Agar.io spotted, but nice replay then ;)

It is NOT Agar.io! Okay it is...

Nice, clean art. Had some really interesting moments with another player connected to the same server. It was sometimes frustrating to control, b/c it wasn't always obvious which forces were pulling on you at a particular time.
I keep thinking it would be interesting to do a multiplayer game for a game jam. Maybe I'll also give it a shot some time.

Cool concept. It controls a bit difficult through.

im was really confused on how to control things :-(
only after a moment i understood that you actually eating those little white things (i tought they are stars in the background ^^)

Hilarious good fun on an old concept. Multiplayer just makes it better!

Agario much :P.
For some reason I really like the way the legs transition around you body tho :)

Very nice art and atmosphere, it probably could use some AI for when no one else is playing. But congrats on an online game in 48 hours!

Impressive concept, but I found the controls a bit difficult.

boltkey 2015-12-14 13:12

The artwork is very nice, I like your creative use of just circles to make whole character. But. It is basically a copy of agario with a twist. Not a lot of innovation here.

It is very bold move to make an online game though, but it seems you managed the network stuff quite well. It actually works, which I can imagine how difficult was.

Hi. nice game, to bad that I could not find another server for a multiplayer session. Bit the game lookin nice, it fits the theme... Controls are very hard to handle, I crushed into planets very often :D

lolgamer65 2015-12-15 03:49

The game was ok, but it felt like you were copying agar.io a bit too much.

logon13 2015-12-15 09:55

I personally know how hard multiplayer is, im not very good at it. It is so amazing everything you have got done in the time. You should be very proud of yourself

hmm Control feels a bit too few, which resulted in a few times seeing in "slowmotion" that I'm gonna die, because I knew I couldn't change it's trajectory hard enough to survive the planet.
Sadly I was alone on the server, so can't tell how it plays with others.
I like the babyface on that amoeba I played :D wished it would have grown more teeth though XD
Some Sounds would have been nice :o

Just read your post on LD main page, and yes : it's an agar.io type of game ! But I agree with you, nobody complained about Sonic being a copy of Mario, Heroes of the Storm being another LoL, and so on. I love how clean the game looks, and to me, it is a very nice entry in the LD ! GG !

sidewalksleeper 2015-12-15 10:10

It would've been better if the stage looped. It's pretty frustrating to keep smashing into invisible walls. Other than that, I enjoyed my time.

lordkawaii 2015-12-15 10:12

Good adaption of an existing game, fun graphics :)

I enjoyed playing this game, it was difficult to control to begin with, but after a while I managed to understand how the sort of "drifting" worked, and I really liked it.

thecatspajamas 2015-12-15 12:41

Controls were difficult. I liked the graphics, but I wasn't sure whether the other circles with eyes were other players, or just an NPC.

If someone hasn't played Agar.io I feel like they'd be lost and not know what to do. Instructions or an intro area might be useful.

Thank you for sharing your game!

Even thou this looks to be based in Agar.io, I recognize all the effort put into this. I wish there were a "technical" category, that would be 5 stars for you.

_hopfrog 2015-12-16 05:06

Artstyle is cool! Not completely sold on the Agar stuff though..

jakob37 2015-12-19 20:20

It looks very nice! I am only able to move very slowly though, so didn't manage to experience it properly.
