Overall: great game with nice and simple graphics, cant-get-out-of-my-head musc and real challange! My current favourite!

Innovation: even the name is original - what to say more? absolutely original concept, with challenging implementation!

Fun: couldn't stop playing this! (...until level5, which seemed to be too hard :D)

Theme: do levels in 10 seconds repeatedly. A bit more than the first thoughts, so it's also highly rated.

Graphics: loved the spinning pixelstars! Menu is way too simple, ingame textures are too few, but fits perfectly for the game! I especially love the player and the hologram sprite.

Audio: two soundtracks! TWO SOUNDTRACKS IN A LD48 GAME, DAMNIT!
Humor: menuface is funny, and even music implements some humorous factor without any exact sign of being humorous.

Mood: maybe the weakest point. it's just a game. perfect for that, but still just a game. and no more.

HAHA this thing is incredibly annoying!
Good game, probably one of the most finished I've seen yet on this LD.

Nice game! I love the ghosts, and how they push you around.

Loved this game. i really like the "ghost" feature and the fast gameplay

Awesome!

If you're killed by your clone, is it suicide or murder? :P

Graphics and level design are really good!

The concept is pretty cool, but I'm not in love with the controls. I think it might play better if the movement speed was a little lower. The premise of having your clones collide with you seems like it's got some real potential that could be explored further than you've taken it. The sound effects are pretty good, and the music is great. The art is alright - clean and easy to read, if not exactly stellar. The interface looks great. Overall, a cool idea that I think could use some refinement to be more engaging.

@Dooleus, thanks for great feedback. I'm pretty happy with how this game turned out, so i think i will at least polish it a little bit more. I'll definitely take your comment into consideration.

This game sounds awesome, but for some reason it I couldnt open it on my pc. (Window 7)

psychomonster 2013-08-26 23:45

This is cool. Same opinion like Katamori :D

Liked the idea, got through all of it.

Is it possible to score more than 4 in the final level? At first I thought that I should get three stars in every level to actually beat the game, but it seems impossible because of the last one.

Music fits perfectly!

I've probably missed something... I think there's a lack of explanations and/or tutorials. :/
Anyway, great art style and sounds!

epicspeedturtle 2013-08-28 16:09

@HD408 Frankly, I haven't scored more than 3 in the final level myself. I just thought that since it is a final level it has to be really challenging, but it seems that i just went overboard with it :C

Awesome entry! At first I thought that I need to outrun my clones hehe. Loved the art style! The clones pushing you around is a very good concept.

hypnohustla 2013-08-30 11:35

I really dig the graphical style. Felt a bit frustrated with all the pushing but that seemed to be the point. :) Solid entry.

garethiw 2013-08-30 14:03

Confusing at first until you realise you just need to get to the end without getting buffeted by your clones... then it's kinda fun. Jump sometimes seemed unresponsive, but that might have been from getting pushed about by clones.

tobiasw 2013-08-31 22:18

The concept is pretty cool, but the pushing always seems to happen so fast. It feels less like getting pushed, more like getting instantly teleported back or something. More feedback and less instantaneousness would've probably been a good thing there.

The music is really nice, I like it a lot! I had to turn of the sound though - for some reason the 3-2-1 sound was extremely hard on my ears. Ugh.

For some reason I was really fascinated by the rotating star in the menu. A nice execution of a concept that leans on the work of Braid and Canabalt.
