Wow, I really loved this. This has the look and feel of a polished commcerical game. I love the art, the atmosophere, the music, and the gameplay is really clever. Great job!

This was a fun and relaxing game. I think this could totally be a cool game people would pay for if it had some more levels. I didn't even really care about the stars it was just kind of fun to watch the rollies go about. It had just the right amount of user interaction. Super fun. Good job!

This was great! Really fun and polished game. I have really vague recollection I used to have somehow similar physical game as a kid.

Great game, I especially love the art and audio! A minor thing was that the "elevator" in the third island sometimes didn't handle collisions that well, so the rollies would just fall through if I moved it too fast.

This was a great game! Reminded me a lot of Mouse Trap. It was very polished and other than some minor wonky physics, everything worked great.

Cool game!

Relaxing music and nice graphics.

Maybe camera controls could get some work but it's a minor issue compared to what you achieved.

Greate job!

This was nice little game, well polished! The only bug that I found was that the creatures went through my lift. Nice game!

Really like the look and flow of this! The game played smoothly and the controls worked well. Would love to see more levels in this. Chose this randomly on my stream to play, and I'm glad I did! You can check out the VOD if you'd like :) https://www.twitch.tv/videos/766614151 (1:35:00)

Good music, sfx, and that you have to use speed up to get 3 stars. The lever needs a little work on it's speed, I'm thinking switching it one direction will cause it to move to that side instead of directly controlling it.

Very well done, my only issue was the elevator on stage three not working half the time or if you move it too quickly

Nice idea ! The graphics and the music totally fit together. (I also had trouble with the elevator in level 3, web version)

Pretty fun to play and nice concept. Sometimes the rollies would get stuck but since you can just click to remove them its no biggie. It's a simple game but def gets more challenging throughout.

A pretty interesting and funny game with interesting controls and gameplay.

Great game as always :) It seems you didn't make the audio because you opted out (?), but still, the way the audio was put together fit the graphics style and gameplay so much! Really satisfying game to play. The rollies sometimes went through colliders though, especially when I was supposed to lift them up. And it was sometimes difficult to get them through the circle thing with the path through it on the last level. Maybe the path could have been wider? Last thing I would have liked is a way to replay a specific level to improve my score.

Anyway, great game altogether! Looking forward to your next game! :)

Screwball Scrambleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I enjoyed this, dear James! Really innovative and on point with the theme! Your UI / tutorials add a great amount of polish for a game jam game! Even if I was awarded 0 stars for my efforts :(
