Interesting concept! This bouncy-sliding ball remind me of hamsters, and the hardest part was avoiding the spikes.  The only confusing part is not knowing what they do- and not noticing any gameplay changes for the absorbed items.

Game is pretty crazy. Once I understood space braked. Some of interesting abilities. Love the maggot art under playing as the floor tiles with that crazy looking post processing. Great art direction and music to boot. Nice job!
