Given how fast the game is it has obviously been mangled a bit by their video encoder :laughing:

Probably the coolest looking entry I've seen so far! Good job on that. I'll say maybe the text popups are a little too aggressive / big as they can take up quite a lot of the screen at any moment. Level 1 was also very unforgiving and confusing with everything going on haha, took me many attempts to clear. Overall, very cool game!
Looks cool, but not enough time to collect all 200 cubes in the first level, i tried many times, and for some reason its hard, could be more beginner friendly
Llamasoft, thats a name I've not heard in years haha This game is pretty epic! I love how accessible it is with devices. Great job doing all of this in the short amount of time! :D The music was awesome haha
I found it enjoyable. I wish there was a web version.
The most arcade-y game that I've played in a long time. The vibe is incredible. The music is great and the vocoder stuff when you move adds so much.
For some reason, I can't get past the first level, despite getting more than 200 yellow fuzzies. I tried both binaries.
Wonderfull visuals. A volume slider would have been awesome. Great job!
Ended all lvls, art is fantastic, love strong dynamics of the game!
Really cool idea and very intense. Loved the artstyle! Great job!
Super appreciate the warning up front about flashing lights. I think I would've enjoyed it more if I could reduce the flashing just a little bit. It hurt after a little while :smiley:
Love the frenetic vibes. I'm not able to get past level 1 but I can see the strategy and how the mechanics should line up to make it to the next level. I'll chalk this up to my own skill issue haha.
Well, this game definitely stands out from all the others! The visuals are actually very stylish, and the music adds to the atmosphere. Even though I couldn't play it for long, I still enjoyed it
Not sure why but on Linux I get more than 200 objects on level 1 and it restarts instead of taking to level 2 . Anyways, I am a bit sensitive to "flashy" games so I wouldn't be able to play it long anyways :sweat_smile: . Loved the mood though!
great atmosphere and the audio sets the tone well
This feels like a game that could use some kind of a tutorial. Visually and aurally it's incredible, but also that first level is ridiculously unforgiving, unless there's something important about the gameplay that I'm missing (the best I managed in the first level was only about 175/200 objects). If you run into a red arrow by accident, or end up on the wrong side of a column of them, that's basically the run right there, and I never saw either the clocks or the beer mentioned in the description (I mean, it's possible I did, but there is so much happening on-screen visually it's hard to figure out what things are except by running into them).
I've finished it with a score of 183 506 pts (don't know what taht represents tho), the first level was sure the most difficult one without the context of the game. I doesn't understand why at first, but then i realised the twist to finished it. Great game overall with an interresting visual !
Damn pretty! I don't get the objective though. It says I need 200 for the first level, the display had 206 when it started to fade and I still had to play level 1?
But really impressive music and visuals!
Gotta give props for not using a game engine, there maybe only a few of you guys but all of you clearly know what you are doing.
Glad i played this in windowed mode hahahha. Cool visuals though. couldn't get through the first level sadly :(
@endurion @6knowledge @island-jam-2-group-3 @pincushion Yeah. I think I might've made the first level too difficult. It really is a millisecond deal.. It might look like you're fine and then nope.. it was actually slightly too late :laughing: I'll have too make it a lot easier.
@infernaton Well done! I think you might have the best score! Also glad to see that someone made it past the first level :laughing:
Cool effects, the first level definitely felt the hardest and it was quite hard to know what was going on at times.

Nice game! I like the unique art style. For some reason the first level was by far the hardest imo, I think it would've been better if it was the last one, but I still managed to get through it and finish the game.
Loved the vibes, but could not get past the first level. Most I got was 195 or so.
Woah, lots of cool mechanics in this game! When you hit the beer jug and just collect everything in a perfect line- pure bliss! My score clocked out at 242329:

There were a lot of levels where I went slow in the beginning to get all the items to collect, then sped through with the methane boost, that seems to have done well for my score (although it led to the occasional nailbiter finish against the clock).
As I mentioned already this game feels super good to play. It has that arcade-like quality, that just makes you want to keep jumping back in and keep going to make it to the next level, I liked that a lot. Graphics-wise the artstyle is superb as well. I reminds me of Rez in all the good ways, which is another game with a genius art direction. Love it! Same for the music, it's really good and just keeps you in the loop. Top stuff! Very good game, great job!
Love the music! The visuals are cool too. Unfortunately, the first level is a bit too difficult for me and I couldn't beat it.
Great idea (love me some llamasoft!) and graphics. I also found the time for the first level quite punishing. There isn't much time to learn the control scheme before you are out of time.
Original visuals for sure! The music is awesome and fits the game perfectly. It's definitely too flashing and hectic for me but I understand where this is coming from and that there are players that can beat this kind of game. To me even level 1 was way hard :wink: I believe it would have been helpful to get some in-game hints and tips about what the different entities on the screen do. Anyway a very solid game. Grats!
