Minimalistic yet addictive game. The gameplay is fun and soundtrack is dope. The game reminds me of old soviet game "Perestroika" about the frog on water lily leaves.

Awesome minimalism, fast intuitive and really brought alive by the 8-bit sound effects.

This was super fun - you could stick this on the app store right now - very unique concept , and like all good games, quick to learn, hard to master.

Nice game! The graphics do exactly what they are supposed to and do it well, which is no small feat. The sounds and screenshake add some nice juice. Speeding through the level is really fun, especially in the larger ones were the paths can easily change while you're on them. I think it's missing an element that forces you out of safe hoops, though, otherwise you can just wait until you spot safe path. Great entry!

Fun game! It's simple but it's super addictive. It remind me of some puzzle game for phones, where it's easy to start to play and you can't stop. The difficulty option is a nice addition. Good job!

I like that simple concept, it really hooks. Music and graphics are pretty simple too, but they are good.
Overall, very good job!

Nice game, well polished! I generally used the strategy of waiting it out and sprinting from green circle to green circle. Maybe some kind of time pressure would encourage the player to take a more risky strategy.

Had a blast playing this game! Simple concept with flawless execution. Great use of the theme. Really dig the music and the graphics are clean. The larger levels have a hypnotic vibe with the rings pulsing at different offsets. It's addicting - excellent job!

Hypnotic and awesome!
You could add a combo to the game: the more diamonds you collect without entering a safe (green) loop, the higher the combo.
