I can run this entry but I am not sure it is intended or the game does not run properly on my computer. When I change the perspective, everything leave a strong afterimage on the screen, and that makes me almost impossible to see the cubes flying towards me. The audio is a bit too loud and when many cubes come towards you, it sounds a bit uncomfortable.

This game is intended to be an odd Sprite-mare :)

Interesting graphics! I could only stand a few minutes of it, but I liked how you turned a common glitch into your aesthetic. I almost wish the game was more "normal" at first and then got trippy once I was sucked in. Nice job!

Thanks Pat, I agree. My lack of coding skills forced me into a quick game loop. It's rather intense alright. I'll tweak a version for itch.io

Interesting concept. I think that if you shrunk the region of the sky in which the screen clear effect happens, it would have a better impact. As is, the majority of the time it's almost impossible to play with how much of the screen is distorted.
That being said, it was definitely an effective spritemare :)

I really like the aesthetic, but I was sort of confused on what to do. It also bugged out on me a few times, but it seems like you could be on to something pretty awesome with your frame buffer technique!

Whoa very confusing. there needs to be a way to kill the cubes because i cant explore coz I'm constantly stuck in them. very interesting.

Interesting concept, but very confusing. I like this aesthetic mood ++

I loved the overall mood of this, even though as a game it does not "play" very well, since the cubes just make it very difficult to navigate around the game world. And altough it is a bit too psychedelic to play for an extended period of time, I loved where you went with this!
