Pretty cool models and graphics styles. Is there an alternate ending? Nice clean font too.

Nice arcade like game play. I like the particles and how simple it was to pick it up. finished with 8 seconds to spare. didn't find an alternate ending.

Nice little game you have there! :D

panda 2015-08-24 03:11

My hat's off to you! The graphics are gorgeous, the sound effects fit right in, the gameplay is terrific, and the alternate ending... wow. Well you made me play long enough to find it, goes to show how much I enjoyed this game. Yours is my favorite game so far!

ferdbold 2015-08-24 03:12

Yeah, there is an alternate ending ;) Let's just say you have to try NOT to be a monster!

halleflux 2015-08-24 03:14

..Nearly impossible =\
Apart from that, very fun. I like the quick gameplay, though I feel that a few minor things here and there could be changed to make it better. (Just tinker around with things and get a few playtesters.)
Graphics are good, audio... eh, I like the mood of it, it feels a bit like a death star run or something like that. Music could really seal that in.

One word of advice: You are very good at your game. Others will find what you find easy, VERY difficult.

Oh, and I found the secret ending that may or may not be there. ;)

Very well done!

@panda Thanks a lot, I appreciate it!

halleflux 2015-08-24 03:16

Oh, and I should bring up that is seems to be based on getting lucky to an unfortunate degree. I can't think of anything off the top of my head that would help that, but if I think of something, I'll let you know.

ferdbold 2015-08-24 03:16

@Halleflux Heh, I tinkered a lot with the number of targets required, it bounced back and forth a lot during testing :P

I really suck at audio and couldn't find time enough to put in nice sounds and music, so I had to do with generated stuff. I totally agree that some music would have helped it a lot more!

An interesting, challenging, and visually appealing game. A bit weak on the theme, but a lot of bits I'm jealous of!

ferdbold 2015-08-24 03:26

@quill18 Glad you liked it! Watched your stream during the jam, quite humbled by the comment :)

Awesome. Fun to play again and again right after you die. Simple controls. But pretty difficult

digiman572 2015-08-24 05:23

Put up an exe version of this game and I'll actually keep it on my PC. What do you say? :D BTW, great music and I love the game idea. It does get a little laggy at times though. But overall, really good game. :)

digiman572 2015-08-24 05:27

Oops my bad, this game doesn't have any music. Turns out I had another Ludum Dare game entry open while I playing this one. LOL sorry. :( Still very nice game. :D

ViliX 2015-08-24 05:46

I'm sorry my game didn't work for you :/ Launching it again would probably solve the issue (or you can just click through the walkthrough video I've made).
Is there a chance you could export your game to WebGL or Linux? It looks super cool and Linux unfortunately doesn't support the Unity Web Player.

Pretty nice looking graphics style. Quite fun to play, audio was a bit loud thought. Great job!

latency 2015-08-24 12:25

That was a super interesting idea, theme was a bit weak, but it was a lot of fun.

togg 2015-08-24 12:46

Great entry, I really like the concept and graphics play out really well.

hyoga-3d 2015-08-24 14:27

Did not found a lot of the theme, but gameplay is nice and the art is great, good job.

andybrown 2015-08-24 19:56

Challenging game! Loved the aesthetics, and the movement felt very smooth. Alternate ending was a nice touch =)

derosa 2015-08-25 01:28

Great graphical style, but I felt the control was a bit too laggy. Maybe less inertia? Also, I feel a variable height jump would improve the game too. But hey, it's a pretty solid and amazing game, so congrats!

sprawl 2015-08-25 04:01

Great job. Looks sooo gooood.

tonny_elhond 2015-09-04 21:01

Nice art game! and a different concept too. But maybe the game is a little confusing , because there is a lot of different visual information, and the gameplay looks kind complicated. But overall, it has a lot of potencial! great job!
