Really really hard but also really really fun. With some tweaking to the level design this could be an actual game.

Man, this game really had me questioning my gaming skill. Fun movement, extremly difficult layouts, and a good presentation. With a package like that it's hard not to enjoy.

Fun game, with polished 1-bit art and creative movement mechanics. A great entry overall.  I agree with others saying that it could be rebalanced to be a bit less frustrating, though.

elegant and brutal! it gets addictive fast and i really fond of 1bit graphics. Having the 8 levels available from the get go is a nice detail for a jam game. If there is a nitpick it would be locking the cursor inside the level, dying because the mouse got to the corner of the screen feels a bit unfair. Really cool game

I beat all 8 levels but would say the controls are too picky for my liking. Probably like 50 deaths, I'd have rather seen more difficult levels with a slower moving ball. It's simple though which is nice!

Very fun, short but challenging. The rope getting destroyed if it touches the edge of the screen was a bit too much, but still had a blast!

amazing game, found the music a bit fast pazed, but i like it. nonetheless, the game is an absolute blast to play and gets a solid 10 from me!

The game is super polished! Art, sound, music, mechanics, Amazing!

Maybe add a little image at the start to explain the player can touch the blocks, but not the rope and the cross.

and btw it's really hard, i only got to lvl4

Took me a few tries to understand what I could and couldn't touch, but the movement is smooth and the graphics are simple but work well! The sounds too. Great job all around.

The art is excellent, its like something you'd see at a G Jones show.

The difficulty spike on level 4 was pretty severe. Of course, not being able to touch the cursor is a core mechanic, but it might benefit from some tuning on the rate at which you're reeled in as a function of distance.
