EVERYTHING is simple. BUT IT'S SO MUCH FUN. Keep it up! Keep it up! :D

I've probably seen games with 4k graphics today. But I have not had as much fun on those as I did this. This has huge potential on mobile :)

ranjan 2018-08-13 00:33

Simple, but really fun. Great job!

memel06 2018-08-13 16:31

This simple game deserves a mobile version. It's incredibly fun! Nice entry bro! really solid.

danilo-chiarlone 2018-08-13 16:42

I agree with @memel06 ~ this game really deserves a mobile version! Loved it!

allan-kong 2018-08-13 18:24

Simple and fun. BTW, my mouse is on fire

wongkongphooey 2018-08-13 18:31

Top marks for innovation, this is a really fun game! It's simple yet challenging and I think it's got a lot of potential if you carry on developing it. Well done!

randdir 2018-08-13 19:50

Well actually i loved when you got minimalist style but to be honest with that mechanics i just hope you can do better. Why ? 'cause the simple of the mechanics is very cool and addictive ! Keep it up you got something really interesting pal.

andre-van-zuydam 2018-08-13 23:30

The simplicity was good, I didn't like the sound. The instructions were clear, good job in the time you had. Please don't release for mobile, I'm not sure when to stop ;) , a score counter vs other people will make it a winner.

omni 2018-08-13 23:32

Simple, yet enough depth to try to get better at it. Keep it up!

phantomopenboxing 2018-08-13 23:35

You should port this to mobile :D

paprigames 2018-08-13 23:35

Addicting casual game! This got me trying many different techniques, like rushing for loops and playing it safe for longer games, Managed to get 6 500 points with balanced tactic! This would work very well as a mobile game as is, or with little more features.

florian-van-strien 2018-08-13 23:37

While quite simple, this game is really fun, and deceptively challenging. I think the audio could've been improved a bit, but the graphics worked really well. Good job!

yamiog 2018-08-13 23:53

It was pretty fun and addictive. You should probably put it on mobile.

shockwire 2018-08-14 00:20

Great game! Not being able to backtrack also made for some really tense and fun moments (especially when the columns are approaching the ceiling).

wheffle 2018-08-14 02:14

Pretty refreshing to play such a simple yet addicting game. Took a bit to wrap my head around the fact that you couldn't move left, kept killing myself. Duh, Greenie goes RIGHT, not left! Enjoyed it a lot, well done! This would really work great on mobile!

holdmeimscared 2018-08-14 11:29

Oh my gosh how am I so bad at this, and why is being so bad at it so much fun?

This is beautifully simple, and I enjoyed "press anything to move right". This game is exactly what it says on the tin. I agree with those saying this would be great on mobile - just tap the screen.

lars-erik 2018-08-14 15:18

Sweet little game. I instinctively press D to move right and get super confused when A also moves me right. :P Fun little distraction. You should make a mobile build with tap to move. No big feature suggestions, but can see loads of potential.

josia-roncancio 2018-08-14 19:48

Great stuff! I have to admit it took me a while to figure out how the scoring worked, since I somehow didn't immediately understand what "# of loops" was supposed to mean. I played the first couple of rounds trying to move as little as possible in the hopes that my multiplier would somehow increase :face_palm: (Those rounds were not very exciting :P)

Apart from that, a simple but fun concept very well executed. Good job! :)

team-trout 2018-08-15 02:30

The graphics might be simple but the game is a really great concept and great execution, too. :) I like the little touches, like how you can re-roll on the level randomizer at the beginning if all the blocks haven't fallen yet.

chipolux 2018-08-15 04:47

Love the simple graphics and intuitive gameplay! Could be a great little mobile game with the simple controls.

deformhead 2018-08-15 08:42

This is really good !

ayushman 2018-08-15 17:52

Simple yet awesome game to play. This game reminded of that road crossing like game in game boy. The sound was also very good and satisfying. Overall a really polished and nice game!

suchista 2018-08-15 19:17

3883 :) Nice simple idea and cool execution

antonsem 2018-08-15 19:37

This is harder than it looks! Feels simple, challenging and polished.

shp 2018-08-15 19:47

Simple concept but it works, wish there was a bit more animation to the blocks falling to help grasp the overall picture of the playing field better!

garygreen 2018-08-15 20:04

I loved that this was a straightforward idea, but so difficult to master. Definitely had me saying "Just one more go. I've got to beat that score."

mike-inprinciple 2018-08-17 04:02

The thing I could not wrap my head around was the fact that you go through falling blocks to land under them, even though on the previous column you are comparatively higher. So, in 3D terms, you clip though the falling block. That got me in a non fun way. What got me in a fun way, is that my brain screamed press left, and the character walked right as the premise of the game goes.

t-mw 2018-08-17 14:11

Simple, but still feels polished. I had similar issues as the previous comment, with thinking I could land on blocks.

quicklyer 2018-08-17 21:41

Thanks everyone for the nice comments and good feedback, some stuff I'd have never thought of. I'll be reviewing them closer and taking it all into consideration for next time.

schizoid2k 2018-08-18 00:08

I'm agreeing with the masses here... simple, yet fun and challenging. Nice job! A mobile version would be cool.

ratherjolly 2018-08-30 17:52

Brilliant! Your game is simple and extremely fun! Everything in this plays nicely. You incentivize high scores in a very effective way that encourages replayability. Since there is only one input you could easily port this to anything and have it play great! This game will be one of those games I regularly go back to way after the fact. Excellent Job on this! I like it a lot:)

local-minimum 2018-09-01 06:20

Very simple but much fun. Surprisingly hard too. One time though it felt like the game really didn't give me any chance to win when it dropped hats on 5 columns in a row. My guess is that the drops were random and so maybe it would be good with a restriction there. Also the visuals got me thinking about loop synths, and it would probably add to the experience a whole lot if sound was based a bit on how the hats and green were landing and such. Maybe also increase the speed of the drops or frequency a tiny bit on each multiplier wrap pass thing.

blinkenlights 2018-09-02 06:42

A very nice, simple game with surprising depth and nice polish. Can't think of anything I would improve, apart from perhaps some music. Well done!

quicklyer 2018-09-04 22:56

Wow, I am completely humbled to get in the top 100 for fun. Again, wow. Thank you guys so much for the support and feedback. Really gives me the motivation to work a thousand times harder on the next one.
