I don't know if it's just me, but I got an error when I caught the first piece of trash. Hopefully you can fix it and if I remember to I'll come back to this in a day or two.

Edit: That problem's gone now - the game was playable, though the end screen did say my score was zero. I enjoyed playing, but it got repetitive after a while - I think the difficulty did seem to increase, but I think especially later in the game it should have risen a bit faster so that a single round doesn't become too long and repetitive. Overall though it's a nice game, especially the art, and I enjoyed playing it.

Hey @nathanoc thanks for your comment. Can you help me trouble shoot? Which platform, which browser?

The game is working fine from my side, maybe the game screen size a little big, but nothing that a little zoom out cannot fix, the game is simple but fun. I recommend to show the container order somewhere, because at first I was failing because I couldn't remember the correct one hehe. Great job!

Seems a little too easy since the penalty for catching the wrong color trash is fairly low but overall I liked it! Music was very fitting.

Simple and easy. Except for when it crashed.

Quite difficult at first, but didn't seem to get harder over time, definitely something you should think about next time!

I got 3600 now beat my score okay? Maybe when you lose you could use all of your collected garbage to build a home

miime 2022-04-04 19:22

Thank you @roughskin ! I will try your recommendations!

miime 2022-04-04 19:23

Thanks @tylerstraub ! I will try more penalty points!

miime 2022-04-04 19:23

Thank you @waysneighborgo2 ! I'm gald you like it!

miime 2022-04-04 19:24

Thank you @pirate-rob ! It gets more difficult every 10 Seconds. But the increase is fairly slow. I will look into it.

miime 2022-04-04 19:25

Thank you @yokin ! Awesome Score! Mine was 2500-ish. Great idea.

Fun little game! Took a while to notice the color coding to understand what to catch in which bucket. It was a bit hard to do with the fast falling object but it helped that the scores goes in the negative to give a chance to figure it out!

I didn't reach a win state and didn't see progression towards it.

I had no issues playing if I went straight into the game but did get the mentioned crash if I visited the "Story" page before starting the game.

edit: finished the last sentence

It's a nice game, and I didn't have any of the crashes either. Good going!

the game controls are a little not convenient, also trash was too fast, hope you fix this, anyway great job

miime 2022-04-06 08:54

@voxar Thanks! Yeah I could have made it cleared what to do. There is no win state. You catch it until you can't, because it gets faster and faster.

@jzucc12 Thank you so much!

@msd Thanks for your comment. What was not convenient? I mean what could be better for you. I will look into the fast trash!

As for me i found game too hard, always ended with score 0, it took time to memorize 123 buttons and colors, and i often misclicked. found it little distractive. As faster it going faster i lost all my points. But anyway nice game and art and music, looks like this is fully ended policshed game

The cleaner aesthetic is glorious and fits really well! A simple but effect concept that is has now been done exceptionally well, fantastic job :)

Nice music adds to the mood, gj. I would add some easing when character stops, so it would not just snap as soon as you release strafe buttons, but overall nice entry

Nice simple game! Though the Web/HTML version of the game doesnt work.

maneggadverureman 2022-04-20 02:30

Cool Art style, good music, and a fantastic mood. The difficulty curve is slow, but it forgivable due to the game's infinite nature. Good Entry, and fun concept!
