Now THAT's what I call MUSIC!

terra 2012-04-23 21:08

I would definitely like to see more levels :D

mattchu 2012-04-24 00:33

Heh, neat idea. More levels would have been awesome.

OWWWWWW

So fun! I really like it :)
Nice sound and idea!

smvilar 2012-04-26 04:11

wtf...

moonmagic 2012-04-26 04:25

Thanks DiscoFish! Most of the sounds are mouth noises, pitched up in Nitrotracker.

moonmagic 2012-04-26 04:36

Also everyone, thanks for playing. I am making more levels as we speak; check back when you are not doing important things with your lives!

robcozzens 2012-04-26 04:50

Wow... I'm guessing you came up with the idea while under laughing gas? ;-)

xblinkedx 2012-04-26 04:50

Wow that was really interesting. I'd like to see more levels, and that they get more complex as you go. But all in all I liked it. Also, the music is really interesting, i like it.

This. is. insane. Just wish it was longer! If it consisted on a bunch (3-5) of levels/minigames like the first one, I think it'd do great. I honestly love the weird art style and mood!

marudziik 2012-04-26 09:37

Truly in the indie spirit, but damn - too short!

mikesoylu 2012-04-26 18:17

I like it!!

deejorg 2012-04-26 18:55

My only complaint is that it's too short! really liked the idea and mechanics.

zeh 2012-04-26 20:04

What is life but a continual search for escape of what ails us. The root canal as an allegory is a great way to cover the human condition. Bravo, sir.

Loved the mechanics, graphics and audio. Would make a great lengthier game, if only to reinforce the notion that life is not a short ordeal.

This is cool, but only one level? Seriously?

whilefun 2012-04-28 18:44

pretty cool. I like the sound/music and super low-fi graphics. I wish there were more levels though (the 2nd level in the post-compo was cool too)

angryshroom 2012-04-29 05:44

The music in combination with the low-fi graphics and the simplicity of the game make me think this was taken from some sort of hacked NES cartridge that's possessed by a tooth-demon. Now what really creeps me out about this entry though, is that I say this in a good way... You've really managed to create quite a mood here.

jimmypaulin 2012-04-29 13:49

Congratulations on a great entry! The graphics are great, nice responsive controls, and good mood and sounds. The theme is well addressed but as others have noted I'd happily play more and explore the mechanics of your space more thoroughly; poor Terry!

moonmagic 2012-04-30 04:21

Thanks for the lovely comments, everyone. It's so heartening to have people play this weird thing.

I've added another level to the post-compo version, putting the total at 3! I have ideas for a few more; we will see! Next build: WIZARDS?

philhassey 2012-05-06 14:00

Yeah, really cool game. Needed more levels :)

sheepolution 2012-05-12 17:30

Sad it's so short.

several 2012-05-12 17:38

Excellent work on further development! In the post-compo levels, the visuals and multi-tasking/disparate elements to hold in mind border a bit on evil (to the extent of wanting to stop playing and take an indefinitely long break), but VVVVVV did that too (and, I think, somewhat less interestingly, as far as I have played).

sodaware 2012-05-13 11:26

Nice concept, if a little crazy. Love the graphics and overall style, just wish it was a little bigger.
