Very nice concept. Looks really nice and was fun to play. Good job!

The graphics are gorgeous! Little much to take in at first, kept getting confused on which are projectiles and why I'm getting tethered to everything, but great work regardless of my ignorance!

chronodk 2015-04-20 09:01

Great idea, and very pretty graphics!

leaghorn 2015-04-20 12:08

@Lynx I edited the description a little so maybe it's more clear what is going on and what to do ;)

papygaragos 2015-04-20 12:46

Super cool idea, and great packaging, but I feel like there is no real way to 'attack' the other player: It's just a surviving contest, and it's hard to avoid your own bullets because they sometime spawn just under your nose...

leaghorn 2015-04-20 12:58

@PapyPilgrim yeah. It's a game of defense rather than offense. The bullets dont hurt you right away. There is a time gap when you release them so you can escape. Ofcourse sometimes you will got hit but so does the enemy ;)

Awesome ! Graphics and the mood are both really good.

The game looks amazing! And the music fits well! The gameplay, however, seems to be straightforward and lacking strategy.
I enjoyed this game a lot, but mainly because of graphics.
I wish there was another way to tell how much health do you have, like orbs becoming smaller or dimmer.

Nice work on the art! The gameplay is a little dull, but I like the concept anyway.

Very nice game, visuals are really cool, great job.

mortus 2015-04-21 15:19

It looks great and it seems to be very fun but for some reason I just can't figure out how to play this effectively. I lose every single time. :D

Great work on the visuals!

leaghorn 2015-04-21 15:36

@mortus focus on catching blue particles. Bigger particles heals more so if there is a choice chose bigger. Dont worry about orange particles. I mean try to avoid bigger groups of them, but just focus on catching as many blue ones ;)

Really pretty entry, well done. :)

joshua_burr 2015-04-21 20:08

Very nice concept. Looks great too!

midnightcreators 2015-04-22 15:53

A bit confuse in the begging, but really cool game! The graphics and mood are gorgeous. More power ups would be awesome :) Good job!

drauthius 2015-04-22 20:19

Nice entry, but I couldn't break the forcefield though! My friend and I tested a few times, but we both ended on 0 (or 0.01) points.

leaghorn 2015-04-22 20:27

@Drauthius if there is no enough momentum to break out of the forcefield, move the oposite side to build the momentum and you will breake free ;)

Interesting concept and idea. Good job!

Great job dude! Really enjoyed it.

tselmek 2015-04-23 12:33

Neat concept, very hard to master. Gorgeous graphics and kickass music and sounds. Good job!

terraneola 2015-04-23 14:55

Hi! I like the concept too. As I said fantastic graphics style but a little boring gameplay. Still excellent work!

designernap 2015-04-23 20:15

Great graphics and solid audio. It says on the game that the audio is by @qrchack? if that isn't you then this should really be a Jam instead of a Compo entry. Nice concept though.

leaghorn 2015-04-24 16:24

@DesignerNap there is no sounds and audio track is by @qrchack, thats why no rating in Audio category ;)

seriouslycrunchy 2015-04-28 13:15

Wow this is a very nice use of the theme! Looks great too, nice job. Unsure how I would expand the idea though.

lamogui 2015-04-28 17:46

Amazing visual effects !

ididgame 2015-04-28 18:19

the visuals are nice and the concept is original, good job!
i would have like some way to release the bullets myself as to make it a little more tactical

kaiseangames 2015-04-28 18:25

Nice one. A bit too random. Not sure what's happening most of the time. And I had difficulties separating from the other orb. But all in all, it's a very nice game.

thaaks 2015-04-28 18:52

Wonderful visuals! The game is fun to play but it's not sooo obvious why you win or lose at the end. Catching the bullets isn't this easy and given the "floating style" of movement it's tricky to get the bullets you need.

Overall a well done game!

eskivor 2015-04-28 19:23

Really great FX !

elefantopia 2015-04-28 19:36

Beautiful but the best way to play is to do nothing ...

oparisy 2015-04-28 19:43

Once I read the nxtructions, this was definitely a very fun game to play! Some strange initial "dance" avoiding the other orb, always moving, and then a final "kill"... very original. Perhaps the screen is a little bit too shaky at times, and I would have liked to play fullscreen. The graphics and VFX are gorgeous! Nice music too, gives quite an atmosphere.

monos 2015-04-28 19:59

Very cool graphics and effects, liked the gameplay but find it a bit chaotic, probably it's my fault.

biliogadafr 2015-04-28 20:33

Interesting. So the winner is the one who collects orbs more efficiently.:) Effects looks great. Also music fits visuals very well.

grillaface 2015-04-29 21:08

Excellent presentation, wish I had someone to play against. Nice job.

sledknight 2015-05-11 22:22

Excellent entry! I played the CPU and barley won. lol Beautiful effects.
