Heheh, this is interesting! It definitely gets worse the more universes you have, so it fits the theme. :P My biggest complain would be that it runs at a very low framerate in the browser, and would maybe benefit from a download link.
@peculiarcarrot it's not bad framerate. It's part of game mechanics :). GL on contest.
This is great! I love the use of the plot point from the Rick and Morty episode and the art is great! It's very hard, for me at least! Good job!
lmao, this is great. Such a simple concept that works so well and fits with the theme perfectly, nice!
Great idea and the execution is on point. Unfortunatly, it gets a bit humdrum quickly
Hilarious! I love it. It definitely gets worse as you go if you mess up. Made me laugh a couple times too. Great creativity.
snx for all :)
Man, fun AND it fits the theme.
Though you need a high IQ to undestand the game. :P
@milo-the-cool-guy IQ must be greater than potato; :v: Good luck on LD man.
it's really hard to win!
had fun really enjoyed it
@knep ty man. Really important comment
I had a blast playing this. I had difficulty and never quite won. But it is a fun matching game.
As fan of Rick's cheers to your work : )
Great use of the theme, and really nice art. However it was hard to decipher what to do, and the inclusion of Rick and Morty of source material didn't really add anything. I saw the episode this is based on, but this didn't add much to what was done there.
Simple gameplay, but very well executed! Plenty of polish in the animations and good transitions. Plus it fits the theme perfectly!
haha! great game! good music choice too!
I couldn't beait it for almost five minutes, so I closed my eyes and clicked random and Voila! This was the luckiest strike in my life.
Nice concept!
@amir-bayareh ty fo comment.
I LIKE WHAT YOU GOT
This game increases IQ and is pretty fun to play too. High marks for theme, innovation, and graphics.
Love this show! Love this epi! I love this game! I like how simple, but hard this game is.
Cool concept. I beat it first try the first couple of times, but now I just can't haha. Great polish!
simple and fits the theme so well.Also rick and morty!
I had to play for two times to figure how the concept work. After I found out how to win the game, I thought it is fxxking difficult and crazy to play when you just have one wrong click!! Hahaha To me, overall of the game is nice and the concept is cool and innovative.
Simple yet very fun concept. Nice job!
Nice work, very cool graphics
I saw that exact episode the friday before LD started. Funny, good music and straight forward mechanic. Congrats!
Great and simple game. I didn't know you could have a fun game with only using left mouse click
interesting idea and fits the theme well. So, will be contacting adult swim after this and making a fully licensed version?
At first the music was really nice but after 2 minutes going back and forth trying to fix time it got a little bit annoying. The theme was brilliant. Keep up the good work! Tiny Rick yeah!!!
Cool art. But I didn't actually get the idea. What multiples the scene and what divides it?
The theme was great, but the instructions could be clearer on that time divides. :)
Very cool adaptation of that Rick and Morty episode. One complaint that I have is that it doesn't run as smoothly as it could in the browser, might benefit from something other than Unity :)
Pretty hard for me, but I enjoyed to play it ! simple game but effective !
Fab!
Whaaaat? A Rick and Morty game! Cooool! Perhaps a little bit difficult for me but it is damn Rick and Morty. Congrats for the game!
A a fan of Rick and morthy, I Approve!) A bit too much challenging tho. Art is pretty nice!
Nice graphics but hard to understand what to do ^^'
A very Good Idea, the game began a little addictive. I don't know where to look with all thes universe ^^
I think the instruction could be a little bit more clear, but still a good game Good work
Love Rick & Morty so was won over already, really interesting idea.
Yay! Rick and Morty!!!!! Firstly great job using R&M to this theme xD haha loved it! Although it gets a bit hard... but bottom line good art and all the best :) Pls feel free to play my game: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/split
Really self-explanatory, simple mechanics but it can get quite tough. Nice one.
The art is really nice, the music is catchy albeit gets a bit repetitive and the way you thought about the theme is really cool, which makes for a fun game.
It wasn't always obvious to me when I did something right and when I did something wrong, though. Trying to think of ways to communicate this to the player in a more clear way could improve the game.
Overall, a fun little Rick & Morty game.
love the Kurzgesagt art style! Nice concept but the instructions could be clearer.
Oh yes... I definitely will play this...
Oh Yes! Picke riiick! I love it from the music to the actual idea! Win on my first time but wasn't able to replicate :D really fun! Thx for it! Good job :)
Pretty difficult, but wow what a great idea! This is such a simple yet perfect game for the theme, I love it!
The art looks great and the game is well polished! However the game play was not my cup of tea
Loved the reference, beautiful and polished game, I like ricky and morty
Nice job! I wasn't ever clear on what we're matching to - the image in the top left? - and while having a bunch of little screens is a pretty cool effect, I don't think it makes the gameplay more meaningful (it's easier to wait for an adjacent box to match, so there's not really a reason to click in one of the many, many screens that appear). I like the feel of this and it's different from every other game I've played this jam. Thank you!
I'm laughing a lot, I liked it a lot, the subject pleased me a lot, perfect! I really loved it, as simple as it is.
Hah! This was fun. Hard, definitely, but fun. Loved the music, the art, and the simple yet deceptively difficult gameplay.
Good use of a simple game mechanic, and the art style was really well done. Thanks for submitting!
Fun game Finished it in my 2nd try... as long as you don't screw up early its easy to beat. nice theme nice art good music... I want my Mcnugget sauce
Simple and unique. Well done!
I like that it's a simple mechanic fits the story in the show nicely. Good job!
Got the feeling of multiple universe and a sense of quantum mad. Also, I think it did conveys the feeling of how happy it is when you see a good numerical results in the laboratory.
I like Rick and Morty too. But I just dont get the game. The hint in the first screen is confusing. Am I supposed to look for a specific image like with "morty at left, no holding bottle" or what?
Rick and Morty! S02E01 !!! One of my favorite episodes! I love this one! The rick in this game is so cool! It's definitely that the more you have, the worse it is.
But as a game, it's difficult to show that theme. Maybe you can keep splitting space-time. When the game starts, there is only one world, seconds later,there are eight world and keep increasing. Now the player will know he has to do something.
Really cool! Also really hard, I rarely made it right.
Hey this is episode 1 season 2 lol,
anyway, i got the trick to combine the universes, so i beat the game quite easily,
the theme clear on this game tho
Got lucky on my first try so I had to play it again to mess things up! :D Simple yet fun concept.
You should have said in the description than you must have an IQ of at least 300 to play this game.
Great game. I really love the gameplay and graphics!
If you are interested, please check out my LD40 game [Escape Infection!](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/escape-infection)
I think at the very least, you should opt out from the "graphics" rating, because your game visuals are closely based on someone else's copyrighted work. (check the jam rules for more)
As for the theme, this game and the quantum uncertainty situation fits it really well! Great connection!
As for the game play, I can't even fix the quantum once because my reaction time is above the switching time when they are all the same. Pity. :)
Very punitive, i liked it :)
Graphics are good! Just like watching kurzesagt! + It really fits into the theme!
Nice idea! If you watched the episode, it's really easy to get the concept. But my reaction time is too big, i can never get it right =/ Good work however!
I love the idea. Well executed!
Well done on the simple control scheme. It makes just jumping in and playing very easy.
I can play it up to about 16 universes then my reaction time is too slow.. lull nice one
Great homage to R&M. The theme connection couldn't be better chosen :D
I still have problems figuring out what to do, though :sweat_smile:. I'm not sure if it's just a matter of patience and quick reflexes or if there's something else I'm missing.
I'll eventually get there, but in the meantime congrats for a very solid entry!
It looks like old game "pairs" but much harder... Pluses: it's good visual and music! Minuses: when it became more then 10 realities game became a lottery. But it completly fits to them... So it's great!)
Awesome (I'm told) for Ricky & Morty fans, but for those of us not in the Rick & Morty club, totally and utterly confusing. Art looks great and sound is fun.
I can feel my IQ rising when playing this
Good implementation, simple but efficient.
It's a fun spin on the R&M episode and a good application of the theme, with super simple mechanic! :) Super hard, especially because it didn't run very fast on my notebook (about 5 fps), but I managed (somehow) to win it
Points to improve IMO: * Slow down the speed a bit of the changes of characters * Music is a bit repetitive * Rick would NEVER have different poses because Rick is never uncertain :D
I love Rick and Morty！And the idea is pretty good
This is one of my favorite episodes of Rick and Morty! =) Mechanics is simple but challenging. Start button combined with a tutorial - what an idea! Good work!
wow man nicely done
I finally win ! good job simple but was fun.
Damn, that's a really cool way to implement the theme! Good job, everything works well!
R&M is too smart for me. Well done! Interesting concept. Screw up a few things and it takes exponentially longer to put things back into place. Negative point is I'm just too slow.
Looks terrific and the game over is quite satisfying, but I didn't get the goal of the game from the tutorial?
Simple but surprisingly catchy. I guess the main issue is that you can easily win the game without really getting it, just with a couple of lucky clicks at the beginning.
Cool idea tying Rick and Morty with the theme. Good job.

Nice idea, though you could have started in an easier fashion. Too much things to take care of right out of the bat!
I liked the idea. Love the show. Cheers.
Siimple but fun :) took a while before I realised how to put time together again though... oops. I think the R&M fangame aspect added to it as well, as this was a fun episode :D and made for a goofy game mechanic
I like fan-games. It's nice to see one. Difficulty feels a bit weird as it gets harder and harder when you get it wrong. And if you get it right at your first try, super easy to finish. But it does fit the theme more than most games. the art rocks !
Weird and difficult! But I like it!
Nice little game. Really hard but have a nice mood :).
This could be a good game if it had original characters, better and original graphics, better sound, and better user feedback. Try using UE4 next time.
...
@technomancy-studios you have some valid criticism but that last sentence is very ignorant and doesn't even make sense since the game probably wouldn't benefit from UE at all.
LOL this is great. I accidentally won the first time without really getting what I was doing. Then I purposely tried to fell and it made me laugh a lot. Thanks for making this <3
I don't want to be a party pooper, but isn't making a game like this against the spirit of the competition? You're using copyrighted characters, without permission, with no sort of twist on the conceit taken from the episode... Plus, I'm pretty sure the art assets are taken from here https://dribbble.com/shots/2285669-Rick-and-Morty.
I hate to be negative, but 300+ ratings done in 3 days after the jam? Seems suspicious to me. The game's not bad, but I feel like the Rick and Morty theme plus the enormous amount of ratings have artificially pushed the popularity of the game.
The art style was nice, reminded me of kurzgesagt. Music was a little obnoxious after continuous gameplay but overall pretty polished
This was a really fun game and I like the rick and morty theme. The game is really challenging though but still fun. The graphics are amazing, music a bit repetitive. But good job :)
How some people have noticed, your game based on a 3rd-party artwork. So why didn't you opt-out graphics? And 340 ratings are like "what?". But I see that the smart balance is negative, so I am making an assumption that admins know about you.
Good idea small great game!
My playthrough: https://youtu.be/eI-0UBhhy8U
It was a bit confusing at first because it wasn't clear which picture/dimension is supposed to match with what and that I'm not supposed to click the picture if Rick's holding a bottle. Though yeah maybe you left them for the players to figure out themselves.
I got linked to this one by a friend that knows I'm a Rick and Morty fan, so of course it looked interesting to me. It's a great tribute to the episode, although mechanically-wise, I still don't get it at all. I won 2 games. First one I won was by trying to match stuff up, and I ended up more or less thinking that the patterns were arbitrary. So, dumb luck.
Second time, I accidentally double clicked in the first second and still won :I
Still, the presentation is superb. The graphics make it look like a "barely within copyright infringement territory" game, and the music is very fitting. I like how it managed to adapt the split-timelines style to perfection.
That's all I've got to say. Possibly nothing that hasn't been said before, but I thought it'd be nice to reinforce some comments :P [In behalf of my team](twitter.com/whalesandgames), we hope to see more from you in the future. Kudos! :whale:
Hate to be a party pooper as well, but since the art is based on this https://dribbble.com/shots/2285669-Rick-and-Morty and the ratings are pretty fishy, I'm calling @pov
This was hilarious to play with friends. Definitely should market as a party game.
Oh wow, this gets really hard really quick! Great silly game, great for a sit-down with friends. Now very much longevity, though.
its a nice take on the particular R&M episode. however it will be a shame if the assets are taken elsewhere as mentioned by others
Very new concept that innovate the match-pair games with special art and music. It's quite difficult though. One problem: instruction is not clear that I had played several times before I know the goal. Besides the grandpa's pose should also be same but nothing introduces this.
Nice litte game. The music is catchy and makes the game way more fun. The game seemed impossible at first, but i recovered from 4*4, which felt great!
really cool idea to take that multiple dimensions thing, and very well executed actually. It is very hard in fact but with some mega seed juice it's totally doable
An interesting take on the theme. Plus, it's a Rick & Morty reference, so you've got that going for you... even though I'm not sure what the legal gray area is there.
The mechanics are a neat idea. It's pretty easy to solve, but if you screw up on your first match it gets impossible pretty fast. I guess that's the point though, so well done. :)
Very elegant idea for the theme. I had fun playing it with a friend :upside_down:
Very nice Idea and cool graphics. Quite hard though
So yes... I had to play your game... You guessed right -> Because I love R&M. I had to try several times until I got the "right" or "wrong" and finally I won!!!
Ok... That is also my biggest minus (not clear what to do)... I guess you can life with that. Even as a fan of the show I "forgott" or had to think about the gameplay. However I love the "split universe" idea also as a game.
The Art is well done and nice. However I'm not sure, if this is to close to the original character? (I have not downvoted because of this... but you might get downvotes here from others?!)
Summary - Very nice game. I sent out the link to friends of mine a minute ago... (Not for "Ludum Dare" but for "nice game" reasons)
Keep on coding!
Really hard going from 4->2 and 2->1, got it eventually with quite a bit of luck I guess. One suggestion: if you fail from the starting position there is no benefit to getting it right over just resetting (by quickly failing a few more times). I guess it would be better to start from the worst possible situation.
