Well, I liked what was there.

Perhaps teleporting straight onto an opponent shouldn't work though. First round I didn't realise there is an actual green pickup, because I got it right away instead of slicing past it.

The game has very good potential. For now he is not nervous enough and lacks variety, but **the main mechanics is there and function very well**.

Sorry that the jam ended up being too good.

If possible add a post-jam version and tag me, **I want see the result. =)**

Cool idea and functions. I did not understand what to aim for but this had good potential :)

Not easy to understand at the first look but when understud it is pleasant idea. Nice innovation !

The idea seems to be very promising! I would play something with this core game mechanics

Nice mood & mechanics! Audio is currently broken in the latest chrome build (thanks Google!) but had audio in firefox. Really liked the teleport mechanic - bit of a plan-ahead & puzzle in one.

I'll probably push back the cyan bridge tonight. I think I have more sequences to try adding

It took me a while to figure out what to do. This was one of the most unique mechanics that I've seen in LD41. While obviously incomplete (I wasn't getting audio?), I found that the puzzle element of trying to discover how to play was very engaging. I'd encourage you to continue developing this further.

Thanks very much @csanyk! I wish I had the time to do a proper tutorial, but some of the aspects are hard to express simply... I spent a lot of time coding that teleport-enemy, for example, but never got a good place to use it to show the workings of the game

Also, the audio bug is a recent change that Chrome made in the last couple of weeks. It has effed everyone doing a JavaScript game. Maybe FireFox will work?

@foodzilla I actually liked this game a lot! The graphics were really nice, and it was fun to play. The mechanics were cool. :thumbsup:

I love the aesthetics, they're beautiful and fresh. Very cool. The gameplay /mechanic/game design is great, simple but addictive. I hope you develop it to a complete WebGL game. Somehow I reached a point when no more obstacles/enemies appeared.. Maybe a bug from my browser. Anyway, nicely done!!
