Kind of hard one :D But I'll vote for innovative :)

hungyg 2014-08-25 08:32

Took a while to figure out. You are one creative individual :D

frogalicious 2014-08-25 08:44

Pretty tricky but I like the idea! (:

Took my a while to figure out. Interesting concept! Could use a better tutorial/intro to explain what needs to be done.

quetzakol 2014-08-27 09:31

Sorry, but I didn't understand what was the goal, since there is no explanation :/

zeppelincaptain 2014-08-27 09:38

Crashed when I pressed r. Managed to beat a single level, but I'm not sure I understood how I did it. Seems like a cool, but a little obtuse idea, that could use just a bit more explanation.

Bit hard, but cool

perecil 2014-08-27 15:27

Very innovative and hard. However, I've encountered a crash when trying to play the game.

headmade 2014-08-27 16:05

An ingame explanation/tutorial/instructions would be great as I couldn't figure out how I control the flow.

Rather confusing, it took a while to understand what to do. Would be better with a tutorial or a help menu.

ViliX 2014-08-28 10:48

Interesting concept, only a bit hard ;)

makingmyownmusic 2014-08-28 15:31

Have no idea what I am trying to do.

3cgames 2014-08-28 15:31

Tricky! It was fun playing around with the circles and it looks cool. I spent 15 minutes trying to work out how to fulfil the target but failed.

jangobrick 2014-08-28 21:40

What an idea! Brilliant. Hard to figure out, but then a lot of fun. You get 5/5 points for innovation! And that's something not many people get from me.

danidre14 2014-08-29 03:37

Wow! Took me a really long time to get the hang of it, but what else needs to be said, other than good job on your entry! :D

sunflower 2014-08-29 10:54

Definitely needs more instructions; I don't understand the goal at all! >.<
(also, it would be nice to have a visual indication whether the given world passes incoming flow or sends its own; perhaps if it sends its own, the incoming link would be cut short at the very end, showing a disconnection?)

bio-bob 2014-08-29 16:42

This is really cool! To take it further, you could add some music and sound effects, and maybe add a level system; so a level could be 10 letter combinations, then each level could add more letters either to the wheel or to the letter target or both. Maybe an in-game explanation of what you have to do would help as well, because I imagine some people might not get it.

benjamin-soule 2014-08-31 18:40

This is interesting but maybe it would have been more intuitive to switch the link between the two modes instead of clicking the planets. I would also like some sort of scoring instead of just infinite goals generator.

stannellc 2014-08-31 21:36

No clue on this one. I'm not one to spend an infinite amount of time trying to figure out a game goal. Kudos to 3CGames for giving it 15 min. I couldn't give it 5.

chuigum 2014-09-01 19:34

Great innovation! Pretty difficult but good job!

cstudios 2014-09-06 12:36

Definitely a hard one. I could not solve it :(. If i understand correctly i had to have a specific color connections to the letters on the right top. However its realy innovative!

nicepenguins 2014-09-07 16:49

Not blind-color friendly :(

p4nurge 2014-09-10 15:16

Nice clean presentation and a smart concept. I didn't find the instructions as unclear as some others seemed to and got the hang of it pretty quickly. I do think some sort of effect to show when a target planet is connected to the right colour would be good, however.

Unfortunately, my game crashed every time I completed a level which is how I knew I'd got it right each time!

jupiter_hadley 2014-09-14 19:03

Quite a confusing game to play in one minute... I wasnt really sure what to do... I included it in part 24 of my Ludum Dare 30 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/3RN80xyak-c
