It is a simple game, but fun. I had a bug at some point where 2 circles spawn at the same time, so I can't pass it on. Anyway, nice work! :smile:
JFI: I found a bug during playing. It did not affect my impression but I think it's also good to know about bugs

When I make double click instead of single click I have two rings simultaneously and I have to start again
The game feels really relaxing and pleasant. Graphics and audio are both assisting perfectly in that regard. I like the use of gradients for the level. Overall the colors could use a bit more variation. It's nice that enemies are distinguished from the environment by a different color. Maybe the player could be too?
The game fits the theme nicely as the player is going deeper into the whirlpool of juiciness. The challenge could be a bit complex to keep the player engaged a little bit longer. I know it's a short jam game, but if you want to continue with the project it would be interesting to explore timed obstacles that would turn on/off. Maybe the player could jump back to previous layers to avoid some enemies coming their way. This would add nice risk-reward mechanics where safe-playing players could decide to play it safe and wait for better opportunities vs. aggressive players going for really close timings. Combo bonuses for fast transition between layers could also make the game more impactful and push the player for more risk-oriented gameplay.
Overall nice entry. Well done!
