Interesting take. At first I was confused, but after a few tries I started being better at it!

Interesting take. At first I was confused, but after a few tries I started being better at it!
totally confused at first but very interesting concept. I can see this as a useful game to help children memorize states and find the links between them. Sadly, I only got 949 on my first go lol
Different :) I got stuck multiple times and couldn't find a way to restart the game. Also couldn't get the WebGL version working (Have later found out, switching to Chrome worked), it never loaded anything (loading bar stayed at 0%). Nice to be shown how bad I am at geography. Nice job.
Interesting concept! The music makes this quite intense! I tried Europe first, which I found hard because while I know where everything is, I wasn't ever sure where e.g. the difference between south and southwest would be.
The WebGL version works for me in firefox, by the way.
Hah > 3000 on europe, 200 on USA :| I feel like i'm in a clerk heaven. Nice one.
Also if clicking "back" on lowest depth, post-processing still applies
Clever concept! I really like the visuals and music. I think, there's something wrong with colliders since I wasn't able to click "back" when pointing right on it. Also, I've encountered some weird visual glitch (see in the end of the video). Would love to see more categories and some way to control the game with keyboard. :)
Here's my playthrough with no commentary: https://youtu.be/7wuxu2pZQlo
@fabighindaru Thank you! I would've loved to implemented a tutorial, but I estimated that I wouldn't be able to finish it in time as to where it would've been helpful enough. I probably could've written a better text-one though.
@monkeybit29 I like the concept, and thank you! Apologies for the initial confusion!
@incd021 Sorry about the WebGL build and getting stuck, I never ran into the problem and unfortunately didn't think it would happen. Thanks for playing!
@frank-gevaerts Thank you! This was my first-ever time making "music" for a LD. Also, Europe was definitely my worst theme. I worked off a slightly wonky Wikipedia collection of regions for Europe (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regions_of_Europe#/media/File:Europe_subregion_map_world_factbook.svg , if you're interested)
@enderr42 Wow! Great score!! I hade figured that no one would find the back button glitch, but alas, I estimated wrong.
@yngvarr Thank you for the kind words! Yeah, In my opinion, I think I might've gone a bit overboard on the post processing. The bulge was most likely not necessary. I find it funny that you chose the Binary Tree one first, which is, in my opinion, the hardest one (not that you knew that beforehand though! Sorry!).
Wow. What an interesting idea. the name is quite fitting, for some reason. I almost felt the chains wrapping around me and pulling me down. Strangely enough, the alphabet category was my best one. :-)
Nice game! It helped me practice US states, while listening to a nice electronic loop :) Good job!
A very interesting GAme. It's in general very difficult to describe the game. But after understanding how the GAme works, its pretty nice and interesting.
I faced some issues where it clicked on a button where i not aimed for and a shortcut for the Back Function or the Back Button always on the same spot would be great.
Well Done, Great Job
