Like the pace of this game. The music is fitting. Movement and controls were intuitive although there were some slight physics glitches like random speed boost and glitches when you got mobbed by lots of enemies. Also you can you play the game indefinitely if you pick up a boost thing after the times up although you cant fire. Other than that pretty solid :)
Aesthetically fantastic and the sounds were really nice, the mechanics were also really easy to get to grips with. Progression through the game was linear and therefore simple to understand. Although I recon think the game could have benefitted from a more defined end goal.
Graphics and mood was well set. Interesting take on the theme although I did find my self brute forcing solutions to the game. Colour schemes are also very effective at setting the mood.
I agree @rasti and @wxzuir this is a really well rounded and balanced game. The perfect balance of functionality, aesthetics and simpleness. Really fun to play.
Actually a pretty fun game to be honest. Shame the map didn't go up very far. The mechanics were fairly simple to get used to and the aesthetics aren't to bad. Although perhaps each different platform should have a a different rotation start because when they are all verticle it is very had to stay up. Other than that a like the concept. With a little more time this could be a reasonable game :)
Fantastic use of simple, yet entertaining mechanics! Really like the dialogue animations and aesthetics. One critique is that perhaps soundFX could add another dimension but other than that pretty solid game!
Really like the light and happy feel to this game! Simple mechanics and easy to get the hang of. SoundFX and music was well used to increase the overall feel of the game. I like the implementation of the scoreboard as it insentivises playing multiple times :)
Visuals and sound very really good. I liked the whole neon vibes of it and it reminded me of a tron-like thing although i did struggle with the difficulty of the game itself and the Jump+down mechanic. However this is not to say this game does not have potential! Good luck!
Similar to the previous comment the SFX and music worked well. I like the idea of a "Creative block" and is something I definitely faced in the making of my ludum are entry. I also agree with the previous comment about velocity etc.
Perhaps it would be nice to see a little more variation on the breakout theme but overall its a good start!
@samuel-hollywood-summers thanks for the review! Yes I totally agree. Initially I had planned to animated the character and have a few more particle effects but ran out of time. 😂
Visuals are awesome, I really like the vibes you went for. The controls were simple and intuitive. It would have been cool to have some sort of scoreboard system but other than that, fun game!
