This controls really good, and cool mechanics, I sucked at it though :D

It was nice to get to now the controls at the beginning, but it was a little tedious do it a second time. Maybe only have it once! Either way great job!

Clean design. I liked playing the game. A bit hard to build things, though. I accidentally used up all my blocks several times.

For some reason the game didn't show up for me on the page from the link. I use chrome btw.

Nice game but this stupid red dot still killing me :<

discofish 2016-12-12 17:04

Really cool mechanics!

quaternius 2016-12-12 17:27

I really like the mechanic! really original, loved trapping the enemys.

sanojian 2016-12-12 18:14

Really innovative. Hard though.

It tok me a while to figure out how to play it. The mechanics are interesting and the presence of enemies makes the game much harder (the second level was a challenge for me). Could be nice if there was a way to restart the level other than pressing F5 :)

soundless_dev 2016-12-12 19:21

@fragileannihilator: Pressing space after you died wasn't working for you?

artsicle 2016-12-12 19:33

Eyy another person who uses sublime text(with javascript and html5!)

artsicle 2016-12-12 19:35

Great!

conrad123 2016-12-12 19:37

"Press the spacebar to lose again." :P

schizoid2k 2016-12-12 19:39

Interesting and challenging. Good job.

Really a fun and cool game ! The gameplay is intuitive and smooth, it's challenging but not impossible. The graphics are simple it's enough and the particles are good-looking. Well done ! :)

ccglp 2016-12-12 21:06

Good idea, but the control scheme is a bit odd for me, I don't get it ._:

avalkyrie 2016-12-13 00:11

Pretty cool, surprisingly hard once that red dot shows up.

cushycode 2016-12-13 05:21

Neat game mechanics and overall concept. I like this little game and hope you'll continue working on it.

fiote 2016-12-13 14:16

Challenging! Liked it! Good to know more people jamming with javascript (we did it too ^^)

thebrickanator 2016-12-13 19:43

This looks like a lot of fun once your used to the controls, (I would find it easier with the up or space key as jump) but I'll be sure to come play it again later and try master it because I love the concept and the splash animations are quite satisfying :)

decentsauce 2016-12-14 00:35

Really like the idea! Game is a bit on the hard side though. I think having building and breaking bricks on the same buttons and determine what happens by the pressed direction would make the controls easier. Currently it's a bit difficult to block an opponent that is chasing you. Still, very good entry!

jonathan50 2016-12-14 00:53

I love this game. Especially the enemies and method of building.

soundless_dev 2016-12-14 03:09

@Decentsauce: That's a really good Idea! I think I'll add that in the polished version

hawksandwich 2016-12-14 11:53

It's pretty neat, the controls are a bit hard to get behind, but it's not a huge problem. The game's responsive and simple fun. Good entry :)

cynicalmonkey 2016-12-14 11:54

really cool idea and fun use of the theme

fuad 2016-12-14 11:58

Interesting platformer. A little bit unresponsive controls and I think you need to give more interactions with bricks.

And it's pretty hard :)

jotson 2016-12-15 06:25

Really interesting game. I like the building mechanic. Reminds me of lode runner for some reason... except in reverse I guess?

voider 2016-12-17 04:49

oh man I love the idea and the mechanics .. it's a fun game, I would increase hard upon getting golds, it's just too hard at once, but I had a good time :)

rplnt 2016-12-18 17:28

It doesn't load for me, this is the error I get:

game.js:143 Uncaught DOMException: Failed to read the 'localStorage' property from 'Window': Access is denied for this document.

soundless_dev 2016-12-18 21:01

@rplnt: Ah, that's a problem with your browser I think, not allowing access to local storage for keeping a high score. You must have some strict security settings or something. Are you using chrome?

roborob 2016-12-20 10:29

The controls were pretty good, and the game was nice.

doublesquare 2016-12-24 13:36

Interesting, but hard

mirta000 2016-12-27 04:24

fairly alright, quite hard to play when the red dot starts chasing you though. Kept on dying to it >_<

dssiege11 2016-12-31 16:29

Cool game! The mechanics are really original :D Well done :)
