I Like this a lot! it kinda reminds me of wario ware :)

wallmasterr 2013-04-30 00:00

Sweet , this looks realy polished and the rubber mechanic works realy well. And its similar to my entry.

nangie 2013-04-30 00:09

The art are really sweet, it's so cute ! so bad it's so short, want to play again ><

noa 2013-04-30 00:14

No sound, it's normal?

recursor 2013-04-30 00:22

I didn't care for the music, but I love the game play and the art is great. Nice job.

xewlupus 2013-04-30 00:27

@noa the sound is OGG, which some browsers don't support. The W3C standard on this actually comically vague: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/av_met_canplaytype.asp

Uau! What a beautiful game. Also has a nice concept about the erase thing. Really really nice! :)

xewlupus 2013-04-30 00:35

@foxytacy @nangie @recursor @iamorim thanks!

xewlupus 2013-04-30 00:35

@wallmasterr checking our yours now :)

outerheaven182 2013-04-30 01:31

Cool!

galvesmash 2013-04-30 02:55

What a cute little game we have here! *--*

travischen 2013-04-30 06:02

GREAT! Please make mobile version...

kidevil 2013-04-30 10:02

Loved it! Great art style, fun gameplay, and each level had a little something that stood out. It was almost as fun failing as it was passing each level.

juniorus 2013-04-30 11:18

Very cute mini-games!
It's really too short; any chances do you will add more contents?

1weekendstudio 2013-04-30 16:38

woh it's great :) I want more levels please! :D

xewlupus 2013-04-30 20:53

@outerheaven182 @galvesmash @kidevil @1WeekEndStudio thanks!!

xewlupus 2013-04-30 20:54

@jerombd yeah, we have 5 more scenes half-baked that have some fun new metamechanics (e.g. erasing parts of math equations), but we wanted the actual LD submission to be solid.

xewlupus 2013-04-30 20:54

@TravisChen that was the reason for doing it in javascript instead of flash - stay tuned!

sylvain-p 2013-04-30 22:08

We saw the game in progress on the blog thread and waited with it impatience. Very nice graphics, sound is fun and the concept works well.

We want more level! Good job!

kevinzuhn 2013-05-01 04:42

I can't wait to try out more levels of this! I enjoyed figuring out the erasery purpose in each level, and the graphics were really charming.

shawn42 2013-05-03 17:17

Very creative! The levels and puzzles are very nicely done. Feels very polished.

xewlupus 2013-05-03 17:19

@sylvain.p @kevinzuhn @shawn42 thanks!

gamenacho 2013-05-03 17:55

Wow amazing game! This really took me by surprise, great job on the erase mechanic!

cosmicadventuresquad 2013-05-03 17:59

Very Cute! Each stage was very unique, and the goals were so simple you didn't even need instructions. Release more levels! Make it mobile!

dohan 2013-05-03 18:01

Loved the kittens level! Actually I really enjoyed all the game, but the kittens level is the first you have to figure it out because the game over phrase wasn't so obvious :P

bloatedhippo 2013-05-03 18:25

I really like it!

genteijanken 2013-05-03 18:32

Impressive. Really cries out for touch controls.

ilovepixel 2013-05-03 21:08

Nice idea. Nice art I enjoyed the kittens part.

lpcustom 2013-05-03 21:11

Nice job! Music was so-so but overall, I love the concept.

stmatn 2013-05-03 21:14

What a masterpiece! You urgently need to extend this into a full game, maybe on mobile! Really great job.

juaxix 2013-05-04 00:47

Great idea, thanks for be so creative! :)
Really love your draws and the whole concept of mixing them with box2d, thanks for the source too

jorjon 2013-05-04 01:39

Wow! Very artsy. One of my favs.

pixel_phased 2013-05-04 05:34

I've always loved the games where you kind of have to figure out what you're supposed to do. This game seems really polished!

bummzack 2013-05-04 16:24

Haha. Sweet game. The pen-movements seem a bit nervous from time to time. Apart from that, very cool game. I wish it was a bit longer.

angelk 2013-05-05 01:07

The graphics and animation are really top notch! I'm impressed. The gameplay is very cute, definitely that wario-ware vibe. Nice showing!

stustuthebloo 2013-05-05 01:08

Awesome! The objective in each level was unclear, but still great fun for what it is :)

lotusgame 2013-05-05 11:53

Very fun. Whish it was longer.

drkrunk 2013-05-05 23:47

Ahh I just loved this. Everything about it was awesome. The concept was unique and pretty great. I kept losing all the kittens D: Good job!!!

crazi456 2013-05-07 05:45

Yay I did it! Game was very amusing. Loved it!

symmeteer 2013-05-07 06:11

Really polished and good challenge!

miharbi 2013-05-07 14:05

Really loved this game. Very fun levels, love having to figure things out on my own. Also felt very nicely polished.

granada 2013-05-08 12:26

The audio loop is a bit too short. The art is amazing and the game is fun. Nice job!

ithildin 2013-05-08 16:33

The game is really polished, graphics are very cute, and I love the idea, but in my opinion the initial objective is a bit contradictory with each level's goals. Perhaps some text at the beginning of each level (just some tiny, subtle introductory text...the process of figuring out what to erase is quite fun on its own, it doesn't have to make it obvious) could help focusing a bit more.

Despite this small issue, congratulations on an amazing entry! =)

martin_monosys 2013-05-08 21:50

Nice, but a bit short... Also, on the kitten level, why complain when I drop one if the aim is to ... [not spoiling]?!? Anyway, why is that an aim ?!? The rest is cool !!! :)

joe40001 2013-05-09 05:53

Nice art, simple clean gameplay.

2013-05-09 06:23

Guys how to use a source file? Sorry I'm new :)

kill0u 2013-05-09 12:51

Wow :o

xewlupus 2013-05-09 18:39

@Cheesetale - that link's not for playing; it's a repository of our project files, for anyone who wants to see how the game works or mod it.

papagrimbles 2013-05-11 20:18

Lots of fun and quite engaging. Excellent work getting a face on just about everything... super cute!

oye-beto 2013-05-11 23:10

Nice art. I like how each level has a different goal.
Good game :)

heyzeus 2013-05-13 23:09

Love the idea and graphics, good job.

floko 2013-05-15 01:01

very interesting =] the graphics are cute and the gameplay is tight. I just wish there was some adorable background music to complete this game . But it was really enjoyable, nice work :)

kddekadenz 2013-05-17 14:52

Like the art. Autotracker :) Kitties :3

spiridion 2013-05-18 05:41

Fairly well polished, but not much game other than guessing which is the right thing to erase. Loved the art style, but the autotracker music didn't feel quite right (I hate to say that, since autotracker is a life saver for compos). Would love to see this developed more as the erase stuff mechanic is fun. Perhaps concentrate on levels where the erasing is strategic rather than random (eg, more first level or kitten level, less cloud level or space level). High marks for innovation, theme, and graphics!

roupette 2013-05-19 13:23

A very nice experience. I would use the same way to hell-rase my invoices :p.

frogmaster 2013-05-20 11:28

It's so cute...

purplescape 2013-05-20 21:04

Really cute game, I love the sketchbook style graphics. The eraser puzzles were clever too.
