Minimalism!

fabienporee 2013-04-29 14:44

This is pretty.
I thought the title was refering to outer space, that would have been a cool name :3

Everything about this game fits together so perfectly, The music, the sfx and the visual aesthetics work together so well I played much longer than I thought I would.

deige101 2013-04-29 14:52

man, that effect is pretty neat.

rab236 2013-04-29 14:53

Very interesting concept. I can see why the game was named what it is.

ataxkt 2013-04-29 14:54

Perdy! Really tasty concept, done really well. HTML5 bonus points awarded ;) Not a big fan of the "reveal" SFX though, buzzes my headphones!

It's original

tau7153 2013-04-29 15:11

Certainly very minimal but not to much gameplay.

macroz 2013-04-29 15:16

I like the style but perhaps there could be some progression. The gameplay is more or less aimless wandering? What about an end?

tonic 2013-04-29 15:33

I don't get it, but it's fun to move around in!

fishbrain 2013-04-29 15:34

There's something in that...

Not much of the game, but I like the graphical effect and the mood at the beginning is nice.

sebastian 2013-04-29 15:36

I'm glad you chose to upload it. I think its beautiful.

merkoth 2013-04-29 15:38

Excellent work, very polished and fun, fits the theme perfectly.

tiago-ling 2013-04-29 16:20

Nice take on the theme!

badlogic 2013-04-29 16:48

Fits the theme, not sure i'd consider it a full-blown game. Doesn't matter, i enjoy the composition!

jcvsmc 2013-04-29 16:50

the sound effect made me think i was losing every time until i realized what was happening! xD
Interesting idea though!

geoege 2013-04-29 16:52

I really love the graphics and the way you fit in the theme.
A bit sad to don't see more gameplay or experience range.

tozy 2013-04-29 16:53

There is no goal, right?

kewry 2013-04-29 17:16

Awesome use of the theme!

yezu 2013-04-29 18:26

That's a lot of rectangles :P

rwos 2013-04-30 21:02

No idea what I'm supposed to do but I enjoyed it. :-)

sharbelfs 2013-05-01 11:51

nice concept, i liked the game

exclamation_mark 2013-05-01 12:16

Yes, i think you went a bit overboard with following the theme :D I've seen some games with no objective or way to loose, like "Be the wind" or "Zenbox", and there is a lot of games playing with geometric visuals. Putting it all together, you made something that's hardly a game, but definitely an interesting experience. For some reason, it actually works - it is engaging for a minute or two. That a good time for a LD game! Should you back off a step from following the theme, and gave this game some sort of objective, this could be a very promising entry!

davedobson 2013-05-04 04:28

Definitely minimal! Kind of hypnotic, but not much of a game here. I like the sounds and music - satisfying and moody. Nice work.

komradus 2013-05-04 07:07

Interesting concept, not sure what I was supposed to accomplish but the ride was rather interesting.

mach60kas 2013-05-05 15:30

I quite liked this, though the controls were a bit iffy (i.e. you continue diagonally if you let go of one of two buttons being pressed). It's worth noting that the audio works in Firefox Nightly (probably due to MP3 format?), I'd suggest using .ogg and .mp3 based on which browser accesses the page.

minionstudios 2013-05-14 20:26

I like it! The constantly scaling blocks make for a unique experience!
