I enjoyed this! The UI and animations communicate everything very clearly, so it was fun focusing so hard on my breathing lol

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?

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 :)

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 :)
