I really enjoyed that melody. How did you record your guitar?

The menu was a good idea and the music is great, but it broke not long after starting. :(

Very minimal! The music gave it a really nice mood.

The music is really good.

@PixelIndigo: I plug it into my sound card. I spent a fair bit to get a card I could plug directly into.

@Mythalore: Broke how? :(

I'm quite pleased that the music is getting praise. I woke up with 2 hours to go, thought it up, recorded it and put it in there. :D

Yes, the music is pleasant.

I'm sorry to say, but there just isn't much to this game to speak of. Unless I just didn't get to most of it, to me it was just a very slow fade in to white which leaves a square you must then click. I didn't see any noticeable change after a few clicks and I'd had enough. Is there any challenge to speak of? And again, the slow fade became tedious as I waited for a white square to show up.

Sadly, the actual game here is pretty much non-existent and the graphics don't pop with style, so it basically just leaves the pleasant acoustic tune.

@Cybearg: The initial game mode is exactly what you describe, as I was keeping it minimal, keeping to a single mechanic (click on the square when you see it). If you don't want to wait for the next white screen, add black shapes too. If that is still too long, change to fast mode. If you want a challenge, try White and Black shapes, Survival mode, Click and Speed hardcore, and moving.
The aim is simply to see how high a score you can get, the same as your game.

Nice take on the theme. The options are interesting and mix up the gameplay in fun ways. Music is good too and helps establish the mood.

The options make it more confusing than it is, how can I choose if I don't have a clue what's ahead?

@messiano: Hit the start button and find out what happens!

You don't get much more minimal than this. Like others, I really enjoyed the music. I also like how you gave the player so many choices of how to play the game.

angelk 2013-05-05 00:02

I appreciate all the options, and the music really adds to the mood of the game.
