Really nice :)

I had some hard times as long as I tried to keep the whole circle out of the red stuff, which isn't really necessary.

The sizing is off though, in the level selection the left most and right most stage button are cut off. I guess "Wat..." is the last stage?

Tell your girlfriend this is a app for a PC :P

Really nice concept, and I like how much you managed to make out of just clicking the screen.
I think my only complaint is that the blue arrows are sometimes too small or should maybe home in on enemies - it's very hard to line up a shot and I often got impatient so I would try to just move around the obstacles instead of shooting back. The song also doesn't seem to loop, but I liked it.
Clean graphics too, looks like you added some nice post-processing. Good job!

Genius idea. It was really funny waddling to try to go in a straight line. Needs a better way to aim the rebound shot, maybe a way to push it around the circle? Great game.

This is great. The double loop mechanic is fun and completely on theme. The minimalist graphics and the simple music fit perfectly. Some sound effects would make it even better.

I think this is a great entry. I think the movement mechanic is really creative, though it kinda felt I was like a a penguin waddling around from the top down. Some more audio feedback for when I move would have made it more immersive. I think all the level mechanics were fun and challenging. I appreciate the minimal art style.

Interesting and fresh mechanic.

Level design feels a bit messy, I could use more space between obstacles, especially when new mechanics are introdused (like cathing-shooting arrows).

Overall, very good job.

Awesome take on the theme! And pretty well done too! It was bit hard for me to control how and where I shoot the blue/yellow arrows as I still didn't get how it works precisely, but apart from that the game plays extremely well and intuitively and the concept is great! :)
