no other players available for matchmaking unfortunately.

Everything about the game looked good, but it just wasn't very fun. The music is amazing the atmosphere was amazing, but It wasn't a fun game.

I got error connecting to the server. Maybe it's the universities port limitation.. Will vote at home.

Very ambitious making MP with matchmaking for LD, lovely graphics, atmosphere, and the keyboard jam is groovy too.

I had one game but then got disconnected and couldn't reconnect until I reloaded. Sadly, no more matches were found :( It was a bit difficult to figure out exactly what was going on and what effect my controls were having.

I had some problems with searching for other players, it kept searching forever, never finding anyone... But the music was nice, and the menus looked polished. Maybe I'll try it later with better luck with finding people to play against.

Left it up for some time but didn't get any matches. I'll try later so that I can rate the game.

Couldn't find anyone to play, so no vote from me.
The lobby music was nice and the UI was pretty, tho.

I got to try it locally. Very atmospheric.
Well done!

Coudln't find a match unfortunately :(

Interesting game, found the fact that we weren't the same characters confusing. I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/G4-JCtlxKuU

I get a login unsuccessful message :( Shame because I really wanna play!

keyboardmonkey 2015-12-17 05:04

On start I can see the "connected" word displayed, but it displays "Login unsuccessful" when I attempt login the first time, and subsequent times too.

The game description sounds intriguing though!

sbot1101 2015-12-20 05:42

Just continues "Searching...". Good menu music though haha

dinnerinthedark 2015-12-21 20:52

Can't play :(

mike-cullingham 2015-12-23 04:35

Unfortunately there were no other players available.

So, getting stuck waiting in matchmaking is a thing...

simon-parzer 2015-12-23 09:45

Had the same problem with matchmaking. I'll try it again later

Great mood, good music and visuals, multiplayer works fine, only with small hickups. The objective is not very clear, the game ended very suddenly and without any user feedback.
Extra cred for making an online multiplayer, though! And a built-in chat is always a nice touch. :)

zulman 2015-12-23 18:57

Unable to find a match :( But love the music)

nic
nice gamee game

I too was stuck with the searching for ranked games, but then I just decided to start another instance of game and play against "myself".
I wasnt very sure what I was supposed to do though. I kept growing the other ball, which did get very big indeed, but the other "me" was just zooming very fast to the right since he was small all the time. Is there some way to win/lose in the game?

yinyin 2016-01-05 00:01

I couldn't see the blue line I got placed on at all.
And I have no clue why you did not prioritize a single player mode for this. It would be perfectly playable alone. Even some basic AI could easily be thrown in if you really need another ball eating away blobs.
