Liked it. But for gameplay you could use both buttons (rotate right/left)

Was pretty cool! I really liked the mood of the game and the idea. I have noticed that spinning while collecting blocks, sometimes causes you to lose. Anyways, cool game!

kiiro94 2014-12-08 11:01

@Catwheel yep, that was why I said in the tutorial that you have to be accurate :D

Fun, challenging and simple. Love it.

adrianulima 2014-12-08 11:11

nice music and very fun game.. I also tried to rotate left xD
great job

donan 2014-12-08 11:12

Simple yet fun. Nice game :D
You should make it a mobile game ^^

lolwned 2014-12-08 11:18

Very soothing game I love it. Could make a great mobile game.

Quite nice game, I think I'd have liked it a bit more if it was a lot faster, for both the tutorial and the actual game.

A short but well put together game. My only complaint is that there are a few bugs when rotating such as squares not showing up if they are grabbed.

Very nice and relaxing game after a hard day playing LD games! Good job!

raincole 2014-12-08 18:47

Cool game! The collision detection is so unforgiving haha.

Great audio. Nice little game.

A very good entry! I enjoyed it a lot. Has a... super hexagon + audiosurf vibe to it, which I like. Anyway, I just thought I'd say that I am not completely convinced by the game over condition, which is triggered if you are hit while mid rotation. I understand the thinking behind it, I just think the game would be even better with more squares to attach to you, and without that game over condition. Just my 2 cents.

Good work on the audio!
Pacing could use some work, a bit slow.

sirjavagaming 2014-12-08 18:50

Awesome music, nice graphics, greate idea

gwenn 2014-12-08 18:52

Fun game, like Hextris but with a square :D Could be great on mobile.

I love games that requires hand-eye coordination.

Wonderful use of audio to create mood. This has the best mood of any game I've seen so far. Relaxing game.

As others have noted, not being able to turn counter-clockwise feels like an odd omission from the controls. It's part of what makes the game feel incomplete.

Very fitting music, game was relaxing.

me4502 2014-12-10 00:40

This game is great, I like how simple yet fun it is.

boxedmeatrevolution 2014-12-11 19:26

Nice innovation, very nice audio. Unfortunately the game sometimes resets if you collect a block while spinning.

kalugny 2014-12-14 13:51

Very nice variation on the match-3 genre. Also, the tutorial was spot-on!

kualitygames 2014-12-14 14:25

Very cool game, could probably use a difficulty increase over time, or more cubes to rotate with more colors?

soulgame 2014-12-14 14:28

Cool game, with nice mood (I love the audio :)). Maybe you could add a 5th color to make a little harder. But I've seen the concept on many other places so I can't put a good score on innovation :/

Nifty game, quite fun! I really like the minimalist aesthetics with the backgrounds and box-particles, really complements the elegant mechanic. Great work!

blzkz 2014-12-27 10:39

I like it! Very fun :)

01rafael 2014-12-27 11:04

So great minimalistic concept! Fantastic game!

anael 2014-12-27 11:25

eusekerci 2014-12-27 12:03

really good idea. But its a lit easy. And I dont get how the game end?

pht59x 2014-12-27 12:34

Superb gameplay idea and lovely sound atmosphere. Great time waster. How do you win?

toadfrogs 2014-12-28 06:50

Nice casual game with a relaxing audio.

kiiro94 2014-12-29 13:34

@eusekerci
@pht59x

There's not an ending, it'a score attack game :D
