This game is the shit. It challenged my views on what a truly good game is supposed to be. This game takes your hand and plunges you straight into the thick of it's in depth game play and mechanics you never thought one could achieve with only z x and c. It's is one of life's miracles that knows no bounds. Truly an underrated game that has so much to offer to it's players. Nothing sexual but you just might pop one playing this exemplary game.
Nice game. Took time to get used to the controls but once I mastered it, the game was still hard lol. Detection of the shapes is not perfect like I switched to triangle but it still told me it was wrong.
Fun but a little repetitive.
The tutorial was succinct and swift, very swell.
The graphics are functional but I found the colors blended a bit sometimes, a color chart can do wonders here!
The game-play is fun, I went for a number of tries! I Noticed the input tends to stick a little, I don't know if it's the game or just my PC but I thought I'd mention just in case.
Digging the vibe, love green, under rated colour. Fun game. Cheers!
The web version of your game doesn't work well. It doesn't fit the window and when you go full screen the window closes if you try to click on the game. So I downloaded the game. (Would recommend to call the map something else then standalone to avoid confusion)
I like the idea but it is kinda weird that the object on the pillars change after you jump. Especially since these objects don't have a border it's sometimes hard to distinguish between the shapes. (Might have been better this way with a different background) Also would have been nice to have a visual reminder of which buttons correspond to a certain shape. (Kept forgetting :p) Menu music fit okay, gameplay music meh. The shape shifting itself felt unresponsive at times.
Thanks for the input I'll definitely consider and input your guys advice. I've noticed the buttons tend to stick a little bit so I'll work on that. Ran out of time and don't know if I should continue work on it. Thanks for the input!
Simple and nice concept but I agree with paradxil, a bit repetitive.
Tutorial is straight to the point and explicit enough, and I liked the general mood. Nice job!
Somehow I love those graphics.
The soundtrack is soo great!
Not much innovation on the theme.
Thumbs up for the humor.
Maybe you should change the colors a bit so they don't mix too much. Sometimes it's hard to tell foreground from background.
Not a bad little thing, I think I'd have had you control the jumps, and maybe not have the shape keep changing, giving me some time to plan ahead, but it wasn't a bad little game :)
Clever concept, but it felt like sometimes my button inputs wouldn't register. There should also be better indication that I should be paying attention to the sign in the background and not the shapes on the hurdles (which are misleading, as they can change at the last second!)
I've noticed the button inputs sticky. I fixed that issue in
ver 0.1.0.
Good use of theme, it should be noted that the input stuck a bit in the web version for me.
Nice, mellow lil' game here. For some reason the music made me think of sonic spinball...I dig the audio.
Nice game, I appreciated having a tutorial!
Heyho, this game is really challenging!
It is just hard that the elements even switch while you are jumping, so you sometimes catch the wrong shape even you prepared correct!
Very fun with fitting music.
Thanks for the support guys! I already fixed the button sticks and realized my update was really glitchy! so stay tune for better versions
boing! boing! controls seemed a little unresponsive?
Simple, cute game. Obviously very repetitive, but cool for what it is. Nice job!
@namrog84 yeah i messed up in that version they'll be an update this weekend hopefully
Great concept! There were a few problems I had, for instance, whenever you jumped, the shapes switched on the pillars, which was overall confusing. I feel like this could be really fun though if you fixed some things and expanded!
Good job for a solo project! I like green and the game is fun. The only issue was the fact I paying attention to the shapes on the pillar and not the background, so it was confusing to keep getting wrong shapes. Also, is Flumber possibly a homage to Flubber, what with changing shapes and being green and all?
Also, I'm not sure if a lot of people still have the Unity Webplayer installed. I feel like a WebGL build, despite its significantly rough edges, is probably the more universal route to take, if you want more people being able to play the game! Just my two cents.
Thanks I'll definitly put a WebGL build up that's a great idea
@abcdef65g
Very challenging runner game! I love it! Once I had the controls memorized I was able to get really far! Nice job
Good challange. :D Please, put a skip option in tutorial. ^^
@GGAliiance thanks for the tip!
Nice game.
I would try too add a "skip button" for the tutorial.
Also, I would prefeer to increase the challenge of the game with more speed instead of changing the shapes in the last moment.
I needed many tries to make a decent score, but when you undertand the controls it is funny.
@DevelopTech thanks! Stay tune for update ver 1.0.0 for increased difficulty
I was surprised that it jumps automatically, but it's actually a good choice, changing shapes already makes your brain busy enough ahah.
Yet the jumping is good, it somehow breaks the monotony of it.
Pretty simple but really cute and fun!
A bit easy though, there is almost no difficulty curve :/
@Ellian thanks for the input. In creating the game I found jumping would have been a challenge on top of changing shape. Eventually I will make hard mode where you have to jump on your own! so stay tune for that.
@Stending I've noticed that some have difficult even with the current set up. In my new update it will make the game harder the longer you play! Stay tune!
