This is a really awesome puzzle. There were a couple of times when I thought I had it all figured out but then I realized I had miscalculated. Great work!

This is a really awesome puzzle. There were a couple of times when I thought I had it all figured out but then I realized I had miscalculated. Great work!
Wow. Very polished, very cool narrative, the glitchy things were creative. I'm not really sure what to think about the story besides that it was good, but I think knowing that the theme is "connected worlds" helps me understand a little more of what happened. The music was awesome, the controls and gameplay were very smooth, and you had enough of the game each play through to do interesting things with but not enough to get annoying to replay over and over.
One of my favorites, easily.
I found this educational, which is awesome.
However, I had a lot of problems trying to click on the right word (it tended to give me a nearby word even though I clicked on the word itself), and I think some of the strings satisfy multiple expressions (though I don't know Regex very well so I could be wrong).
This really works well. Nice job!
Interesting concept for a game; you've got a cool idea.
Unfortunately, I could never figure out how to "connect device to siphon energy" Or was just touching the mine enough?
All this randomly generated stuff and statistics and physics and stuff is super impressive. The gameplay may not be much now but it sounds like you have some great ideas of how to expand it, and I think this has a lot of potential.
I appreciate your humor.
Is there a limited amount of fuel or something? On one of the planets I could only burn a few times before it stopped and made an error sound.
Thanks. I've added a tutorial since then so hopefully things make more sense now.
Thanks for the comments, all!
@theCoder15: I used the java.awt and javax.swing libraries.
I've seen this game concept a few times this Ludum Dare, but this is easily the best executed.
I liked this a lot.
It was funny, the graphics work really well with the game, and I only had to get all smelly and beg twice!
This is an awesome game. Very fun, great idea, well executed. A little easy but I enjoyed it a lot.
This is horrifyingly hilarious. I wish I had your mind.
The art was really good but the animation wasn't. The atmosphere felt great, though, and I thought the music fit really well. As for gameplay, I wish the three worlds with the pieces weren't exactly the same, and I needed to look at this page to figure out how to use the sword.
Overall I enjoyed the game though, especially the atmosphere.
Excellent graphics. I didn't think this was boring or short.
Fascinating idea! I couldn't help but wonder what the optimum move was in each case.
Interesting game.
Is there any pattern to putting two stones together to move platforms? I couldn't figure any out.
Surprisingly interesting game, I like it.
Scored 98, so close. :P
A bit buggy but I enjoyed it. It would've been nice not to have to start from the beginning every time I died.
Nice-looking Minecraft clone, looks very nice.
Gameplay could use some work, though, I think, since it's not hard to make it impossible for the zombies to get you.
Wow, this is a pretty awesome entry. Great gameplay and fun sound. :)
Very nice interpretation of the them and I thought was a fun game. Funny, too.
Nice idea, nice interpretation of the theme. I played the simplified version and got to level 5 of the original version, and I was convinced I was a creature in some sort of lab. :P
Very well done.
This game has some problems (like the controls), but it looks and sounds really good, and I like the idea. I'd really like to see a fixed version of this.
I like how the player square rotated, that was cool. The whole idea of slowly getting parts of the game, such as color and music, also worked well, I think.
You clearly put some thought into the dialogue, too.
Hahaha, love the ending! Hilarious.
That was awesome. Easily 5 stars for audio.
I was so happy that I finally got to hear the song all the way through.
Well done. This was a cool idea and it was well polished.
I do have a question, though. Were the thick black circles supposed to "kill" my expanding circles so that they no longer counted as intersecting? I spent a long time on level 3 trying to beat the level by making a circle, waiting until it was stopped over the X, and then making another circle that also stopped over the X. I get the feeling that this not working was intentional, but either it's a bug or something wasn't explained very well.
This is a really fun, cool game, once you figure out how everything works.
Nicely done. I was expecting some sort of goal other than staying alive, but it turned out that was difficult enough. :P Interesting and innovate gameplay, I like it.
Cool game. My only complaint is that it's annoying to have to start over whenever you die. It looked and sounded great though.
Took me a while to get the hang of it but that was pretty interesting. I'm happy to say I finally beat it!
Fun and funny!
I love this idea. Brilliant.
This is the type of thing I love to see in Ludum Dares.
Wow, this is really excellent. The intro is awesome, the gameplay is great, and the game itself is so polished and complete. I am amazed that you did this in 48 hours.
Very deep, makes you think.
I was impressed by the art as well. The gameplay was very unclear, though, and I wondered several times whether you'd not gotten around to doing the next part. Maybe the confusion is appropriate though?
Very nice game.
Unfortunately, it was pretty buggy so I couldn't finish. Dropping objects into the abyss only rarely gave me energy back, and at one point I couldn't build anything even though I had energy.
That said, I like the idea (excellent use of the theme), and the graphics and audio went with the game perfectly.
This is a very good-looking game, and the sound is nice, too. I spent longer on this game than I expected to.
It may be short, but this game has potential. I like the concept of switching the characters the way you did.
Keep up the good work!
