Interesting concept!

savethejets1 2013-04-29 19:35

Cool Idea, Great graphics!, Needs some good old tetris music for sure :D

sir_json 2013-04-29 19:37

Cool concept!

Interesting but the web player version is not centered. I cant see the top cube.:(

Interesting mechaninchs. I thinks it's unique. Never saw something similar.
Is it published to Linux with Unity4 ?

cosinep 2013-04-29 19:39

Like the game, interesting idea. Maybe some background music and fast gameplay (Just kidding on the latter) could be good. This is one of those few slow gameplay games on this one. Like it!

Thanks for the great comments! @RealyUniqueName yeah its a Unity4 export.

Huh, great concept, there's something awesome in there.

mekuri 2013-04-29 22:06

Great concept- I've never seen it before. I like the idea, very simple, and still you need to think before you act. Great game!

ataxkt 2013-04-29 22:07

Original! I keep getting stuck with no moves left, but I guess thats a part of the game!

celticraft49 2013-04-29 23:58

I enjoyed this. It was kind of like aggressive tetris.

Like the concept, would be nice to have a bit more pressure with the blocks slowly but constantly moving towards you, though definitely a surprise the first jump. Would have liked it to always give me a color I could use so I can't get in a state where I'm just waiting for death. Have the blocks reaching you be the only losing factor.

Graphics and audio were clean and simple. The gameplay was unique, but the controls took a little getting used to.

haloflooder 2013-04-30 03:00

It's like a jewels version of the Rubik cube

lioneljitro 2013-04-30 03:29

Really cool idea.

I got stuck more than I'd like to admit. But it gets addictive after a little while.

uhfgood 2013-04-30 05:38

pretty unique. You're right you can screw yourself, but it's pretty fun

aestheticgamer 2013-04-30 10:28

I thought that the idea was fairly original for 'fling block' games, but I also found it a tad superficial and too easy to get stuck. It is a thinking game, but I felt that the mechanic wasn't all to fun. That said, you did a good job at bringing the whole idea together, and feel that with some work it could turn out a lot more rounded. Unique twist, but not completely sure a twist I enjoy.

Great game, fits the theme well. Some music would be a nice addition

dedhedzed 2013-04-30 15:06

It's weird, on the surface this looks like a typical shooting game, but it's actually a really clever puzzle game. I've never had to think so much trying to shoot things... Cool stuff!

randomspark 2013-04-30 15:26

Funy game =)

hannardynamite 2013-04-30 15:36

Very nice :) Took me a few turns to get a grasp on the controls. But I thoroughly enjoyed this.

th3dz 2013-04-30 16:24

Nice puzzle logic, the cube in the middle bugged out a bit for me. A little slow in terms of gameplay, otherwise a really cool game.

neight 2013-04-30 23:41

Pretty simplistic, but still enjoyable.

eggdestroyer 2013-05-01 15:09

Very smart gameplay idea, but you may be hesitating too much between reflexes and reflexion. It's some kind of puzzle game, you have to think to avoid being unable to finish it, yet the cubes just come in, encouraging a faster reaction. So I shot everywhere and didn't think that much, because doing both would be too difficult (or maybe you need some more tutorial levels or a difficulty ramp with several levels).

Yet it is hard to achieve such reflexion in 48h :) And the overall experience is pleasant, the sfx are good. Well done.

alucard-j 2013-05-02 22:25

This surprised me, it's a good idea and you actually have to think so that you don't run out of colours before destroying all the blocks. Well Done =]

benjamin-soule 2013-05-11 16:05

Very innovative concept. I was thinking the swap key would ruins the control but infact it's very intuitive. The problem is the color lock : You should either detect the no-possible-move situation and kill the player or adding a key to swap your color ( in counterpart of a block move for example )
