Maybe it's just because I'm on linux or something, but I couldn't get anything to load. All the surrounding content appeared, but the game area just stayed white.

Good game, but it's really hard beacuse the time limit... :)

calahagus 2013-08-26 14:08

It was really fun! I think the time limit could be more visible, just to make the game feel more time-pressured.

mitkus 2013-08-26 14:16

Nice idea! I really would have like more time on later levels tough, or some gameplay mechanic which gives more time.

matthias_zarzecki 2013-08-26 14:21

Lovely concept!

A bit surprised this hasn't been done before

Scratch :) Ha, heard of this but never seen anything actually made in scratch, really cool!

Sadly though, it lags, and I'm saying this from a latest generation macbook pro, that's not very cool, especially since there's a time limit on each level, a lot of people will struggle with this.

About the game itself, sadly I can't give you too many points as I've seen this game several times before, and forcing a time limit actually just makes the game harder and slightly more frustrating, but good job nonetheless!

The concept is nice but the time pressure makes me not want to proceed after a while because I always have to repeat all levels to get to the one I failed in (which I just don't want more than a few times). I had no technical issues playing the game :)

Great idea, but it doesn't fit really well with the theme as the time limit make it very frustrating...

tigerj 2013-08-26 18:15

really challenging. I like the concept

xgor 2013-08-26 19:34

Nice game. Just make sure to add source to the file as it's not included right now

doonay21 2013-08-26 19:35

I love the concept! It is hard, and challenging but played it was fun :)

mtrc 2013-08-26 19:38

Great concept! This would be amazing on a touchscreen I think.

rabbits 2013-08-26 19:41

I like the background music

m0n0quartz 2013-08-26 19:41

@Xgor in scatch source file are already include: you just need to click the button "See Inside"

zerkruemler 2013-08-26 19:42

Hey I also programmed something with scratch with my daugther. This is very good for the limited capabilities of scratch!
I however don't like the time pressure for this more puzzle style game

m0n0quartz 2013-08-26 20:19

Thanks all for your feedbacks (good or wrong) :)

stenol 2013-08-27 16:58

Good little game

broxxar 2013-08-27 17:00

This is neat game, but I don't know that it compliments the theme. The time limit just made it too difficult as it went on.

sylvain-p 2013-08-28 00:25

Simple but nice.

recursor 2013-08-28 00:38

Unique puzzle concept. And you did it in scratch. Very cool.

antonijn 2013-08-28 19:19

Very cool puzzler for 48 hours! Good job! Was a bit tough, had to cheat out the timer for me to get to the end ;)

paperblurt 2013-08-29 14:59

nice, simple idea, but don't really get how to play.

rhy3756547 2013-08-29 15:14

Cool idea, but gets way to hard in the later levels since they take a while to figure out. Then it sends you back to the start. :( The graphics are fitting though and I appreciate your use of scratch ;)

ratalaika 2013-08-29 16:43

good job

raiyumi 2013-09-04 04:33

Pretty cool, I liked the music too. But a visible time limit and restart button would be nice.

colapsydo 2013-09-05 10:26

It is a great geometrical puzzle.
I found a bit hard to have to start form level one each time, because some last levels are a bit tough, a direct restart would have been a nice thing.
Also music is nice, did you choose to saturate it or is it a consequence of some post-process ?

m0n0quartz 2013-09-05 18:55

@Colapsydo Yes I made the music with garageband with the basics loops and i have added the Chiptune Effect.
