the game seems great. But speaking of improvements, I'd add achievements so that player would understand what to do better at the beginning of the game :)
What a satisfying game! The camera is moving a little bit too fast and the placement logic was rather unintuitive for me at first. Other than that, I really like it, and it also somehow fits the theme well!
I really like this game, it seems to be the best-fitting in the theme category :) I'm rather shocked by how well the balance is, it is not boring either when it's easy or hard. Awesome work!
Awesome graphics, visual effects and atmosphere! The music is a little bit annoying and the goals are not all that clear.
Web version on ldjam is broken!
Graphics are very cute, but a "placed" count in a corner and a little bit of hovering / holding outline would look great :)
I'd also love to see (or rather hear) some sound effects. Other than that, I like the game and how it was made, great job!
The graphics part doesn't feel consistent overall, the game is not connected to the theme in any way.
Very creative idea and great realization overall as for a demo! I'd totally add some sound design and the controls are fading out way too fast as per me, though.
I love the transitions, haha :) Although, there's a bug if you go to the second room and return to the first one, you'll be softlocked (a -> b -> a -> softlock)
Also boxes' gravity is way too slow and the game lacks visual / audio effects and possibly better animations. Other than that, graphics look cute, great job and thanks for the game :)
Simple, but pleasant idea, I like it. Besides that, the controls don't feel that responsive and the music ruins the mood.
@diadem-games More like clumsy, specifically the rotation, other than that it feels great
Feels somewhat too easy because of dead zones, UI is pretty.. bad, and drag&drop is also a bit clumsy. Other than that, idea and the game itself are cool :)
The web upload is broken, please, fix it!
