Amazing visuals and really tight and good feeling movement system! I really like the movement of the red cores, they feel erratic and fun to dodge past. The quantum core wrecked me everytime though, i found it very difficult. I also really enjoyed the death save mechanic for the red cores, giving me a chance to mash to come back to life made it a lot less punishing!

@teegan thank you for your feedback. The game is really quite difficult, this is the point of it, because it is unstable. :D Due to its "unstable", you may find some other bugs, but I hope you like the game. :)

Game looks great! Easy to get the hang of, but gets difficult once you encounter the quantum cores. Also I like that you incorporated the theme into not just gameplay, or aesthetics, but both! Didn't encounter any bugs, so good job on the polish too!

I liked the visual. Nothing super fancy, but very nice. This is probably the main characteristic of the game for me - it is pleasant.

I enjoyed it! I got absolutely blatted by purple balls over and over again. Those things are faaaast. The colours are excellent, the world looks good. Very hard though! I'd try and scale back the difficulty ramp but good stuff!

Wow! Really cool gameplay, graphics and audio. But it's too hard for me. И спасибо за локализацию.

werfest 2021-10-07 19:16

@holbinski thanks for you review!

werfest 2021-10-07 19:19

@darthboseiju the game was meant to be so difficult, but judging by the reviews, I think we really went overboard with the difficulty.

werfest 2021-10-07 19:26

@nikaz thanks for you review. Не за что. :)

jackaljk 2021-10-07 20:50

Aesthetically this is really nice and distinctive. The gameplay isn't bad too. I'm not convinced by the randomly moving red balls, I think their erratic movement takes away from the fun a little bit. Also, the button mashing minigame is a bit dull. The mechanic is fine but I think it needs more feedback, like more graphical effects. Overall good job guys!

shea-kelly 2021-10-07 23:31

its good for a game fun and additive, good job

sploky 2021-10-08 04:38

Amazing art. But the game is pretty hard.

quoc 2021-10-08 10:52

Wow those graphics are amazin. This is very interesting and fun to play

werfest 2021-10-08 20:33

@jackaljk randomly moving balls are part of the instability. :) But, anyway thanks for your review. We thought about a few mini-games, such as Among Us, but did not come up with something that could be quickly implemented.

werfest 2021-10-08 20:34

@shea-kelly, @sploky, @quoc thanks you!

trexxak 2021-10-09 01:48

whoa that was cool! Really unique mechanics in this game! Had a lot of fun playing :D

vishwah 2021-10-09 11:21

nice game dude

joror 2021-10-09 11:43

Cool agility game - the rolling felt enough in control to work. The 'clicker' minigame is also a fun little extra. Mr purple chaser got me in the end tho. :)

fiakaiera 2021-10-09 17:59

I like the concept and you're right, you went quite too hard on this one! Though it's not the mashing minigame that's stopping me, it's the purple reactors. I love the GTA V touch there on death~

Those purple ones can be described by my writer mind as "being the perfect goalie of an unstable soccer ball random passing by".

I really the style you all are going for and it find it quite very pleasing to look at! Though a space station aesthetic game and then a reactor main menu caused quite a mismatch in the visual theme. Nonetheless, it's quite fun to play. Good work!

Максимально красивая картинка, приятный простой геймплей с интересными особенностями

werfest 2021-10-09 19:07

@trexxak thanks you! Whats about different?)

werfest 2021-10-09 19:08

@vishwah thanks you so much!)

werfest 2021-10-09 19:10

@joror thanks. Hey, Mr.Purple is not alone, but don't tell anyone about it. ;)

werfest 2021-10-09 19:11

@fiakaiera thank for full review. We really appreciate it!

werfest 2021-10-09 19:12

@t1h4n спасибо, мой друг! :)

trexxak 2021-10-09 19:34

@werfest oh sorry, I guess I wasn't really too clear, apologies. So what I really liked and thought was unique was the way you had to repeatedly push the spacebar after colliding with an atom, also the chasing big balls and how to disable them was very interesting!

xiyou 2021-10-10 10:06

This looks fantastic, death along with the familiar sound. Very fun game

captandrey 2021-10-10 15:41

➕ классные модели

➕ прикольная идея с qte после касания с шариками

➕ веселая отсылка к гта)

➖ странное движение красных шаров

➖ фиолетовые шары слишком сильные и встречаются почти сразу

➖ не понял как пройти, и можно пройти ли

⚡быстрая правка⚡: фиолетовых значительно замедлить

werfest 2021-10-10 19:02

@trexxak there are pillars in the room with the purple ball, you need the purple ball to collide with them to destroy it.

werfest 2021-10-10 19:03

@xiyou thanks! You are the first to appreciate the sound. Let's say to our sound designer for happy. :)

werfest 2021-10-10 20:12

@captandrey спасибо за отзыв, ещё и яркий. :) Движение красных шаров спонтанное, потому-что собственно, нестабильность. Шары да, действительно переборщили, а по поводу встречи с ними, то, там маленький уровень, чтобы не надоедало ездить каждый раз заново и заново. Фиолетовые шары уничтожаются с помощью столкновения их с белыми столбами в комнате.

wakka2 2021-10-11 22:04

great job, those purple balls are mean!

werfest 2021-10-12 19:59

@wakka2 he-he, this is true. Thanks!)

basset-romain 2021-10-17 15:40

Very Nice game. I had a lot of fun playing it apart those purple balls going very fast. I don't know if it's wanted, but we can see the debug collision of the purple ball.

werfest 2021-10-17 20:59

@basset-romain debug collision? o_O So strange.. Thanks for feedback and review, bro!

python-b5 2021-10-21 19:52

Wow, this game was super impressive! It had great graphics and was pretty fun to play.

Nice work! :)
