I mean this bubble is inside a steam machine, and it's fragile, but at the same time bubbles are the most dangerous thing for steam machines because they make them explode. I like how it plays!\nWish you the best of luck!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Darkmax14","author_uid":"1142010","time":"2020-04-22T16:27:37Z","epoch":1587572857,"modified":1587572857,"text":"Really enjoyed the level design and challenge.

I like the idea of the two modes of the bubble, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. The only issue I had was that I wasn't aware of the second bubble mode until I pressed RMB by chance (I'd recommend putting the controls on the ldjam entry page).\n\nGreat entry!

I thought you did a great job at making the bubble feel good to control (the way that it slowly floated up was a nice touch).\n\nIt took me a while to realize that right click transforms you. Maybe I missed the instruction. Great choice of sound! Once I figured out the controls playing through the level felt sort of meditative. You were very generous with checkpoints as well, which I appreciated.\n\nOne potential bug: your description says \"Fixed game end screen\", but when I escaped the level there was no end screen. I just floated away into the infinite void, listening to the sound of the waves...","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Dylan Fries","author_uid":"1077514","time":"2020-04-22T17:07:51Z","epoch":1587575271,"modified":1587575271,"text":"Very fun little game. Great concept but took me a few minutes to figure out the RMB mechanic. I found it quite hard at times, especially the first funnel since the walls were so bouncy. It might be interesting to vary the \"weight\" or drag of the bubble in its two forms. You could slow the \"bubble\" down a bit when it is in its floating form but have it drag less when it was in its \"marble\" form. Cool puzzles and enjoyable music. I also found the walls being very bouncy made it hard to get the \"marble\" into its slots. I'm sure you could come up with a ton of puzzles with this mechanic tho.

I really enjoyed this game a lot. It was nice and challenging, but ultimately doable. It always felt good getting through a tough sequence. \n\nOne issue I had was the end: Once I turned the fans off I headed up, saw a dead end above me, so went back south and through the other off fan. From there I escaped the level into \"open ocean\", and got lost. It took me a long time to realize you have to bump into the dead end. There's no indication unless I missed something telling you that's what you need to do. It was especially tough to figure out in a game where you spend most of your time purposefully not bumping into things, and by the fact that there seems to be an actual way out to the left.\n\nOverall great entry, keep up the good work!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"zubspace","author_uid":"1141104","time":"2020-05-01T19:45:19Z","epoch":1588362319,"modified":1588362319,"text":"Great idea!
