Nice concept! The game fits the theme very well, but I think the interpretation of the theme is too limiting for your game. More interactivity would be great and I would like to hear some variation in the sound effects.

Nice - like a more violent Boomshine. As so much of this game is just watching an interesting dice roll, it would be cool to have some results screen achievements - like hitting all the medium ones. The screen shake did get to me a little, as I've been staring at a screen all day.

this is a really fun idea

braindeadgeo 2013-12-16 10:12

I got a bit confused, is it supposed to play itself or can you affect it?

captainnakou 2013-12-16 10:29

Nice realization, effects are good and gameplay funny! Congratz

Love it =)

Don't really know how to play.
But so far, this is the BEST TITLE EVER!

hiku 2013-12-16 14:14

No more need to have skill to achieve high score, I liked it x)

gusanolocovg 2013-12-16 14:38

I to was confused. I thought it was broken the first time i played it. I one line instruction in game could have resolved that. A little to reliant on rng for my taste but, good job.

Interesting game. Feels a very random, but I admire the ballsy decision of giving the player only one click. Would make a good casino-arcade game.

weazen 2013-12-16 14:43

Don't really understand how I'm supposed to control this. Sound is pretty nice.

tommakesgames 2013-12-16 14:44

Quite a cool concept - can see this working on iPhone and tablets pretty well. But the fact that it wasn't really a game - but an autonomous tech demo, is a let down. Still, I do really thing you have a great idea here. Like I said - could be great for mobile.

Really cool. I like the concept. Interesting game. Nice sounds.

windwalkerranger 2013-12-16 15:26

Well, this is the bottom of the "you only get one" theme. Nothing can beat this. You only get one press and one chance and one click :D

feiss 2013-12-16 15:48

the concept is quite nice! but the game itself is not quite fun :) maybe if the cascade explosions were much more fast..

nicotuason 2013-12-17 01:45

Great effects! It's fun to watch but I wish I could affect how the next target is chosen.

jaymeemak 2013-12-17 03:31

Interesting concept and cool take on the theme! But things seem to chaotic for the player's decisions to be really meaningful.

berzee 2013-12-17 04:13

This was great fun, it has the most important element of these "chain reaction" games which is that slow-motion tension of waiting to see if someone will stray into range at the last...possible...moment... and I liked the gratuitously flashing text as well. =P

I was going to say that it would be nice if the graphics were more than cubes, but then I realized that'd turn it into a game about a man diving repeatedly upon innocently-wandering people and beating them to death. So, um, cubes is probably fine. :P

This looks really good, watching it play out is cool, I just wish there was a bit more interaction :( great use of slowmo!

madflame991 2013-12-18 12:22

Nice chain-reaction game. As a concept, it's interesting and fits the theme. As a game, some levels would have made it more entertaining.

bitslap 2013-12-18 17:33

8780. I like the feel of things and ofcourse the arcady style. I just didnt get how i could do better.

smash-ball 2013-12-19 16:23

Although simple, this game was oddly amusing.

withoutpillow 2013-12-19 18:10

oddly amusing, as @smash ball said, but also meditative. good job on the visuals and sound.

diegocbarboza 2013-12-21 11:31

Nice idea. And great effects! But in the end it feels too random. Maybe with some improvements it could be a great game :)

rnlf 2013-12-23 00:51

Haha, even more random chain-reaction stuff than my own :-)

I like the intro effects.

xaychru04 2013-12-23 10:45

Nice concept, it would have been better with some upgrades and challenge, like a way you can interact with the sphere. Good job considering the little amount of time you had! :)

badlydrawnrod 2013-12-23 18:02

Very clever, making it "you only get one move". Surprisingly fun despite the fact that you can't do much after you've clicked, but I think there's scope for expansion.

matx 2013-12-23 19:54

Nice effects, but overall quite plain.

diptoman 2014-01-03 13:53

Interesting idea. Though it mainly depended on the starting position, things were hard to predict, so I guess it comes down to luck. Had fun playing, managed to get about 8k in 5-6 tries.
