good foundation for a game :)

this was simple yet elegant, had fun figuring it out. Once i realized i could change the track that the ball has traveled it all clicked. Really fun concept that id love to see explored further!

I had fun and I liked how robust the loop system of the ball was the fact that I didn't encounter any bugs was actually impressive.

Great job making it in 1 day!

its a really good concept, wish it was not physics-based and controlled by code, cause the ball slips out easily out of the loop. but the concept is really good and definitely something you can expand

Thank you for playing, this means a lot to me.

Yes I had a choice to make, do it fast and dirty or perfect and never. I thought code controls will still have bugs, might as well do it fast.

Btw if you can tell me when slip occurs? I would be very grateful, (one case I'm aware of is when you rotate tile while ball is in that tile)

Really fun way of doing the theme and even with just one level it still shows off a lot of potential.  Also still lots a player can try in one level - what's the shortest route I can make? Can I make a loop that goes across all the squares etc.
Its a nice mechanic and makes a strong foundation for an interesting puzzle game. Would love to see you make more rounds for this in the future and see more of your ideas!

thank you this means a lot to me. knowing someone played and explored my game makes me very happy. I will try to find time and finish it, with many challenges and round and level editor.
