very polish game, love the artistic style, and also very hard, i rage quit at level 8
the control feels very smooth and responsive, the knob twisting and monitor shaking to fix the white tint is a very nice touch for the atmosfer overall
Interesting game! That's a nice way to go for the theme of this LD. The controls are nice which is pleasing for this kind of game.
Unfortunately at some moment, the game was crashing between some levels, don't know why :x
Old school style, nice
Love the concept, oh oscilloscope... awesome
You totally nailed it! I think that's perfect as an ancient tech example :)
The colored trails were beautiful to watch (but the dots were hard to escape at times)
The shake mechanic was fun for a while, but it became tedious after a few levels. Find a safe spot, mash space, continue (or lose in the process). The idea behind it is cool though, and the 8-bit noise is a good match :)
Cool game. It was fun and challenging to play, with a nice difficulty curve. The graphics are pleasant to look at.
This game is very good! The graphics are beautiful, and it's fun. However, the game crashes whenever I complete the second level, so I can't play past that. The parts that I managed to play are good, though.
Here is a crash log, if you're interested: https://aww.moe/2fax4j.zip
Thanks for the feedback! Sorry to hear about those crashes. I'm going to run the game in other PCs to try to reproduce the error.
Another impossible type game :P
I made it to level 11.
Really really interesting and fun game. Loved the puzzles and the concept.
The white thing on the monitor is annoying, but makes the game more interesting having to "fix" it with the shaking. Makes it more "organic", more "alive". Like the stitches on the side of the game screen, like the To Buy list. The love is in the little details.
Good work!!!
Nice. I like the graphics. The game itself is well done.
The control is smooth and pleasant.
Nicely done - I rage quit at level 11 but pleased I got that far!
Super hard but a good challenge. The only thing I didn't like was the screen pulsing white, felt annoying more than making it harder/interesting?
the control is good, but unfortunately, the game crashes after the "menu" first stage, so i cant really play your game for that long :/
Perfect.
wtf, level 10 is impossible xDD I want to turn off the machine XD
I love the idea of the game, the graphics are adequate ( the notes on the side along with the dials were a nice addition ) but I wish there was more of an attempt to mimic an actual oscilloscope. I like having to fix it with shaking the oscilloscope to fix but again i don't think the right 'effect' was used to show that it was damaged. Other than these (very minor) annoyances, I enjoyed the game overall. I found the best strategy is to just storm to the end endlessly until you get lucky. Only exception for this is level 10, 11, and 20, the latter of which I could not beat. The collision was a bit off as well, I think you made it that way so you could build walls, but perhaps having a different enitity for walls would have been a better solution. good game :)
Love the game concept, made very well. Game is very challenging so I was unable to finish it but when I have more time to play, I will try to beat the game. Nice work!
dobra gra, prawdziwe wyzwanie :D
I meant = good game , a real challenge : D
Very tricky but very well polished! I think you could reduce the players acceleration and deceleration values so it feels more precise. Otherwise excellent entry sir ^^
Wow. I think the only way to improve on this would to find a music score that fits. However I don't know how music could fit that would be a challenge in itself. Great Job!
Awesome game! The graphics are perfect and the later levels are frustratingly hard! Which is a good thing :)
This is very enjoyable! Also the fact that you need to repair the machine, though it seems pointless, makes the game a bit immersive which I think is a good thing. And I agree with Pixelpotions, the game gets frustrating, but that's good because this is the type of game where when you die, it is completely your fault, not the game's. The way I see it, there are two ways to win: Plan your moves out and find safe spots, or blindly charge through and hope you make it. Both work :P
Amazing, for me probably the most interesting game yet :D I have no idea how you come up with this but it's great. It's working pretty well, it looks nice, it's a pity there is no sound but that's accaptable. Also I love those knobs on sides and all the notes (you gotta buy dem pizzas).
Great job! :)
Good game, rage quit :p
I was excited to get into this game as soon as I saw the style. Unfortunately it crashes whenever I end the level (winning or losing).
Hello, your game crash for me on the first level when I hit the green dot...
Cool game! I really liked it a lot overall, my only complaint was that it crashed for me several times. I'm not sure why. I loved the look of the game and the nice little touches all around the game. I appreciated the humor of the "ancient tech" as well as "fixing" the oscilloscope. Aside from the crashing my only suggestion would be to alter it so red dots never went through other dots (particularly the goal dot) it just looked a bit off. I think having things not quite overlap fits the aesthetic better. Great game otherwise though.
Score: (because I like scores)
Overall 5/5
Innovation 3/5
Fun 5/5
Theme 5/5
Graphics 5/5
Audio 4/5
Humor 5/5
Mood 4/5
EDIT: I'd actually probably dock you a couple points in both overall and fun because it crashes a lot. I kept trying to play it until the end because it was fun but it literally crashed 12 times before I gave up on that. But like I said: otherwise it's a very good game.
