This game is really hard, not sure if I'm just terrible at it, I loved how you set the lightning and the music, they really helped set the mood and how you worried about the detail with the trailing effect

Difficult and a bit tedious in the long run. Has potential though.

Really cool idea, it's quite difficult to grasp but very satisfying. Awesome work for 48 hours!

Great concept and theme. Very nausea inducing though, seeing the screen zoom in and out, especially with that twitchy UI. I stopped at level 3 with slight dizziness.

Took me a little while to get a handle on the controls, but after that it was pretty cool.

Cheers for the comments peeps. Unfortunately I ran out of time so couldn't lower the difficulty. This is the beauty of this comp, lots of good feedback.

Once I worked out the odd controls it was quite good. It was probably too difficult though.

Wow this game is awesome! It's mesmerizing and has that eerie vibe to it. I feel like I'm some sort of reaper trying to heard these restless souls into the well of rebirth...or something like that!

I was super confused for a good number of minutes figuring out what I'm controlling and how things are moving...after that the game became more enjoyable. The levels can become ultra difficult if you mess up the trajectory of each white ball, sometimes it's better to just restart.

Great use of audio!

Neat idea, though it was very difficult to tell how my control was altering the movements of the objects on screen. Great graphics with the lighting and all, and the audio is very well designed to fit the mood!
