Really like the graphics and music of this game... very calming. I am having some trouble figuring out how to get the character to jump from one color to another. I am able to move it around to the side but when i change it to blue it starts floating upwards and nothing I do can stop it. Cold be user error or a bug somewhere. Overall nice concept, keep it up!

Neat idea, I didn’t counter the same bug couldn’t correct it once it started. I love chill calming games, best I have rated so far. Congrats!

Very chill game with good artistic direction and music! Gameplay and movements are kinda hard to get used to it tho

Music and graphics all very calming. The shape attracts/repels the stickman if he's the same/different color is interesting.

Thank you for your comments, I would like to point out that the little high-pitched noises in the music are rat songs.

Beautiful interface and excellent tutorial screen. The gameplay itself felt a bit uncomfortable, but overall, it was fun to play

A nice game idea and very relaxing to play. Controls felt good and I enjoyed the simple but pretty artstyle.

Visually the game is stunning, combined with a pleasant music, it builds a calming and relaxed atmosphere. You took pretty simple graphics and made them look incredibly stylish.

Controls are a bit hard to figure out, there is a learning curve. And - yes, if you change to blue and you are already in the air, nothing can ground you, even changing colours or anything else, and you just float endlessly upwards.

Seems like I can't change to beige, so these are obstacles I have to avoid; I like that the player has to figure it all by themselves, but maybe something could be done about endless floating, maybe even just sending the player back to the top circle if he goes far up :)

Clever and fresh. I like it. A game to find tranquility at home when the rain is falling outside with headphones on. The main gameplay is not easy to understand (*maybe I have to read your explanation before - sorry for that*), but after a while, I can play correctly. The music is cool. A tiny, but solid entry. Thank you. I wish you the best ++

Very neat atmosphere, harmonious. The controls are a bit confusing at times, things don't work as I want them to, but when I do get things as I wanted, it's neat to float around. Although I did manage to land twice on the beige 'planet' and still stay alive itnerestingly, probably some glitch there.
Awesome idea that could really be full game with more features and polishing the systems. :v:

The music is great. The art style is simple but I love it. I have a hard time playing because of the character bugs.

I like the idea, but it's too buggy, it seem it randomly jumps to a white spot when I'm walking near enough, and there's a weird glitch when I somehow fly away to the upper part of the window lmao. I really like the art, it's so chill and aesthetic :ok_hand:

Nice, very calming and the graphics are interesting. I liked the scaling of the level as well.

What caught my attention the most were the graphics; they're very beautiful and truly convey a relaxing vibe! I also enjoyed playing, but the mechanic of jumping between colors had a tiny flaw. But other than that, everything is just right! Nice game!! :)
