pretty rad
pretty cool.
the background doesn't fill the screen on android though :(
it's so clever, however it doesn't really hold my interest. maybe the game could get harder/faster/both as time goes on?
Thanks for the comments. I've added now that the cores move around bouncing so it's a bit more tricky now.
Rad game, it fits the theme perfectly and is fun to play ! The sound work is also excellent.
This really goes with the minimal theme. Great colors. Good work! :)
nicely done! Didn't expect an android port (neat!)
great execution on the minimalism theme!
Great fun! Really like this one.
This is sweet! Pretty easy at first, with a nice panic-inducing difficulty curve to keep things interesting. Great job!
Pretty cool :)
Great atmosphere. More difficult than it looks in the beginning. Gets a little boring after a while.
Chilling mood
Very nice! Clever mechanic, like Eufloria crossed with Missile Command. I just wished the camera followed my core; it was frustrating to have it drift near an edge and be unable to anticipate stuff coming at me.
Very well done, i like the calm and patient mood of it. The audio, in particular, fits perfectly. Gameplay could be more complex, but this is a solid foundation.
Relaxing game, great sounds and simple graphisms. As tctyle said, it would have been less boring with more variety...
Awesome. Interesting mechanic, deceptively difficult, and cohesive and consistent.
Great game. Difficulty is good. Love to play it on android!
I spent way too much time playing this! :)
I really enjoyed playing it on the web, it's very relaxing and the audio/graphics really support that.
I started out playing on the android version which played differently from the web one. It seemed to play slower on my phone which is probably because it's an older 2.3 one. I didn't seem to get enough bubbles back after they disappear so there were periods where I didn't have any new bubbles to spread which actually gave a bit of a tactical angle to the gameplay which I quite enjoyed, but it became to difficult to play.
I wanna play more of this on my phone! :)
Thanks a lot for the feedback. Right now I am working on a new update which will include more enemies.
Great game.
Found a bug, when playing with two circles, let first red hit my circle, since then some red circles were stopping in right top corner without aim to go.
That was pretty tense. Nice strategy of weighing staying near or making a perimeter around.
A game that looks fun to develop! I like the simplicity and the visuals the best
Very amusing and fun!
A very smooth and slow paced game. I liked the concept of growing the cores and protecting them. Some of the sounds got annoying after while though. Good job.
Simple and beauty!
Its so relaxing and simple. It's awesome, dude. Very well done!
Love building walls with the bubbles. Reminded me of Osmos meeds Hundreds.
Fun idea, I like it! Implementation is also pretty smooth.
Very nice. Really like the controls.
Wow nice game !
I enjoyed this, I would love to play a more fleshed out version on a touch screen :D.
The music and gameplay are just so relaxing, I needed that. Thanks for a great game!
Great mood and excellent presentation. I like to think of it as "Shepherd Simulator 2013"... The wolves ate my sheep =[
Guess I'm not cut out to be a shepherd after all.
Really nice! At first I thought I had to mouse over to destroy the enemies but I was pleasantly surprised at the bubble mechanic. All the sfx, and particle effects add to the feel. Great mood!
Really nice game, haven't seen a mechanic like that before. Good visual too keeps you interested and playing. Well done!
Nice idea and presentation. Great use of the minimalism theme.
The difficulty scale from level 2 to level 3 is crazy though.
It's a great concept and is quite fun at first, but the game doesn't get hard fast enough.
really nice but i ended up spamming around the middle.
nice concept and i like the idea with the bubbles. pretty relaxed :)
Love the music
Love the atmosphere and the gameplay. It's also very chalenging! Pretty cool idea, I have to play it on tablet, i may take sense a lot more. Very good entry, I'm charmed <3
Very relaxing. Fun and beautiful. Me likes it.
I like that you just move the mouse around and don't even have to click.
Awesome!
It's simple but hard,
I like the bgm, it really suit for the game.
Good job!:p
I really enjoyed this. It was an nice take on a sorta keep away / tower defense game.
Nice cool relaxing game. Got to a score of 500 in the first run.
Nice minimal graphics! Great job on the mechanics.
Nice game, it gets pretty addictive once you learn the tricks of the mechanics! good job!
For such a simple mechanic this is really great. Good work.
Strangely addicting game. I like its minimalistic style.
I love the ambience of the game, its pretty fun and the graphic style while simple, looks pretty nice. Good game, its quite the challenge as well.
quite good
I love it! Minimalistic and fun!
Nice little game.
This is pretty great! Missile Command meets Osmos, and yet it's entirely unlike either of those. I really like how the growing core gives you an increasing level of difficulty that naturally adapts to how well the player is doing. The music is nice and relaxing, and my only point of criticism would be the sound effect of enemies dying, which gets a bit annoying after a while.
Loved playing it on my phone. This game is really addictive!
Neat. Liked the sounds. Controls were awesome on web version. Loved the change-up with different enemies.
Well done, I enjoyed this. It does get a bit boring though.
On level 1 it seemed like I could win by just swirling my mouse around the core over and over again, which got a bit dull. Levels 2 and 3 kicked me in the butt, though, and I had a lot more fun with my attentions divided!
Relaxing. Cool game. Nice mechanics.
Nice audio. It gives a nice mood.
Great game. Perfectly fits the theme. Congratz!
Really nice game man! I loved the gameplay idea. It could be added on to make a fuller game, but you kept this minimalistic and it was really well executed.
Really awesome audio and graphics!
Pretty cool! I Remembered of Osmos while i played.
I love the ambience and the overall mood; the difficulty scaled very nicely and I really liked how you allow the player to choose the number of cores they want to start with. Awesome job! And thank you again for playing our game on your Twitch stream!

Nice look and gameplay - reminds me a little of my game :)
Pretty cool, I liked the mechanics, especially how you could set up a shield of bubbles that would persist for a few seconds.
Very cool. I wonder how people conceive of this style of game with its combination of vector-y graphics and airy atmosphere.
I loved the simplicity, and the music added a lot to the overall effect, great entry m8!
very cool :)
Peaceful and beautiful. Certainly minimalist. Well executed!
The game is a little stressful, you could try something more dynamic with the movement of the main balls, something more predictive and , with the protections generation to have several ranges, for example...what do you think?
good overall anyway
@juaxix Great idea, I was actually thinking the first movement of the core to be random and then you could generate 2 types of bubbles, one to control the core and other to protect it, this way you can choose if you want to go for a more defensive strategy, offensive or mix between both. Thanks for the feedback :D
Very interesting mechanic, and I also quite like the aesthetic. I felt like it became more interesting in level 2 when it started demanding that I think about it in terms of trails rather than just clicking on the circle I want to take care of. There is no way in heck I will ever get past level 3.
nice concept, perfect for mobile. nice sounds too
Neat! Pretty visuals, music also, well done!
Nice entry. Lovely atmosphere :)
Simple concept but it is really well used! Tempted to try out the Android version just because someone actually tried to make it. Kudos to you for this!
I really enjoyed this game. I think you nailed the theme and found a way to make a seemingly calm starting game get very engaging and tense. Great work.
Good atmoshpere, well made and interesting, kept me interested for quite a long time. But sometimes I felt I couldn't do anything to prevent parasites from getting me due to the bubble spawn rate limitation. I don't really know what to do against this issue. Also, your audio loop could be better :) But good game overall, I liked it.
Planting bubbles to block purple circles interested me. If you continue to develop this, I wasn't sure what would happen when the inner circle filled the outer circle. I could plant many bubbles and they appeared instantly, so that I began to lose interest.
Nice game!
Neat concept! Reminded me of Osmos :)
Nice atmosphere and graphics.
Cool, like the gameply and the colors :) Good game, makes fun!
Amazing. The gameplay is much deeper than it seems at first, I really liked the evolution of strategy that I went through throughout the levels. The quickest way to improve the game I think would be to add in some variations in the pop sounds, as that's simple to do.
Awesome job. Good luck with your ratings :)
Strange combination of relaxing and nerve-wracking. I like the concept, and the background music is very soothing.
Pretty fun and addictive gameplay concept. The music really gave an relaxing and atmospheric mood.
