But when you realize how to move, the game actually plays fine and is a good fun for a while! It becomes a nice challenge later when the screen gets very full!
Great work!
The start felt a bit slow, maying adding some more "point" balls would give the player something to do.
My thoughts for potential improvements:
- Maybe spawn more than one pick up at a time? That way you could reduce the waiting around time without breaking the theme
- Holding down W got annoying after a while, I think I'd prefer to either bind it to left mouse button or even just follow the mouse without any need to press a button
- I would have loved a satisfying little "ding" sound when scoring points :joy: if you take part in future jams, you might find [jsfxr](https://sfxr.me/) useful to make some sound effects
Good entry overall, I enjoyed it!
Good job on this one, it's cool, easy to understand, nice to play, and I found no bugs. And as @matt-barnfield said, some sound FX could really add something to the game.
