Entry in the "Game Maker's Toolkit game{jam};" for 2019, with the theme "Only one".

In this physics puzzle game prototype, you have only 1 "parameter" that you can sketch a graph to control in each level.  By manipulating the parameter over time, you can complete the level by getting the yellow balls into their yellow goal zones. 

In this prototype there are 7 levels, 5 of which your graph controls the size of the ball, and 2 of which the graph controls the gravity of the level.

This concept could easily be expanded to any number of parameters upon which to base new and interesting levels.

Would be nice if the levels remember my solution. I finished the game fairly fast. Controlling the speed and how the gravity affects the ball is interesting.

There's a lot of back'n'forth guessing, because the editor isn't in-place below and on resize it's hard to readjust to the grid. Perhaps it's intentional to increase the difficulty, albeit superficially imo.

Cool jam prototype. I wish there were more levels like The Big Breakup.
