Some description would come in handy, so I wouldn't have to download an .exe for blind. The game is simple, but hey, there isn't a game of the same type in this LD :)
It's fun to play too.

A time limit could have been cool, but still it's a great mouse movement practise :)

I'm not entirely sure I understand what the game is about.
While the mechanics are solid and I didn't see anything broken I wasn't sure what I was doing!

The smoke plumes are really cool, but I feel a bit guilty destroying so many universes with such a happy face lol.

This smiley... <3 I don't know what's going on, I just gain score and it's awesome ;D

A good start to a lot of great games. Without any time limits, scores, or ways to quantify what you're doing it's very much like the classic Atari 2600 games: play until you stop. Still, a great job on what's included!

Without any set of rules this game looses most of it's potential. Start by adding a loose condition and then see if you can find some way to make the gameplay a bit more exciting =)

Fuck off the gameplay a bit more exciting. This is gg style!

No idea what is going on, but like it :)

Nice game,,, but i don“t now if i understand...

Interesting game, but after 320 score I get bored. The boiling effect is really cool, bug the gameplay should be more various

Very extravagant graphics :)

And one detail attracted my attention: How did u made that wooden texture? (it's on 2nd screenshot) It looks so realistic!

member_of_jabber_conference 2014-08-27 12:29

This four shimmering textures. http://gyazo.com/a0f53af419680ec2ad04a85b9feccd48

What you have works well. And the graphics are nice and clean.

The game is simple but addictive

perecil 2014-08-27 17:44

Not bad, for a start :).

ventura 2014-08-28 12:25

It would be better if you add something that makes you win and die or lose something, there are not challenges.

ventura 2014-08-28 12:25

However, for a start is nice :)

ponk 2014-08-28 13:27

Nice smoke animation and cool effect on the ground

caranha 2014-08-30 16:37

Congratulations on finishing your game!

Some quick and easy tips that would make a game like yours much better:

* Add an score -- your game is about reflexes, so trying to achieve a high score seems like a very likely goal.
* Add a lose condition -- something that the player has to fight against. In your game, you could give the player some time limit, so that the goal is to get the highest score before the end of the time limit.
* Add some sounds: if there were sounds when the universes are destroyed, the game would be 10x better :-)

Good luck!

@caranha

Thanks for the advices, but the game does not pursue the aim liked the broad mass of players. All I wanted to do, it already has.

Very strange that you did not notice the sounds and scores.

kirbytails7 2014-09-02 01:32

Simple and nice. The little smoke puffs are nice.

cstudios 2014-09-03 21:38

does it have something to do with global warming? I like the effect when the heat gets stronger.

dancingmad 2014-09-08 19:41

You should really add a little HOWTO in your description, even if the concept is really simple :)

mach60kas 2014-09-11 13:38

I maybe felt a little guilty destroying all those universes.
