I enjoyed this! The UI and animations communicate everything very clearly, so it was fun focusing so hard on my breathing lol
very creative, i like it!
It's really not bad at all but why can't he hold his breath for more than 2 seconds?
Nice designs and good concept!
I happy to never inhaled a wasp in real life xD
I liked it. its one of creative works in jam
It's a bit funny that a game about "relaxing" can be so stressful - but it was very fun! The music and art are very polished and lend a great feel.
The only criticism I have (and it's so small) is that the leaf and bacteria objects can look quite similar due to their color - and I would sometimes try to blow away the leaves because I thought "my meditation would be ruined if I sucked in a leaf". Maybe a more distinct or readable shape could be used for that sprite, like a light blue puff-of-air or something?
if it was this hard to breath in real life i would be dead right now.

This is such a nice, (mostly) calming game! It might feel really nice if holding spacebar was inhaling and releasing spacebar was exhaling, instead of just having it be a toggle.
Really enjoyed this one - nice work!
Thank you! :) I actually tried that out and it didnt't feel so good in the fast paced moments, where you have to toggle fast, as it didn't feel so reactive. So i changed it again. But it definitely something that could fit with a bit of tweaking :)
Simple and fun idea! It's well made: art, audio and game design all works. Congrats!
Really nice game, perfect ambience.
perfect loop bro, nice game
great game, more people should in real life calm down and breath like Bob especially in the nature :D
Had a lot of fun with this - entertaining and a satisfyingly simple gameplay loop. Well done!
Amazing concept and wonderfully polished. 5/5 across all points absolutely loved this :D
I think the germ sprite has a (oh the irony) a dirty background so you can sort of see the square but honestly just had fun with it :)
funny and nice. loved to play.
very peaceful and beautiful
A truly beautiful game - calming, with pleasant colours and very easy to understand. Perfect for relaxation, distraction and ideal for promoting concentration through play. A really cool idea!
Ah this is a really creative interpretation of the theme, and the gameplay is simple but fun! I didn't have any sound, not sure if that's because the game doesn't have it, or because there's something wrong with my pc. Anyway, really good job!
Thank you! :) There is sound for the breathing and some chill background music. Also i have sound FX for points and all this stuff :) But sometimes some browser behave differently, so thats maybe why!
Ah it turns out my bluetooth headphone just died xD
By the way, it would be really awesome if you could also rate my game!
I will rate it tomorrow when I am at my Computer and leave a comment on your Page :)
Simple concept and clean execution. Good job!
