Nice graphics and sound, confusing gameplay. Responsiveness of the wall you drag around seems weird.

Nice graphics and sound, confusing gameplay. Responsiveness of the wall you drag around seems weird.
Controls feel slow and floaty, making it kinda awkward to control. Was slightly fun for a little bit there though ;)
The window doesn't have a close button here btw. (Windows 7, if that matters.)
Also, no source code? (Looks a bit like you used an existing engine?)
Graphically its impressive at first glance, but the awkward controls make it impossible to play.
If the controls where a little sharper it could be fun.
The audio really added to the tension :)
I couldn't get a single box.
So far a lot of games where you control the walls seem to have control issues. Is it an attempt to make things feel heavy or something?
The sound is indeed very good to build tension, but the wall movement is very awkward...
Interesting idea, could have been better explored...
Agh, frustration. It's hard to squish the 'humans', too; sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Nice look, though.
Managed to beat it.
It's too easy to get stuck, esp. when you try to retreat. Also, the wall as the light source is not too good an idea; the dark parts are uneasy on the eyes.
I have to say it's pretty frustrating, in particular the somewhat odd controls. Didn't manage to kill more than a couple of the boxes before giving up; there's just too much of those defenses after a short while. Enjoyed visuals and audio though.
The controls were pretty frustrating, but I liked the idea and the defenses were cool (good idea with the sound speeding up).
