This is interesting... But what IS it. I thought it was the splash screen at first. Putting a 10 second timer on the exit is annoying. Lack of any instructions or description AT ALL make this somewhat difficult to make heads or tails of.

I'm not sure what I discovered, but I found that... incredibly satisfying. And more so than for anything else I've touched for rating thus far, I felt like I had discovered -something-.

Interesting graphics and sounds... I "discovered" that moving the mouse changes the colors and sounds, hitting keys makes the letters/numbers appear and plays a sound, and clicking seems to make shapes appear. It was oddly entertaining.

TANK MAN and DINOSAUR

mashing and swirling madly about was good.

I don't know how I quit the game, but when it did I was satisfied.

woah. not sure what was that - but it was kinda cool. not much of a game though, more like interactive art. :)

Rob Lach 2010-12-20 22:15

This game is excellent.

stevejohnson 2010-12-21 04:31

This is...I don't even...

When I finally go insane, this will be the only game I ever play again.

Wow. Enjoyed!

Okay props to innovation for sure, this is incredible. One of the coolest games I've seen so far. I honestly think this should be used for therapy.

jagttt 2010-12-22 14:01

Wow this would be freaking cool for a VJ performance. Visual and sound effects are both freaking awesome!

"Interactive Art" most probably. Not a game though.
Not my cup of tea.

I discovered your application gave me a tremendous headache. My submission is a horrible game, I admit that, but it is a game, and hopefully makes you laugh... this made me feel ill... I enjoy color, but please... game competition. You obviously can come up with graphics, next time put them toward a accomplishing something with user input toward an event, or goal...

Woah. Dude.

Innovative? Clearly.
Fun? I had a lot of fun.
Theme? I was certainly discovering things.
Graphics? Excellent.
Audio? Also excellent.
Humor? I lol'd at the tank man, and the whole 'game' is pretty amusing.

5 stars all around!

Wowzers. Somehow, at one point, I turned the whole thing into a peaceful happy non-pixelated heart with clouds. I have no idea what caused that. But I enjoyed trying to obtain the various side-scrolling images. Not at all a game, but variety seems to be the spice of life.

What is this I don't even

furyhunter 2011-01-09 23:58

I remember seeing your posts all throughout the compo and thinking, "man I hope I get to rate that game."

And oh wow. Besides not being able to understand what the heck I was doing, this was great. Trippy and fascinating, it almost feels like you're thinking deep about the images you're seeing and you discover something about YOURSELF - how amused you are by this combination of just plain weird things!
