Absolutely gorgeous, nice idea, if a bit off-theme. Sadly no Azerty controls so I had a hard time testing it :(. Congrats though!

Nicely presented, would need time to playtest and tweak. But as we all know we don't have time for Ludum Dare.

I got up to 318 and then my blackhole decided that I fed it the wrong stuff. It should be grateful that I fed it at all! Nice atmospheric soundtrack!

Loved the art design !! Hard to know if I did the right thing, but I got 400 points and survived 89 secondes

Good concept. I like the consistent graphics and audio. Not exactly matching the theme, but it works :D

One thing that made it hard for me though was that I couldn't figure out how exactly repel and attract work (radius? timeout? etc...).

My character doesn't show up, neither do the white dots. This is kinda preventing me from playing what looks like a good game :/

I didn't really understand how to play. A better explanation in the description would be nice.

I propably did not understand the rules, but I liked the visual style and animation. Was there sound? I felt like there was some faint background music?

Neat game. I feel like mouse controls would be more handy though.

Nice game with nice atmosphere! Was a bit annoyed that I always got the wrong particles.

Nice aesthetic, but the gameplay seems to me a little bit boring. Well done ++

Good game. If force field can be viewed it can add cues how far I can reach with my gravitation. And speed down them, please. When I cleaning one side they sneak from behind.

Nice minimalist theme and interesting gameplay concepts. Kind of reminds me of BIT.TRIP Void a bit. I would say that it'd be nice if the screen scrolled faster, because if you're moving you can see very far ahead. It's also a bit obscure to know what to do, so more explanation in the game would be good too. Cool stuff anyway!
