what an interesting take on controls, took a while to figure them out :smile: Fits the 'unstable' theme perfectly, thanks for making this!
UPD: haha, just noticed it was for LD42!

Want to check it out, but links are broken, can you update them? Thanks!
Made it to the top of the leaderboard! Btw, thanks for the leaderboard and linux version, I appreciate that!
Wonderful graphics and incredibly satisfactory controls, my favorite tactic was to bang my head against big blocks and drag them with me away from the black hole. Great game!
Ooooh, VR title! Bookmarked it, I will definitely try and review it in next day or two when i'll get my headset ready! :slight_smile:
@benmcnelly any other VR games from LD49 that you can recommend?
What a nice, solid experience! Liked pretty much everything about this little game, especially graphics, bonus points for size of binaries!

My whole screen is now spider too! Is there some kind of end screen?
Cute little game with fairly weird soundtrack!
Special thanks for making a web game on rust, I'm learning how to do it right now, and will probably peek into the source code a few times :smiley:
That's pretty on point!
What. WHAT? A **whole virtual machine** with some 2049 mind control/clone lore as a game? Now that's really unexpected!
Is that a Niko plush photo I'm looking at?
Thanks for the game. You've done something truly amazing.
Nice visuals, 'trash can' skip is useful! :smile:
Good job, bonus points for Godot!
I've never had so much fun not being able to start a game! Great work with meta, interesting take on graphics :smile:
Great game, very consistent from the sound and graphic design (huge LocoRoco vibes!) to gameplay and controls!
Windows 10 detectes this as virus for some reason and won't let me launch it, and then deletes .exe :cry:
Ping me if you can figure out what's wrong and fix it, or maybe post manual to build it from source, I'll try it!
That "??? me" button that slowly rolls out from behind the corner and ends up being "NOT ME" really did the trick :laughing:
Well done puzzles, great graphics! Could use some soundtrack. Thanks for web version, wonderful game!
Wonderful game, loved the physics and destruction! Solid gameplay loop
I like how the most winning strategy is to do nothing :smile:
Love the minimalist approach! It's simple, and it works!
Also, never before in my entire life i saw "left/right side of your keyboard" as a control scheme :smile:
Good job!
whaaaaat that's so cool! Can't believe it was done in 3 days! Thank you for linux version! Speaking of some actual feedback, second level is running way more smoothly on my low end pc, not sure why, probably because of light sources amount. Also. a blaster that fires blue pellets stops working after the first two shots
It doesn't really matter, I'm amazed
*There was a comment that I wanted to leave for another game, oops*
@mordrick Now that you mention it - haha, yes, there's definitely something to that!
And about my code's cleanliness - I had to rewrite it twice while tuning core gameplay as I quickly got lost in it. The idea of putting all the code into one file is rather romantic, but not very practical :smile:
Too bad I messed this up anyway when I added the "bugs" later, by flooding the whole place with chaotic checks and conditions
@debone
Glad I was able to leave some actually helpful prompts!
> the visuals of the squares reminds me of the After Dark Flying Toasters screensavers, were you going for that?
Not really, but now I want to think that I was :smile:
Woah, I'm genuinely overwhelmed with feedback. What a morning to wake up to!
I didn't think I could accomplish it, but everyone seemed to be able to find an gameplay, graphics or story aspect they liked about it! Thank you all for the comments!
I will try and review your games too! And in the meantime, keep pushing forward, and don't let anything stop you! :wink:
@romfactory Good thinking! I'll add more mechanics and different variations of them if I do part two. By the way, if you stay in the game a little longer, you will see that character actually changes color, as part of the story :slight_smile:
@ucsbdad Had everyone made it to the final screen, it would have been a dream come true :slight_smile: but I don't think that's possible.
Hopefully those who stayed only for half a minute or so had fun too!
@romfactory oh, you are brave to try this game on the touchpad :smile:
I realized too late how challenging it would be to play it on the touchpad, let alone the touchscreens. So if you liked it anyway, then yes, I recommend trying it with the mouse!
@wvagen Yep! The theme is somewhat fairly presented only if you don't leave after the first few attempts :laughing:
@alaah There is definitely something off with the things you mentioned. I just wish you had stayed a little longer to find out what exactly :smile:
Anyway, thanks for trying it and for the review!
Nice visual! Despite the amount of text, it took me a few minutes of walking around to understand the mechanics of the game. There is a small bug that you can do pretty much anything while having dialogue on screen, but that's not critical. Good job!
*Demoralizing moose* reporting in, got it to 2nd place!
It was naive to assume that the game does not get harder with time :smile:
Awesome! Rather bold decision with the vocals, but everything else I definitely liked! Thanks for web version and leaderboards, clever solution with player names!
UPD, made it a bit higher, *Possessed milkfish* is me too!
Great game! It really feels like 'The Witness'.
Playing in browser, WASD doesn't seems to work, but arrow buttons do, so it's fine
The title isn't lying,
that was indeed oddly satisfying!
I want to try it, but could not get it to work. Tried in two browsers, just a gray screen for me. Any ideas why and how to fix?
@peterfiftyfour Chrome and Firefox. I'm not sure what it could be, maybe it's something with my Internet connection. I'll try to fix it if it's on my side, but thanks for making a game anyway!
I like that the tutorial is immediately a game! Thought I was about to read the controls there, instead I immediately understood how it worked :smile:
Sudden changes of playfield caught me off guard, at first I thought I was doing something wrong. Cool game, keep it up!
Is it intended that I can just turn on the lamp twice without finding any light bulb, go to bed and pass the game? :smile:
It's pretty hard, you really can't see much. Definitely scores in mood!
A small and fun drifting simulator :smile:
It was a surprise to learn that the police car is quite functional and there are events like "Truck is coming"
Thanks for the web version! Had my bit of fun for sure!
I can't believe how close every aspect of this game is to an actual experience I'm not proud of :smile:
I would like to try it, but for some reason my browser won't let me download it and says "virus detected" :confused: any idea why and how to fix?
Fun little game! Extra points for c++
No, don't steal my cats. :sweat_smile:
Thanks for the web version! Took me a few seconds to figure out what "alpha1" and "alpha2" supposed to mean :smile:
There is something wonky with colliders when you bump sideways into an obstacle, but aside from that - quite cool platformer!
Could appreciate the higher move speed, but I understand why it was done that way.
Harsh story, good work nevertheless!
hahaha, liked the absurdity of this!
Every little detail here works for the atmosphere!
I survived!
Precisely a realistic scenario with parents patrolling the house all night instead of sleeping :smile:
GJ, pretty authentic game!
Surprisingly addictive! I've yet to build anything that even remotely makes sense, but here's my current high score with... whatever this is!
Great job, wish there was an option to save and somehow modify the ship between launches!

What a calm and soothing experience, really needed it after everything that I played today!
Nice game, thanks!
itch.io says that "The developer has not uploaded a game yet..."
Screenshots looks interesting, waiting to try it!
One of the best I've played so far at this event! Loved it!
Controls can sometimes become excessively clumsy, but that's ok, considering the circumstances.
Now I want the full version with some progression mechanics :smiley:
