The animations are great. Love how the blocks leans, jumps, and flips :)

Nice work!! I like how you can stick to the walls, and the idea of slowing the bullets is great to!!

Wow, awesome!
You did well to tune so much the player controls, it's really responsive! And, while simple, The graphics are well polished.

Great game! :D

I really loved this! I want to check out your source :D Great animations, really really solid gameplay, and awesome concept. Nice work!

shugor 2013-08-27 01:47

I liked the controls a lot, as well as the difficulty curve over time! I'm not sure if i just accidentally turned something off, but some music would have been nice too~

mklee 2013-08-27 06:57

Thanks Shugor, unfortunately no music due to time constraints. I'll be adding music and sound soon for a post-compo release.

Good gameplay and the animation is great. It's simple but fun to play since the controls are very good :)

love the tilt when moving and other animations. great job giving a block a lot of character. time well spent on polish.

xndr 2013-08-28 11:25

Fun! Thanks!

this game is great!

You can tell you put polish into the character. I was especially surprised when I was able to ninja my way between bullets using wall jumps! I like how the circles element not only effects the bullets, but the character too. Making them choose between safety, or getting to the next 10 sec mark faster is a great game dynamic. Well done!

crazi456 2013-08-29 07:42

Very neat and addicting game! Nice work!

I love the simple and clean art style with bright colors. I double-jumped more than I needed to because I liked watching the little dude flip. Fun game.

nickw 2013-08-29 07:58

So hard at times haha I swear its like when I'm ducking stuff wants to come from the top to take me out X_X. I found the controls really responsive and the jumping/ducking the bullets was fun. You should probably mention you can wall slide too against the wall megaman style : D.

theholychicken 2013-08-29 08:25

Wow this is loads of fun!
Time circles are quite innovative and make the game dynamic.
Controls are smooth and responsive, and the rectangle's animations are really fun to look at :]
Terrific job!

vaalen 2013-08-29 08:28

A love the animations and the concept. This game is really great and addictive !

colapsydo 2013-08-29 11:33

Fun concept. The main character moves are awesome, I almost forget it was just a combination of square.
The evolution of the gameplay with new types of bullet and the random activation of the domes, makes it really fun along time.
It's a great game.

delca 2013-08-29 20:00

I loved teh way the player jumped. The animation is very well done, and controlling it in air is a pleasure. Good job !

kirbytails7 2013-08-30 01:57

Nice job with the visuals.

tsamisaherb 2013-08-30 02:48

Great color pallet. The wall jump was really fun once I got the hang of it.

ossi 2013-08-30 06:54

Wow, that was super fun! Great controls and graphical style. Great challenge and nice use of the theme, creating different aura's for you to use to dodge more bullets. Super fun game!

rylgh 2013-08-30 07:07

Man, the controls and visual feedback for that little rectangle are fantastic. Dodging the bullets was fun but I'd love to control that guy in a bigger game. Great job!

meszka 2013-08-30 10:58

Looks and feels great. Very nice animations and controls. The time circle mechanic was interesting. Would be awesome with some music and sound :)

paperblurt 2013-08-30 17:37

Yet another game with well thought design!

kimidori 2013-09-01 12:42

too few bullet compared to this :P

anyway, good game, 4 stars!

diptoman 2013-09-01 12:47

All right, this was a lot of fun. Loved the smooth movements and the minimalistic approach for the graphics. Plus the way he jumped was pretty cool, so just had the urge to 2x jump everytime and that got me killed a lot lol.
The theme was perfectly implemented, just missed a good action soundtrack.

larzan 2013-09-01 13:26

Interesting entry, nice grafix, but a bit repetitive.

klianc09 2013-09-01 13:42

Great job animating that rectangle :D I was missing some sound though. Controls were also really smooth, I even used ducking once effectively.

withoutpillow 2013-09-01 16:30

very well crafted. animations, gameplay, difficulty curve. i like that it isn't just random bullets flying around, but that you have to think ahead as much as you have to react fast. like a good bullet hell. great job!

jlauener 2013-09-01 17:26

Very good entry, smooth controls and nice visuals. Sound would have been very nice.

rxi 2013-09-01 19:03

Lovely. The game felt simple but the controls were responsive and the it was overall enjoyable.

bombjack 2013-09-02 10:26

wow! great entry! this game is really fun and I love the simple graphics!

bitowl 2013-09-02 10:38

I wonder whether you have seen the "Juice it or lose it" talk by grapefrukt :D

pierrec 2013-09-02 12:23

mklee used simple mechanics
It's super effective.

megashroom 2013-09-02 15:04

The graphics were wonderful, and the time-circle mechanic was pretty well fleshed out.
I was happy.

zccc 2013-09-02 16:13

I can't tell you great this is ;_; I hope you add sound. It's really addictive.

misfit 2013-09-02 16:32

Nice colorful game. Good job!

mlinus 2013-09-04 17:10

Really great game and the controls are very good too. A fun and well made game! :)

terra 2013-09-09 03:12

Really nice game! Love the idea. Kinda slow at first though, like it's fun when you get to the different kinds of bullets and time thingies but it takes a while to get there. Very cool though, I enjoyed it :) Looks really nice visually, too.

xhunterko 2013-09-11 10:19

Pretty! Wish there was some sound or something though. Great idea!

tammilion 2013-09-15 13:13

Fun game! I first thought that the Font said '2' instead of 'z' haha. I really love the wall jumping. Only wish that the graphics were a bit smoother.
