Oops my computer lagged, sorry

I think I can vaguely see there it was going. The music and sound effects are pretty good at establishing the ambiance before EVERYONE SUFFERS shows up. Would love to hear what an expanded version would be like.

For a 10 hour game, this is excellent. You managed to get a good design and even include sound effects in a short time. For a Compo game, this is still pretty good. Sure the design is minimalist, but I love how the principle of time-management plays out while you race against the world falling apart around you.

The first level was easy enough, since I could more or less beeline to the goal. The second level is where the game shines, since it forces you to plan out a route and then requires perfect execution to win. I think were this a longer game I would have preferred a turn-based system, maybe on a grid, since the controls did feel a little sticky and the hitboxes and time limits were unforgiving. That would change the focus purely to planning the route, rather than executing it. But this isn't a longer game, so what you have works fine.

All in all, great work.

is this even possible? i cant find a way to get back to the center after touching all of the colors. the idea is neat, and it's pretty well polished. i just wished i could see if there was more, haha

I see that I haven't been too clear that the goal of the game is to get to the blinking block. It's not visible unless it's fullscreen.

drunkardwolf 2018-08-13 09:06

This is very clever. Great idea, executed well. Love the music too :D Good job!

Great concept, pretty frustrating game (in a good way).

deniskazantsev 2018-08-13 10:48

Disable itch.io fullscreen button because it works not like Unity fullscreen and made me confused.

jiri-one 2018-08-13 10:58

Nice concept, but hard! if this would be a full game with a tutorial and such it difficulty scaling it would be more fun . I also enjoyed the audio a lot.

simonthecase 2018-08-13 11:40

@deniskazantsev. I changed the viewport dimensions. I hope it fixes the problem.

toad 2018-08-13 12:33

Really interesting game! I think I had viewport issues despite using the Unity fullscreen button (using Firefox), but the concept shone through.

Cool small game :)

dangogamedev 2018-08-13 20:32

Interesting but seems very unforgiving. Though that is probably just me being terrible.

krapht 2018-08-14 00:36

Honestly, I just wish there were more levels. You did a great job at making shapes become walls because you need them later. Loved it!

tontonpizza 2018-08-14 23:57

Good concept. Maybe we should not be able to trigger 2 area at once, was frustrating when only a pixel of me would trigger the wrong zone

simonthecase 2018-08-15 06:00

@TontonPizza good idea

ossi 2018-08-15 07:28

I really like this concept. The atmosphere the music and sound effects give off is really nice, especially since you only had a short time to do it. Very nice!

I had a problem with one of the levels though, not entirely sure how it's possible to get there unless I'm missing something.

Cool concept and great work for only a few hours. Unfortunately, even in full screen I don't think I could see the whole puzzle. It was pretty difficult. I like the atmosphere you managed to create with only a few assets.

oats 2018-08-15 07:32

This is very impressive for 10hrs of work. I couldn't finish because it never showed everything in the screenshot, it seemed to be zoomed in too much.

simonthecase 2018-08-15 07:39

@ossi I promise it's beatable. Just difficult.

ossi 2018-08-15 07:47

@simonthecase I just managed to beat it, that level's a tricky one!

diablo 2018-08-15 10:51

Great concept, and amazing for 10 hours work. I really enjoy how the shapes of pieces dictate how you should progress as you want to have the most amount of time for the least amount of distance. I wasn't able to finish the first level because I couldn't see a blinking block, even in full screen, and so for a quite a while I thought the goal was to clear all the blocks with careful planned movements, which is a cool mechanic on its own.

freezedice 2018-08-16 07:13

Interesting concept. Its really impressive for 10 hours of work. Also the game is really difficult (but its good) and tricky. Also I was sometimes missing restart button

albin 2018-08-16 20:01

Really interesting concept that I haven't seen anywhere before. Good job making this, especially concidering you only worked on it for less than 10 hours.

moorhuhn 2018-08-18 19:24

nice game, I liked it. But there is one little thing that you could have implemented, even with the short amount time. A reset button. It was a bit annoying after trying the last level over and over to wait until the animation finished for restarting the game

j-carlson 2018-08-20 06:09

Nice game, made it thru the first level, but 2nd level I'm not sure how it could be beat. Sound is a little slow for as fast as you have to move to try and beat the level. But not bad.
