Nice Music Synchronisation!

2015-12-12 12:32

I have a mac mouse, I cant start the game :\

johntherobot 2015-12-12 14:47

Cool! I'll have to bust out my mouse instead of the touchpad; only got like 30.

I got 76. Nice balance between simplicity and gameplay. Simple but a decent amount of polish. Good job!

okadoka 2015-12-12 19:22

Dang, only got 27. Great job!

triplew 2015-12-12 21:37

Pretty cool!

pjimmy 2015-12-12 22:01

jakeman722 2015-12-13 02:48

This is pretty fun :) Good Job!

Everyone, I changed it so that you can play with Mac Mouses or touchpads now :D

scottrick 2015-12-14 18:19

nice music!

ethanwebster 2015-12-14 18:21

I got 66. Mostly because I didn't adhere to your advice and went haywire with that right mouse haha. Nice music too. Well done :D

yamzho 2015-12-14 18:34

Go Nuts !!!!!! Ooops, I ran out of ammo ! ;)

ranseur 2015-12-14 18:38

I think that the machinegun would be much more satisfying if it had some spray, still, nice work on that music synchronisation!

tanjent 2015-12-14 21:53

96! Catchy tune and simple mechanics. You should head over to onehourgamejam.com and participate I think you would fit right in!

I liked the idea of the syncronization with the game play.

I think the machine gun for the amount of bullets you consume it should have more power to destroy the blocks, because either way the sniper could destroy better without consuming so much bullets.

Anyway, I think this kind of game is nice to practice to play well an fps for example, but in the beginning you get frustrated when you let the block pass away. :p

Very well done!
The concept of choosing between sniper-shots and machine gun bullet-rain is really interesting, and despite the simple graphics it works out really well!
It would be nice of the hitboxes were a tad bigger than the boxes itself.
Love the music, well done overall!

codexus 2015-12-15 20:23

Nice music!

dege 2015-12-15 20:49

Nice music!

phobos001 2015-12-15 22:25

Fun little game! I mainly ended up using the sniper most of the time though, my aim has gotten better over the years :P

pjimmy 2015-12-16 23:52

You should add some eyecandy, like explosions (maybe some gore ;P). Try to find a cooler thumbnail to ramp up the audience. Like I said before, it's a cool shooter, simple but fun. It only needs some visual upgrades. well done :)

sk16games 2015-12-17 18:02

Yay 87! seems like I'm above average at this game :) Nice game and chill music!

knason 2015-12-17 19:38

Nice music! :) It was fun, I had a hard time hitting the targets in the begining but when I started shoot like a crazy person it went better. Good job!

christina-nordlander 2015-12-17 21:59

Nice controls and a nice challenge. I like the graphics, minimalist as they are. The music is outstanding, simply a joy to listen to.

Would have been fun if there were a little more to the game (for example, some way to die other than running out of bullets).

Very impressive for such a short time period.

blake_lead 2015-12-20 19:08

Enjoyable little game. And nice music.

khallane 2015-12-27 14:33

Nice music, nice idea, nice little game :)

pixelaborate 2015-12-27 15:18

All in all a fun little time waster, but I think the sniper needs a drawback to make it the same level as the machine gun. Maybe some reload time?

indiestry 2015-12-27 15:34

Cool little thigy, liked how much of a difference the kinds of weapons made

xanjos 2015-12-27 15:34

Pretty good use of the theme and I really like how the music synchronisation affects the gameplay (Highest score I got was 56).

pixzleone 2015-12-27 15:42

That was simple and cool! Really liked the simple artstyle too! Good job!

justinooncx 2015-12-27 15:50

Rather difficult, since some of the boxes flew in an arc that made it impossible to hit. The hitbox is a tad wonky, and the machine gun is rather uneconomical. Other than that, an interesting game.

vortex 2015-12-28 16:48

Great audio, and nice gameplay, but the thing I find odd about your game is the loosing condition...
I think it would have been better if you lost when too many blobs left the screen instead of running out of ammo. Because of that you can use the sniper 1000 times, which makes the machine gun pointless.

g12345 2016-01-03 23:35

Fun little game. Because you have 1000 bullets I've decided to use the machine gun after a while. You get less score but at least the game ends soon enough. :)

No idea how you did the music synchron but that was innovative to me.
