As a game, feels a bit random. Soothing. But I can't stop thinking "vagina" when I play this.

As a game, feels a bit random. Soothing. But I can't stop thinking "vagina" when I play this.
I read the explanations and IRC discussions, so I had an idea of what was happening... but that still didn't leave me any particular control over the outcome. Not very fun as a result. It controlled nicely, though.
As a a side note, you seem to have resurrected the Anti-Text theme from LD8.5! If only this had taken place on the moon.
I was doing something, but didn't know what, and then something happened and.. well, it seems like something you should be able to understand, but it's just tad bit strange.
The idea is something you don't see often.
At the start the window is partially off screen and i can't move it since the mouse is captured inside the window.
The win symbol could be cleared.
The one thing I really like about this game is the controls. I like that you have mouse controls. The graphics are also good and the theme itself made me chuckle. :)
Maybe next time, you could make it so that the game doesn't grab the mouse.
bah, you wussies never heard of the control box? alt-space JEEEEEZ newbs. anyways, the game doesn't really have much to it. good ambience, interesting "characters".. but i played it for like 45sec and there wasn't really any reason to go on. i give points now!
The big symbol that appears (at the end of the round??) is a little confusing.
I don't like that the game steals my mouse and I can't move the window around, etc.
Also, I didn't really get how it ties into the theme?
Did not get it.
played almost like Flow. Nice effort
I liked it, but it wasnt fun... to be more specific, if I could hang up interactive stuff on my wall instead of posters, this would be there, but I wouldnt actively engage in it. but its nice :)
Way too difficult to win, I tried and tried, but in the end the AI kept winning. :( Funny game in theory, but the lack of winning chance makes it unfun for me. Some difficulty settings would have been nice.
I just didn't find out how to "play" it. Too abstract. And chain reaction?
Soothing music.
It runs too big on my laptop for me to see it. The idea is kinda cool, but the guy that you let off seem to have little AI.
Interesting idea, but not much fun as a game. Looks, sounds and controls are good so points there.
gooey
So I'm supposed to float around and eat things to multiply or something? Whatever I'm supposed to do, I'm absolutely horrible at it .. or so I thought, I just played it once more and managed to win somehow (if the purple logo thing means I won). Er, either way I didn't find it particularly fun, sorry.
I didn't like that the game locked up the mouse pointer inside (especially since the bottom of the game was off screen and I couldn't go up to move the window). Anyway, it looks nice, but the game itself was very easy and repetative.
Would have been nice to be able to do more than... eat. I guess. I expected to evolve somehow and be able to spear the red guys and eat them. Managed to win once at least, and the ambient soundtrack is nicely soothing.
