Seems that's GLaDOS on Android.)
Nice idea! Good job!

2014-12-08 06:18

Very original, good job!

jarry 2014-12-08 08:40

Haha, nice job and good concept. The voice is pretty nice.

benmcnelly 2014-12-08 08:43

Whatever, I like the numbers. /me takes judgmental game AI too personally (lol j/k, nice game!)

valtaroth 2014-12-08 08:45

"Silly, useless picture.." - This game cracked me up. Very simple concept, yet strangely addicting. :D

groydis 2014-12-08 08:47

Hilarious. Well Done! (good work on the voice acting btw)

igneousmoon 2014-12-08 08:48

I absolutely love this, wonderful use of theme, art, humor and twist. Seriously well done!!!

:D

nuclearnapalm 2014-12-08 08:52

Whoaaaa! That was unexpected! Most original entry so far! Awesome job!

soron 2014-12-08 08:54

NICE job, dude! The voiceover was great, and a nice opening to the little world you've got. I'm only sad that I "died" before seeing all of the things :(.

jaloko 2014-12-08 09:16

Boy did that make me laugh, nice!

kedume 2014-12-08 10:38

I love this game. It's sorpresingly very adictive. Nice concept and implementation.

P.D: Sorry. I've made op-out the ratings of my game by error :-( You can vote it now

kedume 2014-12-08 10:42

I love this game. It's sorpresingly very adictive. Nice concept and implementation. You broke me with the real rules XD (spoiler).

P.D: Sorry. I've made op-out the ratings of my game by error :-( You can vote it now

caporaltito 2014-12-08 11:02

Stupidly addictive. I was like "WTF is this?" and then "OMG, I spent ten minutes on this game! This is awesome!". Then I pressed S and I was "Wow! That's a really interesting game!". I even found the snowman.

The graphics and mechanics are simple at first, yet this is fun and addictive. The "3D secret" is really surprising!

ilikescifi 2014-12-08 11:32

Evil computer voice!!!

nodoxi 2014-12-08 14:02

Awesome concept!

sundry 2014-12-08 18:38

Original! Does anybody choose to enlarge his green line here?

efux 2014-12-08 22:02

Wow, that was an unique experience. I like the humor in it.

mintarcade 2014-12-08 23:59

I like this wow experience when all of the sudden - wow! It's a whole new game! Thank you for the game. All 5 stars in my opinion!

lun 2014-12-09 12:06

i have liked the lighthouse!

robotloveskitty 2014-12-10 08:20

Amusing cookie clicker action, but with a sassy robotic voice! I played till level 81, where I was so OP that I broke the game >.> Nice work!

trisquare 2014-12-10 13:46

This game looks cool and i really like the cell shading, brings me back to watching my older brother playing wind waker. Congratulations for me comparing your game to a classic, nice job on the game :)

krunoslav 2014-12-10 13:55

Weird game! I like it, very innovative :)
Good job.

nicepenguins 2014-12-10 14:49

It's cool and original :)

dallonf 2014-12-10 15:39

I have no idea why this is so fantastic. Great work!

zeal 2014-12-10 16:17

I was getting quite bored until the level 14 and then boom. Absolute shock in a fantastic way! Thumb's up.

kaa 2014-12-10 16:39

Good idea!

kaa 2014-12-10 16:42

Good concept! Lovely voice and music (garmoshka^_^)

kovalsky 2014-12-10 17:11

Oh god, this this cool!

domicuc 2014-12-10 18:48

Im sorry. I Love your game XD. Also check my project if you have some time x)

dunin 2014-12-10 18:54

This was a very strange experience...
<spoiler>
after "quit" the first game, I walk on water (there is a way by the mountain near the lighthouse) and then fall, fall...
I don't think it was intentional, but it was an incredible good end... (even I didn't see the snowmen...)

losttraindude 2014-12-10 18:56

Very nice and funny entry! I also enjoyed watching the Timelapse video to take a quick look at how you did handle the lowpoly graphics :D

Great stuff!

rulrite 2014-12-10 18:58

Very nice game; it's worth playing for the surprise alone! I can't help but feel this is a commentary on most freemium mobile games, haha. :P

lmt 2014-12-10 19:52

Really really cool game. Very original. My highest rating so far.

fleegle2000 2014-12-10 22:12

Funny game, the AI is like a mashup of GlaDOS and the narrator in Stanley Parable. Short but great experience. I never saw the snowman, I'll have to play again to find it :). I only wish there was more to do. "Wise choose" - not sure if that was an intentional mispronunciation but it entertained me so that's cool. Great work!

pete_h 2014-12-11 00:39

Seriously great game, snowman was a nice touch :D

chaoscult 2014-12-11 13:56

5 stars, Yarik. Realy cool. Maybe not so cool as Tootta leaves quest :-P

leaden 2014-12-11 15:34

ChaosCult, haha! Tootta leaves is a strong curse, mighty voodoo :o)

orangeez 2014-12-11 21:16

Wow, nice entry! The world behind the screen is nicely designed, too bad there's not much to do there aside from wandering :D
Well done!

zkenshin 2014-12-12 16:54

This was neat, nice take on the theme!

pavel_insight 2014-12-12 17:17

Awesome! Bravo!!!
And I fell into that cyan abyss, you know. :)

pavel_insight 2014-12-12 17:31

And I found a phone. :)

urbanlogicgames 2014-12-12 18:01

Very interesting take on the 'clicker' genre, pretty funny too. I thought that was all there was to it, but then it went in a totally unexpected direction. Good stuff.

sinistragames 2014-12-13 00:31

Not really my type of game. Nice attempt at the humour, though!

kipelovets 2014-12-13 17:33

OMG, this is awesome! A game hidden inside other game, wait it's like whole other 3D world inside a dull clicker game! AI theme is so cool, reminds me of Portal

ludum-dare-riga 2014-12-14 18:40

Haha, nice take on the theme! :D Not sure I really passed it trough -_- Is there a full pass trough.

simonchauvin 2014-12-16 10:21

Mind blown! This is so great, I was in the matrix

logun 2014-12-16 11:12

My fav game from this LD :) You get a lot of stars (not so far from perfect) well done.

marcellus 2014-12-16 12:21

reached level 28, game begining to get boring, you need more upgrades. then I asked myself how do you get in the goat tower, then I woke up. Best entry I tested by far, congrats !

lukezaz 2014-12-16 19:56

Great game with an awesome twist! Played twice so I could find everything, and decided to 'finish' the mini-idle game both times just for kicks.

lereveur 2014-12-16 20:10

I really -really- liked the lesson that this game give to players. Arts are pretty well too. I think this one would deserve to win the LD 31. :)

evergreen-games-ludum-dare 2014-12-16 20:53

Amazing!!! the first part was addicting and then my mind was blown!! great voice acting, great visuals, great message. i went back and played it 3 times so i could explore everything. i love the snowman :) . i managed to get in the water and had to throw myself off the world.

scam 2014-12-16 22:07

This is awesome. The 3D "secret" after dull button pushing is mind-blowing. :) Some dialogue lines are also very funny.

saswat 2014-12-16 22:35

Awesome Game. Very Original and innovative.

chaoseed 2014-12-17 00:16

It's pretty well done, but what's the point? I mean, hasn't Bioshock already covered this territory? ;P The 'reveal' is nice, though! I gave you a 5 for Theme, which I don't think I've done for anyone else. ;)

huntthewumpus 2014-12-17 00:41

For me the button pressing game was fun enough, but there was more! :D nicely done, I liked it!

phocker 2014-12-17 02:41

awesome game!

leaden 2014-12-17 07:46

OMG! One folk send to me screenshot of his progress http://gyazo.com/11fcd2820e7da526906d8b6a97e0a0b4
I definetly need to make a mobile version of this game :o)

apiotrw 2014-12-17 08:37

Well made game with a really nice twist

pjimmy 2014-12-17 12:15

very funny time waster, good job

broknecho 2014-12-17 16:35

Great Entry! That was a neat new idea. Well done!

zillix 2014-12-19 05:32

Holy crap, that is awesome. Loved it!

silii 2014-12-19 16:12

You surprised me, nice idea.

binary_girl 2014-12-20 11:26

great game.. took me forever to actually get to the 3d bit tho hah

benjamin-soule 2014-12-20 17:19

This is clever. Very interesting way to criticize the casual gameplay drift.

madball 2014-12-20 18:19

Nice game! There is nothing more satisfying than watching a bar fill, and upgrades add much variety to the game!
Just kidding, I completed it. But I took some time to play the inner game to see what will happen, and I broke it: http://puu.sh/dCxDE/63fff0c2ad.jpg

metalchouchen 2014-12-20 18:51

Nice experience. It's funny also :)

leaden 2014-12-20 22:13

Madball, you broke my game and heart by spending so much time in my creation :o)

okkolobr 2014-12-21 08:33

A great experience. Thank you !

insality 2014-12-21 08:54

wow, great suprise game :D
awesome idea and implementation

erikkire 2014-12-21 11:59

Great job

ScorpyX 2014-12-21 14:44

Demotivator Out of 10
good work sir - i enjoy it

npexception 2014-12-21 17:29

Shut up and take my stars!
Look Simba, five stars everywhere

papygaragos 2014-12-23 17:20

"wise choose" hmmhmm yeah ok...
"bad decision" oh. ooohhh... i get it. (too bad I was already at level 15)

uvwar 2014-12-23 18:47

Well, I fell out of the map. Low poly graphics will never not look cool, and a fun sense of humor. Good job!

klianc09 2014-12-25 10:14

Got to level 106, then I was able to instantly fill the red bar with one click and it just started to bug out and got stuck....

Disregarding this unnecessary detail, really great game and I love the humour in this, but I'm not sure if there was anything substantial to discover besides the snowman...

mekuri 2014-12-25 11:53

Loved the idea- I don't know why filling a bar became so addictive- Even at the end I decided to keep filling that bar for a while :P - Great idea, nice job!

lion123 2014-12-25 14:48

A good interpretation of an idle game as a time waster without actually doing progress in the game. All you do when clicking cookies or monsters - just wasting your time. Upgrades just make you feel that you've advanced, while it still takes you about the same amount of time to progress to the next level. The only mistake is: your enemy is not a robot/android. Your enemies are game designers who know too much about human brain and therefore making very addicting games. That's a 10/10 from me

jpmit 2014-12-25 15:07

Nice work!

nov1kk 2014-12-25 16:16

Great concept!

pht59x 2014-12-25 16:32

I managed to climb up the levels without understanding what I was doing. This deep computer voice must have made me really smart.

martial_cantarel_games 2014-12-25 23:35

))))))

ethproductions 2014-12-26 15:10

Awesome! Most original idea I've seen so far. I wish I could've gone exploring in the castle... ;)

gandalf1209 2014-12-26 19:21

This game made me chortle.

dans17 2014-12-27 01:12

Really original idea. I only wish there was more to the game after you broke free from the screen.

wevel 2014-12-27 02:57

Just so you know you can fairly easily get overflow errors where you cant fill up the green line at high levels.

kabukky 2014-12-27 03:14

Great concept! Too bad some or many players might miss the twist. But that doesn't take away from the brilliance.

lynx 2014-12-27 03:51

Just...WOW...just well done...*clap into thunderous applause!*

Very polished game and I love the low poly stuff. I can't think of single thing to improve or change!

tomvert 2014-12-27 09:52

Pretty cool game with a message, that's quite rare for a LD game. You're in my top 10 I think :D

conk 2014-12-27 12:39

Really good idea, the low poly world is really nicely done (: Funny as well, ticking all the boxes!

hbocao 2014-12-27 14:07

This is the reason I love Ludum Dare. Awesome job, man.

drgeraud 2014-12-28 00:48

Yeah, I love being manipulated ! :D

instant-noodles 2014-12-28 11:37

S is the key :)

sh1rogane 2014-12-28 12:32

I love these kind of game where the "real" game is not what you think it is. Good job!

bobombe 2014-12-28 14:12

Very cool idea !! When i found what S is doing i was like OMG ^^

sk16games 2014-12-28 14:30

Hahaha fantastic game! Great take on the theme!

tonbery 2014-12-28 14:57

Really nice game

reminds me of the witness :)

babajaga 2014-12-28 15:47

Hey what is this about.... WHAT THE HELL!! Awesome.

HelkeGames 2014-12-28 17:31

I love this game! Addictive gameplay! The voice is simply amazing! well done!

el-pepi 2014-12-28 20:43

Great game and message! Very original, I really liked it!

Just one thing, I was able to fall off the map, haha.

arcturusdeluxe 2014-12-28 22:53

Somehow you managed to make filling a progress bar somewhat entertaining, and then the twist. Awesome!

bitserum 2014-12-29 11:02

I'm so glad I played this, though it took me 15 levels to go for the "useless" numbers upgrades; and just when I was getting sick and tired of pointless bar upgrades.
Love, love, love the game!!

indie4fun 2014-12-29 19:50

Wow! Nice surprise!
