Beautiful!Great concept too!
Good entry, like the concept and fine-tuned controls. I expected some recursive gameplay with more and more detailed level, but still very good idea.
Hi there. I got very confused... the shimmering maze hurt my eyes... well like a good optical illusion does. Scored 27k odd first attempt... not sure how though, had two stars with me at 'end' but was that me winning or losing ? Got basically impossible to navigate maze after about first minute because all choices were zoomed out of screen range. Like the music.
Excellent concept. Hard game.
The graphics made my eyes hurt haha, but i loved how continuous the screen was. Really smart concept. :D
Thanks for the comments so far! I went experimental with the art; sorry it hurt your eyes!
@mrexcessive: You get score for keeping the stars in view, so you want to guide the camera in such a way to keep them from going off screen. Having two with you at the end is good! I really wanted to make a better tutorial, but ran out of time!
Hmm, interesting concept, and it works pretty dang well. I especially like the feel of the artwork.
It was kinda confusing at firts, but it's a very interesting concept that could work on mobile. Good job!
Wasn't sure as to what powerups did or what the score meant. Graphics were nice and polished though. I really loved how it zoomed in on the player. It seemed to convey a cinematic feeling of helplessness.
Interesting game with a beautiful style. I like the scanlines, although they can make the game look like an optical illusion when zoomed out - or is that intentional?
I also think that the game seems very hard. Now I put that in such a vague way since I don't know how well players are supposed to do. I for one couldn't get past 28k points, never managed to have more than 3 stars on screen at the end and never had the time to collect even one power up. I can't judge whether the game is unbalanced or I just need practice so I'm not gonna knock off points for that.
Other than that small potential gripe, I'm loving it. Great job!
It was a really cool concept, but the moire pattern at the intermediate zoom levels hurt my eyes :(
Strangely compelling. At first it messed with my eyes, but I got over that and found myself enjoying the game. The music is really well matched with the game.
Awesome entry! I would just change the wall patterns to see everything better but other than that I loved the game and the mechanincs
Really loved the art style and idea of this game, and with polished presentation like this it was great to play! Well done :)
Nice. Was a surprise the way the camera move to limit your movements and to make it more frenetic that could looks at beginning. Nice entry. Love the audio :D
Very well done, looks very nice, I was a little confused about the goal at first, but it made sense once I was through my first level. Very cool idea for sure!
Neat idea! Fun to play!
reallly good game
