I love the game concept and execution, very minimal but predictable and with fast learning curve, and really challenging!

But good! The movement felt challenging and fluid, but not unfair, and I was able to largely adjust to it and hit #1 on a few levels. The music choice was great and fit the game perfectly. My only real gripe is that the falling boxes spawn too quickly and I found it way too hard to avoid them when I needed to, but I made it through.

That second pedestal level is hard! It did take me a second to realise that the thrusters weren't pushing the box in the direction they were facing but once I understood that, the controls were smooth. Maybe having the thrusters get bigger or smaller based on their angle would make it more obvious that the arrow keys move the box in a constant direction and don't control individual thrusters.\n\nThe rotating box makes it difficult but very satisfying when you manage to wrangle a spinning box back under control. I liked the amount and variety of the levels as well. You've obviously thought a fair amount about the level design and difficulty curve.\n\nLike @bmanstudio I also noticed a couple of weird things with level resetting. I also noticed that the boxes didn't clear from the level on restart and sometimes my box would take damage immediately at the start of the level. Small things though overall.

I know the controls are supposed to be chaotic and unwieldy but it felt a bit extreme. I would've lower the velocity a little. Was still very fun to try to navigate the levels though.\n\nThe music was kind of irritating and didn't really add anything to the game. Would have been better off just using  sound effects imo.\n\nAlso completely resetting the level each time would have been ideal as the spawning box hazards started to pile up if you failed a level a few times.\n\nOverall, a fun little game chaotic game!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":952802,"author_name":"WeirdBitGames","author_uid":"weirdbitgames","epoch":1683069940,"text":"This is really nifty!
