OOps, Broke the mixer.. but times up..

I had a hard time understanding the mechanics at first. Really interesting!

I have no idea of how to do any of this, but the concept is great.

Don't really understand it, but could be the start of something good.

I too am struggling to understand the mechanics. I did find that you can continually click the same spot to make it huge!

scriptorum 2014-12-08 05:25

Some of those areas can get really big and obscure other parts of the board.

banestar007 2014-12-08 07:05

Yeah, you're adding more ink to the board, so the 'bubble' is to get bigger and bigger and start covering other players, mixing their colours together..

Can't quite get the mechanic, but it was cool messing around.

Looks cool if i could understand how to play

Interesting how the actual size of the space affects color spread instead of adjacency, but I wonder if that actually changes the playstyle at all? The net effect seems the same.

I did not understand the rules, but I love hexagonal board games!

I didn't really understand the rules fully, but it seemed like it could make an interesting game. Trying improving the speed from clicking a hex to actually seeing a change though, there is quite a bit of lag.

I feel as though this could have been an interesting game if the "mixer" was fixed and if there was an objective to the game.

We played your game in our first LD game review!

A bit hard to understand for me but congratulations making a multiplayer game!

Hard to understand the mechanics at play in this.

snickersnacks 2014-12-11 19:29

I don't really understand the win or lose conditions, but this feels like the start of a really cool territory based game like Go. Nice entry! :)

edve98 2014-12-12 14:54

I don't really get it how I should play this. And it looked quite laggy for me.

hundredhundred 2014-12-12 14:58

this game was a bit confusing, wasn't too sure what to do. My friends and I had a fun time!

x70x 2014-12-12 14:58

I honestly had no idea what I was doing to influence the game outside of just making colors larger.

mahu 2014-12-12 15:01

A tutorial would be nice.

stephan_h 2014-12-12 15:03

Did not really get it. I like hex based turn based game, so I hope you improve on it.
