So fun, too hard for me though

dooskington 2015-12-14 04:09

Really fun actually. Great job!

xwarzonex 2015-12-14 04:12

Its very fun and polished! Great entry.

zatch 2015-12-14 04:14

Really enjoying this one! Well balanced, intuitive, and very attractive!

modoc73 2015-12-14 04:18

Thanks guys :)

borodar 2015-12-14 05:01

Nice game!

move127 2015-12-14 05:01

Fantastic game. It is addicting, the visuals are great, and it is challenging. Can't ask for much more.

mactinite 2015-12-14 05:01

Looks great, really polished. Really no problems at all!

timeshapers 2015-12-14 05:53

Great mobile game, would not play on PC. Asked me to post to my circles, betting it was oversight.

modoc73 2015-12-14 05:56

Thanks @timeshapers I will check this out asap.

daleth90 2015-12-14 14:27

Great gameplay and great graphic!
By the way, can not run the windows version on my Win7 x64

mintarcade 2015-12-14 14:28

Very well done, great game

akhera 2015-12-14 15:13

Simple relaxing fun. I love it!

sydan 2015-12-14 15:15

I found the difficulty on this just right. It was full of good design choices and plays really well. Congrats!

jaj 2015-12-14 15:32

Great sound design and very visually appealing too. It's a pretty basic game but polished really well and very fun.

stormcaller 2015-12-14 15:44

Very fun. Very crisp. Next LD I will be striving for this level of quality.

yuigoto 2015-12-15 02:42

Great work! The choice of colors and minimalistic look gives a nice feeling and, together with the soundtack, it creates a really nice, relaxing mood. Loved the layering of sounds with the progress too!

The controls are really well written and it feels really good to play. The growing view adds a really nice touch to the game too! So great use of the theme! :)

ruerob 2015-12-15 02:46

Great work on this one! I like it a lot. Nice soft music and visuals.

xeke_death 2015-12-15 06:49

Great concept and execution... I liked the cleanness of the graphics, with the almost subtle sounds...

lkfumagalli 2015-12-15 06:55

Nice take on both the two button controls and growing themes. The graphics, while simple, look nice and polished, and the style is consistent. I like the introduction of more instruments as you progress, and the music's good too.

As for the gameplay, it's fun and engaging. I enjoyed the challenge of trying to minimize my movement so I could stay small and dodging at the last second.

If there's one thing that bothered me about this game it was the menu at the start. You mention nothing about using the mouse in this entry or in the game, so I was stumped for a while trying to figure out how to progress. It didn't take long for me to try clicking, but it would've been nice if that were more obvious or the main controls were used somehow.

Nonetheless, great concept, great game, great job!

dmecke 2015-12-15 07:06

Feels very polished, very well done!

modoc73 2015-12-15 07:42

Thanks for feedback everybody :)
I'm am considering creating a HD version for Android too.

kiyaku 2015-12-15 08:04

This is perfect! Awesome art, creative idea, nice music and sound effects and matches the theme perfectly. Very challenging too (highest i got was 167), but lots of fun and very addictive.

Wish you could restart the game by pressing A/D or something as well so i dont have to use the mouse at all, but other than that it's great!

ruka 2015-12-15 10:42

Very simple but fun. NICE!

littlethor 2015-12-15 12:58

112! Yay!
I LOVE it! It's exactly the kind of game I'd be happy to make. It's beautiful, the music is great, the SFX are super cool, and the gameplay is really neat and addictive. I mean: "Superhexagon addictive level"
Great work!

jupiter_hadley 2015-12-15 14:21

Simple, fun, well made game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/p3nh2TkdCXs

anquetil13621 2015-12-15 14:35

Really great game and nice idea!! Simple but deep!! :)

justinooncx 2015-12-15 16:10

A rather simple yet challenging game. Definitely suited for mobile.

miketsunami 2015-12-16 04:26

Fun game! Got a high score of 138! =)

sleepyxy 2015-12-16 07:44

Wow! 260 after 3 tries. I like the smooth and minimalistic style. The balance feels just right and the controls are super easy to adapt. Great game :)

logon13 2015-12-16 08:17

Extremely professional art style. The sounds are also really reactive.

rocketship 2015-12-16 09:12

Very fun and innovative, though the difficulty ramps up veeery quickly. Love the minimalistic look and found myself retrying multiple times, good job!

rein1 2015-12-16 09:50

Very fun ! Great game !

hexagore 2015-12-16 12:14

Hey this is perfect! Looks beautiful, controls are really responsive, difficulty is absolutely spot on. Exactly what I was looking for :)

alpha_rat 2015-12-16 13:08

Really polished little game! It feels quite finished, simple and full of details and tight feedbacks.

phi6 2015-12-16 13:30

Very meditative! You get the most points if you stay still 80% of the time and let the points come to you. I love it!

matiasbontempo 2015-12-16 14:46

Nice concept, hard and relaxing at the same time.

beardybard 2015-12-16 16:25

This's high quality entry :)
Also, minimalistic art is on point.

cynicalmonkey 2015-12-16 19:33

liked the simple style of the graphics

rnlf 2015-12-16 21:54

Many cool android games this is the besg i've seen so far.

Fluid gameplay and great polish!

The audio was a bit distorted sometimes, but I guess that was just my phone.

Simple and addictive, playable in a few momemts, just like mobile game should be.

I'll keep it on my phone after the compo.

Good job!

The mandatory G+ connection was a bit annoying though...

danidre14 2015-12-17 00:05

Great work dude! Really simplistic and challenging, nice effects and graphics and gives good game-feels!

Was going good until a red 'thing' appeared outta nowhere, right into me xD

mountainranger 2015-12-17 06:49

Really cool game. Really fun. I will download it on my phone

pjimmy 2015-12-17 12:24

nice, very clean and minimal, the game mechanics are cleverly made and solid, sound fits perfectly, very professionally made, well done :)

felixreeve 2015-12-17 12:26

Great style, works really well and reminds me a bit of super hexagon

inbetweengames 2015-12-18 00:07

Very simple yet addictive entry. Love this minimalistic graphics and nice audio. A lot of good feedback (i.e. appearing of new circles or getting multipliers).
Hi-Score: 80. :)
Thanks!

imagossoftworks 2015-12-18 05:05

Fun game. Kept me coming to get a high score. Ended up at 299 points. This game looks like it would be right at home on a mobile platform!

big-cow 2015-12-18 15:14

Really expertly done. Simple game but addictive and satisfying. True to the two button theme. Great job.

kayz 2015-12-18 17:55

A very fun and fast paced game. Got my heart pumping when I finally went beyond a score of 200. Ended up at 285. Quite polished.

lkfumagalli 2015-12-19 06:49

I included your game in my Let's Play Ludum Dare series as thanks for commenting on my game!

You can check out the details here: http://ludumdare.com/compo/2015/12/19/lets-play-ludum-dare-34-episode-01-is-now-uploaded/

evergreen-games-ludum-dare 2015-12-19 07:58

Wow so addicting!!! Really fun and polished. Nice clean graphics. Definitely take this to mobile. Only issue is staying in place will get you a ton of points. Great game though. My high score is 421.

jamesmowery 2015-12-19 07:58

High score: 681! I love it. Super addicting, super fun to get into, and definitely has you on the edge of your seat the whole time!

arcturusdeluxe 2015-12-19 18:05

Fun stuff, simple but deceptively challenging. Controls feel nice, with just the right amount of physics in the movement. Beautiful presentation as well!

crawler-studios 2015-12-21 06:17

This game is amazing! So much fun, very addictive and great concept.

wevel 2015-12-21 11:26

Very nice and polished, love the controls

schizoid2k 2015-12-21 14:17

Very nice! Game play is great, and the graphics fit the game perfectly. Enjoyed playing!

bitdecaygames 2015-12-21 16:28

Man, this is one of those games that just digs at you to do better the next time. Simple enough that its frustrating when you cant to better. Well done.

trasevol_dog 2015-12-21 17:35

Very nice concept and amazingly clean execution! The game plays very nicely and feels very rewarding. I love all the graphical effects that translate what's happening in the game. Absolutely amazing entry, well done!!

galvesmash 2015-12-23 13:39

Fun, innovative, addicting and awesome game. Just perfect!
Release an iOS version too!

publicidadeba 2015-12-23 15:21

I wrote this before in many two buttons entries, but I have to write it again here...PEOPLE WILL LOVE THIS if you place it on the mobiles stores. Awesome work fellow dev.

jdoughty 2015-12-23 16:36

Felt like the audio is what glued me strangely enough. Very solid entry! Had to weigh risk/reward alot, and I feel like any game that makes me think in that light is a cut above the rest

flannelvindicate 2015-12-23 17:14

You are featured in today's Ludum Dare to Believe! Check it out! - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRXegYh1MPw

lereveur 2015-12-23 21:42

Simple and challenging avoiding/collect game. Hard, fun, well designed, good job !

mahalis 2015-12-25 03:45

Wow - this is incredibly well-polished. Fun concept, simple-but-challenging gameplay, slick animation, great sound. Amazing work.

krafty 2015-12-25 21:41

This was fun and pretty difficult! I only managed to get 93 >__< I like the visuals, and the sounds are pretty cool too. Great job! :)

tapehead 2015-12-26 07:58

cool idea!!!

diebackstudios 2015-12-27 05:46

Love it ya it looks similar to mine but nice concept u got going here i love the simplistic art and fun gameplay :) Kudos m8

kaiseangames 2015-12-27 17:19

681? I gave up on 10.
Too hard for me, but it's really nice.

solifuge 2015-12-28 20:47

Just hit 295, around the time I finally understood that the blue pickups clear the board: http://i.imgur.com/Dspzf7C.png

Great minimalist design, nice use of a growing number of instruments and more music as a reward for progress, and a pretty fun arcade-style game overall. The growing-by-moving mechanic felt a little like an afterthought, and didn't make much difference; it'd be interesting to see see movement controlling or influencing the size of the circular path instead, though it was fine as is too.

I very much enjoyed playing this. Thanks for putting it together!

kerdelos 2015-12-28 22:40

The audio is cool and the graphics are beautiful. The game feels polished and is nice to play. The only drawback is that the gameplay is not very original. But good job anyway !

crucknuk 2015-12-29 17:17

Nice entry I really like the concept, the game was very addictive! I made 292 ;) Great job ;)

jeasonfire 2015-12-30 18:33

The game is very simple and fun. I didn't like how slippery the controls seemed, but otherwise no complaints! The sounds fit the game very well.
