WHO ARE THESE CUBES AND WHAT DO THEY WANT FROM ME?!?

01234560 argh... that parts so frustrating...

An enjoyable little platform game. The movement of the cubes sometimes makes it almost impossible to reach the higher goals, but adds to the challenge.

The face was a nice addition. Replayed it a couple of times, and was surprised when I was pushed through the floor.

This is really great.

zuige 2013-08-26 22:26

What happened ? Did I win the game? I have no idea. I had negative seconds!

A platformer where the "platforms" slowly track you is surprisingly interesting to play! I liked the surreal turn the game took.

hbocao 2013-08-27 00:33

The "tracking" platforms is indeed a very cool idea!

Fun little game. :) I managed to find the taco!

I just keep buying tacos and rainbows.

I don't know what I just played, but I loved it and wished to spend more time with it. MORE PLEASE!

Fun little plat...former? Unique gameplay. Maybe a little confusing, which only shows how little I understand the meaning of my own life. *sigh* ;)

I like, how the level changes with every collected "thing" and that everything is moving. I fell through the floor once though and the game runs a bit slow for me.

I'm not sure if I really get it. The take on platforming was cool, though.

bipolarmike 2013-08-27 23:03

I'm confused... but I had fun, I think? Haha :D

The cubes are friendly at first, but eventually turn foe as you try to get to harder-to-reach ones.

I really liked the concept of the floating staircase building up procedurally, but I managed to get pushed off by the blocks! http://i.imgur.com/KAOd4GY.png

Evil cubes! Challenging and addictive game. I finally mastered it and discovered the meaning of life.

delca 2013-08-28 11:05

A interesting platformer! I liked moving the character around and just jumping from one cube to another.

zeppelincaptain 2013-08-28 14:27

I love games that go the surreal way and breaks the rules that they set up themselves (this kind of felt like a micro version of Frog Fractions) and this was really great.

Surprisingly, the moving blocks mechanic was very cool, that seemed like it could be expanded and explored a lot!

I actually really want to make games like this, but I never dare pour more than an hour into it, because people just think it is super weird. Maybe one day I'll make something like this for a full weekend :)

Thank you for this great experience :D

zeppelincaptain 2013-08-28 14:28

Oh and btw, I had never heard of In Time before you mentioned it in a comment on my game :D I think it would fit a game story better than a movie.

First stage reminds me a lot of problem attic. I love how gleefully obtuse this is.

cafeine 2013-08-29 00:15

Good! I don't think I've been stalked by cubes before, that was an odd experience :)

zillix 2013-08-29 03:25

kinda reminded me of boos from mario. I loved the offbeat gameplay! where can I spent my negative seconds in real life?

lalanl 2013-08-29 03:53

+∞ for tacos. :)

jimanzium 2013-08-29 11:05

I managed to get pushed off the bottom of the screen by an orange block

ratalaika 2013-08-30 16:52

good job

tobiasw 2013-08-31 22:17

Did I just play a platformer game with moving platforms? That worked surprisingly well. Are the positions of the blocks scripted? They seemed so random, but at the same time really helpful.

And I am really confused. Did I win? Did I lose? Does it matter? The game seems to be over though.

pythong 2013-09-02 16:18

had negative seconds too. no idea what happended?

casimps1 2013-09-07 01:16

Didn't understand what I was supposed to do on the second stage...
