Good game! I enjoyed playing it.

Solid arcade entry. The polarity-switching mechanic with cyan and red creates a clear risk-versus-reward dynamic that keeps you engaged. The high-contrast pixel art works well for visual clarity, making it easy to read what's happening on screen. Generating the assets and audio via code is also a neat technical approach.

Good job on the project!

Wait this is actually fucking brilliant. Like, seriously really good. I sadly died on stage 3, but not before falling head over heels in love with this.

The polarity mechanic is obviously brilliant in it's simplicity, touching color when that color == good. It's such a minor thing that adds infinite depth to the High Score Chase. People could lose hours or even days trying to find the optimal route here, and that's not even the only extra mechanic. Big fan of the color chain feature, which feels like it was taken straight out of Undefined Fantastic Object. It's another tiny thing that adds scoring depth. That's where I feel this game excels

Bosses? In a Jam game? And relatively engaging ones at that? Insanely impressive! As is the music! The subtle tempo increase in the beginning of the Stage 1 theme is such a lovely little piece of ear candy. I have to finish this. You won me over instantly with this game, I can't wait to see what else you do in any future jams (or just in general), this is absolutely fantastic.
