Known Issues:
- The ball can get stuck in a generator gate. Slightly changing the angle at which it enters it can resolve it.
- Records currently don't get saved (or not properly loaded, at least it doesn't work), they therefore only display the current session.
- 2A: One of the gates launch at half speed
- 2B: One of the gates do not generate energy (makes the level longer to count as completed than intended)

This is too short! I want a version with 20 levels, because this one is a lot of FUN!
Gameplay/ walkthrough:
Try messing around with levels to get really short or really long cycles, or try beating levels with less barriers/bounce, that can keep you busy for a while :) I kinda like going for really long cycles because they tend to have barriers in really odd positions, where you'd not think it'd work at a first glance. For example, this is a 31.4 second cycle of the first level: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aR5xkyLL_D4
Hi really cool game with some really neat levels. I loved solving them, especially because it feels so rewarding when you've actually beat them. I hope you continue work on this, fix some of the bugs, add some more levels and maybe like a timer (which would be optional) so that you can speed run the levels because when i played this i really felt like this was a game id like to try and speedrun :D Anyways you should be really proud of your work, you've got a great game here! :)
