Simple, but kinda finished. A game about focus.

Controls: M1 + WASD.

Codebase: C + SDL2.

Zips are updated once to fix a performance blunder.
Tools: SDL

WASD didn't work for me. I do not know, if i understand corrrectly but this fits the theme. Eather way, the blackness will get to you but it is only the beginning. Good entry. Keep it up

WASD does work, but you move pretty slowly and the camera is always centered, so it might be hard to see. In retrospect, I should've added some movement indicators to make it clearer.

And, thanks!

Nice game! it was a little confusing at first but then it clicked. I liked all the slow moving blobs with their own movements, they reminded me of lava lamps

For the players: When you start the game i recommend clicking on the white circle a few times in a row before you start moving with WASD. that helped me orient myself better at the start

Nice game, realy tried to survive for as long as possible but just got surrounded and could not move anymore. Some refference on the floot might help to orient myself if I'm moving or not and how fast

Fun relaxing game. At first I wasn't sure if keys were working but then I realized I had to click on myself to start moving. I think it would be more clear if one of those black circles starting on-screen so the movement was immediately visible. Other than that, enjoyed this small relaxing game!

Good start. All is left to do now is to add is:
- several timers
- pickable boosters
- multicolored blobs with different AI options
- permanent upgrades
- in-game shop
- skill trees
- rebindable controls
- voiceovers and facial animations

The game is looking pretty great, but the gameplay and controls feels a bit unfinished.

Simple and funny. I would like a timer and special effects for dynamism.

Not bad, but it does lack a little polish. A (toggleable?) timer would go a long way in adding replayability.

Not a bad concept but needs more player feedback.
