Simple concept, but surprisingly addictive. Neat with only one control.

doubstract 2013-12-16 14:20

cool sounds

lekochen 2013-12-16 14:29

Minimalism! It's simple & fun, well done!

binary_girl 2013-12-16 14:42

bw2801 2013-12-16 15:08

I really like the simple concept. It's fun!

thingus 2013-12-16 15:12

This was a lot of fun! Took me a while to realise that the glowing things were good, and not to be avoided.

thejackimonster 2013-12-16 15:16

Really awesome game..! Cool idea and nice implementation of the theme. :)

job_ 2013-12-16 16:31

I really like it! Reminds me of the old "Copter" game! Nice sounds, it's just neat.

thatguy 2013-12-16 18:32

Well done audio and simple game play make it a pretty addictive game. Well done.

teddy 2013-12-16 20:41

Like the music, maybe make the collect sound a bit more subtle though? its a bit overpowering. good job!

zconnelly13 2013-12-16 20:57

I really love the minimalist style :)

gmfk07 2013-12-16 21:49

Definitely an addictive game! Took me a while to realize that the idea is for you to stay small, but it's still a hugely fun game!

moop 2013-12-16 22:06

Neat idea and nice difficulty progression as you grow. The simple graphics fit the game well.

capitals 2013-12-17 11:55

Fun, simple and addictive. I really like the music!

kirbytails7 2013-12-18 07:20

Aww, the rainbow things are bad, too...Simple and fun.

gamelabbers 2013-12-18 20:09

Simple, fun! Didn't expect this when looking at the start screen. start screen is ugly imho, but the simple style in the game itself is cool :) The game progresses a bit slowly though.

diptoman 2013-12-19 10:45

One pixel, one control, nice! Minimalism at its best! The graphics could've been better, but overall it's really addicting!

glovecat 2013-12-19 11:25

Simple mechanic, concept, music and sound. Well done, I enjoy it :D

ossah 2013-12-19 14:00

Really cool game! Love the use of the theme. Love the power up mechanic too! Great touch. The music and sound effects are perfect!

This would make an epic loading screen game! Or even just a cool mobile game to play while waiting for the bus!

The art style was really cool too. The whole thing was just well polished and really fun to play. Thumbs up!

Nice game. Some color combinations where eye searing and made my eyes hurt (i even keep seeing the same image after looking away from the screen) ouch! Anyways, very nice game.

Hey guys, thanks for the great feedback. I wanted to respond to some of the (in my opinion very fair) criticism:

@TeddyNashor: Not sure if you mean the pixel or powerup-sound. I agree the latter one is a bit loud, but I wanted the powerup to feel powerfull (ran out of time for screenshake)

Gamelabbers: Titlescreen was definitely a quick thing, but I actually think it turned out ok. Completely agree on the slow progression. I would love to balance the difficulty for all levels and allow people to skip forward a bit. The slow started to help less experienced gamers to familiarize them with the controls a lot though.

Chiguireitor: Yeah, colors are randomly selected which results in bad combinations every now and then. I myself am color-blind myself and have problems sometimes. It's not documented, but you can press 't' to re-roll the colors at any time.

michail 2013-12-20 01:51

My highscore : 5050.
The color schemes are horrible - the contrast is way too big and they really make eyes hurt (most of them).
Besides, I like the simple yet addictive gameplay and the audio track.

euske 2013-12-20 12:01

The music is awesome! I like random colors too.

jupiter_hadley 2013-12-24 17:21

Fun simple game, well done! I included it in part 7 of my Ludum Dare Compilation series, if you'd like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/1dYHR5aknGc

danielsnd 2013-12-24 19:11

Very addictive game.

gokuhd 2013-12-30 16:49

For some reason the game doesn't run on my computer.

keymaster 2014-01-06 16:51

Really fun game with decent graphics and good sound!
