After learning how to play the game I enjoyed the mirror idea. I would suggest putting a tutorial in the game for first-time user (the first time I played I went right into a block) and to not have the same block spawn twice in a row. A few times per game I can sit back as blocks pass by on the other side of the screen. Also I had a problem in 2 of my times playing that made it impossible to progress (screenshot posted below)
Overall, I had a fun and relaxing time playing this game. Once that gamebreaking problem is solved I could see this being a popular game in the google play store.
Good job!
Thank you for your feedback... we know about the game breaking bug which is caused due to the random generation algorithm. We are working on a better algorithm that might solve the problem. We are happy to know that you like our game and the concept.. :)
I had some problems with the game. it took some time to figure out the game. some kind of tutorial could've been good. And sometimes blocks completely blocked me that was a little bit annoying at high scores. But it was fun. interesting idea to play with. Mirror idea is a good one. I'll not consider the problems I've had while playing the game but I would advice completely blocking part should be fixed. Edit : I tried one more time to screenshot it but it didn't happen(or I lost before it happens) maybe its was one time bug.
Thank you for liking our game..we know about the problem where sometimes the obstacles completely block the player, which is caused because of some flaws in the random generation algorithm. We are working on a better algorithm so the bug doesn't occur anymore. A tutorial level we thought of adding but didn't got the time as the game jam was close to ending but we will add it in future.
I completely understand you. In another jam, me and my friend had only time to do either tutorial or fianl boss.We decided to cut out the tutorial . Most people didn't even able to finish the game to see the final boss. Tutorial is really important. Even a simplest one. We learned that the hard way. Sorry I'm acting like a teacher but I'm just trying to give some advice one developer to another. :)
We definitely understand you. We will try our best to improve the game.. :)
Brilliant idea loved i, Although it would look sick with particles and such
Thank you for your appreciation...we will definite look onto creating some particle effects and animations.. :)
