Very fun and innovative! :-) It's very difficult from the beginning though and the controls feel a little clunky, took me a couple of tries to get even past the third wave ;) Great Job altogether!

This is a solid game. Gets hard pretty quickly. Those chiptunes are rockin'!

phillserrazina 2017-12-04 03:22

I'm surprised at how much fun I found myself playing this. Honestly, give it some upgrades, some different level layouts, all those shenanigans and you have a nice, casual, relaxing (anxienty inducing) game!

Wave 7 on first try, but gets hard really quick, which is a good thing as it is still fun! Great audio.

jcmonkey 2017-12-04 03:36

nice little game there, after a while when all the balls just start coming down its like oh shit what do i do now.

formalcloud 2017-12-04 03:53

Simple yet challenging! Nice take on the theme!

Good animation on the catcher.

mark-kennedy 2017-12-04 05:09

Loved the whole experience. The bounciness of the character was awesome, as well as the music.

saucygames 2017-12-04 05:39

I like the aesthetic to the game, sound effects and music is good as well. Cool mechanic with level of difficulty being determined by health. Nice job.

Wow, this is great! I really like the squash and stretch in the player's jump animation. I think that the difficulty might scale better if it changed the duration of each wave as opposed to the number of balls. There were a few times that it seemed like there wasn't really any possible way to avoid anything, so maybe after some number of balls spawn there could be a delay between each next one? Anyway, it was very fun, definitely one of my favorites that I've played so far.

tomas-selmeci 2017-12-04 10:18

This fits the theme so wel!! Well done

tschery 2017-12-04 12:30

Satisfying and challenging =)

Simple looking, but challenging game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 40 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) [I fixed this video to have proper audio!] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uA0ovyGILHs

Simple and awesome. Great game. Only thing I'd add is maybe more yellow balls when your life is low, just so you can get to those higher levels to see how crazy it can get, or let us start with more lives.

lautregars 2017-12-04 18:44

Quite noice ! The feedback on the square, the little mario-like jump noises, the physics of the balls... Those are really good ! You say you're new to Unity but you should check my game to see what's the difference between good news and bad news :P

Else, about the game, I really liked the chiptunes, and the sound design in general : It's neat that you got an option menu to put the sounds effects lower. I'm just a little disappointed in the general rythm, it's personal tastes but I prefer when things are even more nervous, even if the game has a good difficulty raise :) Nice and efficient !

When you got 6 health and after wave have only 2

So it is very interesting simple challanger with cute graphic. I like it!

azlen 2017-12-04 20:40

A very challenging game!

I love how you've managed added personality and style to something as simple as a square. I wish I was better at dodging the hazards; although I did find that it was easier to wait for the hazards to settle down a bit (not jumping all over the place) before I try to collect the health.

gamepopper 2017-12-04 21:15

So glad to see a minimalist block with squash and stretch, if you had the block lean when moving side to side it would be perfect. It was simple and challenging, and the physics of the balls added to the randomness of it all. Great work!

pvtroswold 2017-12-05 03:03

Nice music, nice graphics, nice concept, nice.

toboggan 2017-12-05 03:09

The jelliness of the player square was cute, it reminded me of Thomas Was Alone. Also very TWA in that it felt alive despite being so minimal. Interesting use of the theme too.

dorblin7z7 2017-12-05 06:20

Very great presentation, and a tight gameplay loop. Speed up the time between rounds and this would be way more addictive than it already is.

alex-bryant 2017-12-05 10:24

Love the challenge and the visual style. Sure not much was done with the visuals so I can't rate it too high but the squishy animations and trail renders really made it stand out even though they are such simple things. Good work on that.

As for performance, we need to talk about that. It ran well, and that's too well. Either movement speed is timed to frame-rate, or your have it set wayyyy too high. It's a great game but it's one that needs fine control. If it was just too easy with slower movement speeds, make more red balls.|

Music was great too. I wasn't even expecting sound but I was pleasantly surprised. The game also fit the theme really well with a take I haven't quite seen yet in my ratings journey!

jeromwaarom 2017-12-05 17:15

Simple, but very addictive little game! I absolutely love the elastic jump animation. I would recommend turning on Anti-Aliasing next time you make a game with this abstract style of graphics, makes it look a bunch better!

blubberquark 2017-12-05 17:51

Straightforward take on the theme, punchy audio, clean graphics, good game feel!

gerardb 2017-12-05 19:39

What a clean, simple and stylish way of nailing it! I really really liked it. Super clear, juicy, good controls, good theme, challenging and stylish and simple looks. One of the best games I've seen by far!

skullpixel 2017-12-05 22:00

The level of polish present here is awesome. I'm amazed at how good it feels to move around the little square. You have done quite a good job with this little game.

purplealien 2017-12-05 22:58

Very solid game, so fun to play! Square... I mean character control feels so nice :grin: Also, nice difficulty curve, getting so hard once the player catches the goal of the came. In general, great job! :D

velvetlobster 2017-12-06 00:27

I love the choice of colors! Solid gameplay also!

jchaplin 2017-12-06 17:38

my favorite so far! great design, look & feel... very well done!!!

annie-owl 2017-12-06 19:32

Awesome game. Simplistic graphics are really fitting for this simplistic gameplay, and the soundtrack is great. I really envy people who can come up with such simple, but enjoyable ideas.

pinneh 2017-12-07 00:39

Good idea, and a nice amount of polish too!

wizzardmaker 2017-12-07 15:11

Great idea and you did a fantastic job of implementing it. The game feels really solid.

I love how intuitive the game is, you can just start it and instantly know what to do. 3/10 IGN (4.5/5)

Taking care about your health is a good opportunity and I am currently using https://wayofleaf.com/delta-8/best-delta-8-thc-gummies where I am reading information concerning CBD and other things about how to do it.

I always try to think about my health. I often exercise, eat right, go to bed early. Recently I started taking supplements which you can read more about on this site https://nucific.com/nucific-reviews/ where I was able to get acquainted with useful information for me. I feel cheerful and great!

Good day! Recently, my retired parents have had trouble sleeping. A colleague recommended Vibes CBD oil to me, I placed an order on the website https://vibescbd.co.uk . A very nice site, now parents use it well. They were also satisfied with the products, especially appreciated the naturalness of these products.

Hello everyone! I really liked this game, even though it is quite difficult, I still can't get to level 10 in any way. I also liked the color palette. The only suggestion I have is to add control with a computer mouse so that you can move and jump. You can also add a different level design, let's say add more blocks. I would like more games from this author and more new ideas. https://bestpotdelivery.com/thc-delivery
