Very pretty! I'm not sure about bumping into enemies... can I defeat them, or does it just hurt me?

This was a fun way to kill a few minutes. Although games in this style have seen too many times before, the graphics and audio go well together. Nice job.

I like it a lot. It would make a great music/visual game if you focus more on audio and visual design!

Maaan this game is hard! Anyway it's a nice, simple concept and it's pretty fun trying to avoid the enemies!
I liked that a long DNA could deflect the enemies!
Cool game, liked the music too :)

@Dietrich Epp: If they hit your trail, they get deflected. When they hit your head, you take damage based on the current rival level and the enemy is killed. It might be worth it to do so to reduce the number of enemies on screen, as they evolve and the damage they do to you increases.

I've hard time rating this. The visuals are good, but so simple (I love the tail though), it's fun and adds something to the normal avoider-genre. Nice fit with audio + visuals. I can see some of the theme in it, but not enough for a high theme rating. Good job!

I'm extinct!...i think this is hard, did you compose the music? make me feel like i was in a rave party, trippy

gama11 2012-08-28 11:08

@juaxix: No, the music isn't made by me. This guy: http://los-illuminados.newgrounds.com/ made it.
Not supossed to be easy. ;)

Cool game! Really simple, addictive fun! I liked how the music, theme, graphics and game play really added up to a fun experience - well done!

Aha fun little game. The effects & music fits.

At first I thought that I'am awesoma becouse I killed all the enemies soo fast, and then realised that I loose the game :P

Not sure about evolution. but still fun!

Not my favorite game but it was funny ;-)

Surprisingly fun and addictive. Really like the graphic style. It feels like a finished game.

amidos2006 2012-09-02 22:24

that's incredible game :) I like the sounds and the idea and the effects alot :)

nice fx and audio. not really getting the theme here, rules about colors are somewhat unclear but feedback feels nice'n juicy

darkshadow 2012-09-06 11:25

Nice concept the tail blocking is what makes it stand out.

cakencode 2012-09-06 17:09

I agree with what you said in your post mortem about the title screen, it is quite beautiful!

I apparently don't play enough avoider games if other people are saying this isn't new, but I think you nailed the physics, the controls feel responsive and solid, and it looks distinct and pretty. Having to hit the right wall to gain DNA and then using that as a source of defense when colliding with an enemy to kill it is really cool.

Nicely done! :)

Wow fun stuff. Nicely done with the ramping up of the difficulty.
