I love this game so much.

First off, the graphics are phenomenal - the subtle particles, the art deco inspired technology, the clear color pallet all work together to make a delicious and enveloping visual style.
The scientific inspiration is an amazing interpretation of the theme, and creates and immediately engaging setup.
The gameplay is fantastic - at first you flail about sending particles all over the screen, but slowly you begin to learn the deeper mechanics - where to place your emitter, how the atom will react when the particles resettle, how fast to blast and when to be still and let the elements balance themselves.

The difficulty and length were perfect - just enough to be powerfully satisfying.

Deeply enjoyable, and definitely memorable - you should be incredibly proud.
Who would have thought my two favorite games so far would be nucleus based!

This is quite the good game, well done. I agree with the poster above, the visuals especially the particles look super nice.

Came here on recomendation of @ugly-robot. He did not lie, very nice game.
I would like to see full mobile (android, to be exact) version to play it.
And am I wrong or music is connected to shooting somehow?

Cool concept, fantastic graphics. It took me a while to figure out what was going on with the beam/reflections, one more line on the instructions may have been helpful. I love the music, it does a lot for the mood of the game. I like the design of the puzzles, once I figured out the basic mechanic the progression felt very good. Excellent game jam entry!

very nice visuals!

This is a fantastic game, so much to enjoy here. You clearly invested a lot of work in the visuals and it really shows. The whole mood is excellent and I loved playing it. Nice work.

Really good idea! The visuals are great, specially the particle system... Had some fun!

That was really really neat. I loved the game!

The only thing I can say is that it happened that the preview ray was not accurate enough so that when I shoot it didn't do what the preview said.

But that is really the only thing, and it's not game breaker. 5/5 :clap: :clap:

simple, but nice concept - reminds me of breakout

First off: Absolutely AMAZING Soundtrack, easily the best track I heard this time around O:

Gameplaywise it felt intuitive yet still challenging. Great presentation aswell!

Amazing game! I loved the visuals and the sound, and the concept is awesome. It's quick and easy to learn, and it's very addictive.

Hope you make more games soon :)

Great game that I think is the perfect length; four doesn't seem like many levels, but each was difficult enough that I spent a good amount of time with them. Also, like people have said, the particle effects and music are huge standouts.

My game is also about atoms and radioactive decay, so I've loved seeing all the different games that went in this direction and how different they all are! Great job :thumbsup:

I have to admit, I didn't understand what I was supposed to do at first. But once I figured out the mechanics, I had fun playing this elegant little puzzler. So maybe add a sentence or two of instructions somewhere on the page for others? The extremely polished style, cool and buzzy audio, pretty particles and fun physics make this a really great game. And I love the take on the theme.

This game is brillant! I love this game
