cool concept the levels i manage to beat were pretty well designed but its pretty hard to get to 3 stars and it feel more like luck was involved instead of skill

Good old marble maze, very fun to play, i think they should bounce less of each other

Took my a while to realize that the hamsters have a tiny running animation in their wheel, that's cute!

the visual made me feel a bit dizzy, playing it on the phone probably could help a bit

Wish this had a couple of easier levels, I'm not good at marble mazes and this got a little too hard too quickly for me.

Very well implemented small time-waster (meant in a positive way :smile:)!

it's harder than I thought. I think that the game would benefit from the smaller levels

Oh my, I think I had an awesome wooden board with this kind of concept. Really loved the hamsters. Also thank god you didn't make a crying or hurtful noise when the glasses shattered :stuck_out_tongue: Also +1 for no blood :smirk:

Love that you also did hamsters in your theme! Very cool game, the fourth level was a great celebration of the style and was fun to see how the game plays without the spikes. Sharp game play and good feel.

Never has been good at those type of puzzles, so all hamsters are going to die here.......

Despite of that - cool entry. Gameplay, visual, music - everything on place.

Quite a fun little game, liked the little hamsters. Didn't manage to save all of them on any level but that is likely a skill issue from me :thumbsup: Also probably one of only a few games I have seen that used Phaser which is interesting. That fact it seemed to save my progress when I accidentally closed the windows was also super coo and let me experience level 4 which is the only one I got three stars on :smile:

Really nice and cosy puzzle game and liked the puzzle game mechanic use with the theme. 3rd level took me a few tries but got it done. The last level was also a nice fun bonus level to finish it off. Nice work was fun to play!
