A very unique take on the theme, which i like! It has a good atmosphere and sound, but for me I wasnt a big fan of the visual and UI. But overall a good game.

Developer

I'm glad you liked it!

Thanks for the comment. I'm definitely gonna work on the visuals. If you have any ideas for improvements, I'd love to hear it :) 

Submitted

So many positive reviews. Any chance for a Mac or web build? Haha

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

I wish! For some unknown reason I couldn't get the music to sync on mac or webGL unfortunately. Super weird!

Hopefully I can get it work on Android & iOS :) 

You're using mac, I assume?

Submitted

Shoot, cross platform promises seldom go all the way haha. Android and iOS will work just fine :-).

And yep, on a Mac! Admittedly, it does make my game playing more limited… I’m mostly play indies so I’m happy enough with it

Developer(+1)

Yeah, I know what you mean. I was on a mac for 7 years until recently. 
I'll let you know if I get a mac version up and running anytime soon :D 

Submitted

That would be awesome! If not, I’ve given in and will get a PC sometime this year. Still can’t beat the reach of software on it + development is a lot easier on Windows now than it was before. For now, I’ll keep it in my collection :-)

This is wonderful! I love the visuals, simple but striking, and I was curious what you did with the audio because you mentioned you were focused on sounds at another's game page and THIS GAME DID NOT DISAPPOINT. The sounds make it %100 better than it already is. My only suggestion is to change fonts, dafont.com has amazing free fonts (but check if they are %100 free) Everything is so great but the fonts don't fit the wonderful visuals.

Well done, and all that work you put into sounds really paid off! Following you to see what you will make in the future.

Developer(+1)

Wow, such a great and helpful comment!

It's so nice to hear about a positive experience like that. Glad you weren't dissapointed :D 

And super-thanks for the font-tip! I'll definitely try if I can find a good font in there :)

Amazing Game

Submitted

very good job. great idea great, atmosphere, great audio, great gameplay. Thats a pretty round entry. I cant complain in any way. it was fun

Developer

wow, thank you so much! ! !  :) 

Submitted(+1)

I really enjoyed the mechanic of dragging the purple orbs around! The sounds were really nice :D. Only thing as others have said is a better UI. Great job! 

Developer

Thanks for the nice comment! Much appreciated!
I'm very curious about, how I could improve the UI. So, if you don't mind me asking, what in particular do you think needs improvement? :)
I don't have a very good intuition when it comes to visual design, so I'm not sure what "better UI" actually means :D

Submitted(+1)

I really loved this game. The music is great, the lights are mesmerizing, the gameplay is tense! My only advice is polish it and ship it :) Great job!

Developer

Thanks for the positive feedback :) that's awesome to hear! 

Submitted

Ah, I do have an improvement sugestion: This game harder to understand for people with daltonism. I found that the green and yellow orbs are very hard to distinguish. Not that it lowers the score in any way though :)

Submitted(+1)

Like the game, lots of tension  lovely music to set the atmosphere well done

Developer

Thanks a lot :) 

Submitted(+1)

Crazy fun game! The only problem I had was that it wasn't longer!

Developer

Thanks, that's a very inspiring comment! :D

Really great game! I always love new and concepts for control schemes, and this was really spectacular. The way the game play facilitates tension simply through dragging orbs across a screen is great, and I can totally see this being a really good game for mobile. Nice work! 

Developer

I'm so glad you liked it! Maybe I should try and make a mobile version at some point :)

I think this has been the best game I've played for this jam! Really loved the music and the beats from the particle bouncing off the orbits :)

Developer(+1)

thank you very much!!! :)  

Submitted

Best gameplay of the jam once I knew what I was doing, it took me a few reads of the tutorial to understand.

Really fun game to play, loved the music. Well done!

Really good game. I like how the sounds match with the animations and collisions perfectly. It's a really polished game!

Developer

Thanks for the awesome feedback! :)

My wrist hurts - loved the game! Really enjoyed playing it, the musical rhythm felt amazing :D

Developer(+1)

thanks a lot - that's great to hear! :) and I wish your wrist a speedy recovery :D 

Submitted(+1)

Wow! This is good! I suck at it, but it's good! Congratulations! I totally agree with Raimondi, this can be a comercial release!

Keep up the excellent work!

Developer(+1)

Great to hear, the game can be enjoyable even when sucking at it, haha! :D 
Thanks for the nice feedback!

Wow, I was really surprised by this one! I had so much fun that I needed to beat it! Great job!

The music was great, the difficulty was on point (loved that after each level you lowered the difficulty to give a slower pace so that the player could relax a little after beating a level) and  the particles was so satisfying! If you work on the UI and visuals this game could be a full realease easly. Trully ejoyed it, very original idea! 

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the amazing feedback! That means a lot :) 
Super glad to hear, you liked those difficulty-dynamics! That's one of the things that I found hard to get just right, without making it too boring or too brutal :D 

Submitted(+1)

\o/
Yea, It's really hard to get (own experience on my game hahah),  you nailed it! Good job :)

Developer(+1)

yeah, i can imagine that! :D 
thanks a lot :) 

Submitted(+2)

This game is really smooth and juicy. You should definetly continue!

Developer(+1)

I'm glad you think that! thanks! :) 

Submitted(+2)

I liked it! Could have been even better if the orbs would have better indication on which order they spawn in so the player can play through the game without failing constantly. Otherwise, well done!

Developer

glad you liked it :) and thanks for the comment!
