Move up and down and absorb black dots! Taking one will make you grow larger and give you some points!
But beware of white dots, which lower your score!
Diamonds will return you to your original size!
The bigger you are, the more points you get from black dots, but the greater the risk of hitting white dots!
There is no failure condition and a single playthrough is quite short, but there is longevity in the form of scoring as high as possible! How will you match up? Post your score in the comments below!
v1.1 * Removed rigidbodies from dots and diamonds, providing a big performance boost without affecting gameplay * Fixed diamond hitbox being too small * Diamonds in the Windows version are now colored black for consistency with the browser verson
Great game - had a lot of fun - well executed and good integation of tutorial. Had one issue using up and down caused the web page to scroll up and down - solved by using w and s to move.
You don't see a lot of games with both a high score and no random elements.
I kinda like it though, it makes getting the highest possible score more of a puzzle than a skill test, and that's really cool. I think I got it too. 1132, right?
Had a few issues with up and down controls wanting to scroll the page, but fixed that with entering fullscreen. The mechanics were simple enough to pick up, but it felt a little underdeveloped, and the slipperiness of the controls were a slight inconvenience. The difficulty didn't really pick up at all, and it ended unexpectedly. The audio, however, was stellar. Overall a competent, fun game, but I wish it had more content.
Very clever use of type. As an instrucitonal designer my by day job, I love when a game tutorializes itself naturally, and gives you the opportunity to try a mechanic immediately after learning about it, then shows you how to use it in unexpected ways (in the example of your game, skipping the diamond to earn more points).

Good luck!

My only complaint is that it's a little short!
Good job!
