Fantastic. I got fired so much and came back ready for more.

Took me a while to figure out what it was they needed, but then I saw the coloured panels on the tubes!

After that I did great! Or maybe, until I had to start multitasking, damn

Amazing audio, visuals and atmosphere! The game was fun, until it got confusing, then I got fired a few times and blamed my lack of co-ordination :)

It becomes quickly complicated at the third level, but thats what make this game really good :D

This game was SICK. I gave it 5/5, I got all the way to level 6 B) I would LOVE for this to be a full game. With the wages being usable for like upgrades of some sort. Or maybe adding a kinda of sci fi story element where you're a new worker in this facility and the story starts giving all these thought provoking questions like he said in the beginning of level 6; Do you ever think why we grow these people? #justathought :D

I took me quite some time to understand the color I had to use for each specimen (I first it thought it was the colour of the tube...). But once I got it, it was pretty fun! It seems that some color sequences are impossible (yellow x 3 ?). Apart from that, great game! Good polish, good graphics, good gamefeel, good audio! Amazing!

Pretty polished game and you guys achieved a lot with the time given. I was surprised by how well balanced it seems and how it nicely it progresses and gets harder with each level. Getting this right is something that not a lot of people put thought into, especially with such a short time frame to make the game. Congrats!

Gorgeous graphics. Loved the little in-between texts and the details on the desk.

Great game! At first I didn't understand what I had to do, but I got it quickly, and then the game becomes so stressful! I lost on day 6, and it totally was my fault for not being able to press the correct buttons when needed. I think there are some combinations that you can't do, but you don't have to correctly feed ALL the clones, so it's not that bad.

Good job, keep it up!

Oh god the stress o.O Very slick game, well done :)

very fun. only complaint is no way to exit game... had to close with task manager

fafastudio 2015-12-21 20:26

This game is actually pretty cool.
However, it was so much difficult at the end and in my opinion, it lacked of more musics

aflatminerstudios 2015-12-21 20:51

Very good. It needs to be a bit more obvious in the beginning what colors you need to feed them (easy to think it's the color of the tube or the color of the person early on).

stevesalmond 2015-12-21 23:11

Thanks for all the feedback guys! Sounds like we needed to make it a bit clearer how the color matching works, and Escape to quit the game would have been a good thing, duh :) All good stuff, cheers.

Excelent entry, I didn't realize I had to see the cloning nutrients on the tubes at first and an exit button would be good. The UI, graphics and controls were all clean and the Login was a nice touch.

Polished but somewhat simple. Had a nice time playing. Well done!

Awesome entry as usual. Loved the background music track. Game really amped up around the 4th level? At first I didn't realize you could spam a key and drop multiple colors in at one time. Made it a lot easier. Very well done game. Fun and challenging and good theme usage.

I tried to like it, but it gets just so fast later on, you can't even use the first dispenser anymore, because until you see the first color on the pod, it's too late because the delay on the dispenser is too high. And because of the high delay you also have to press before the pod gets under the dispenser, but the speed changes every level so it messes with the timing... maybe I'm just bad at it.
Still, the graphics and mood are excellent, it just wasn't very fun for me. (Also I second the need of an exit button.)
