This game had a brilliant concept, I really enjoyed it and felt great satisfaction with each completed area. I think the level being in tune with the audio was a really nice touch too and I like how you have to shout to exit the game at the end.
This is super cool! I love the idea of using an unconventional control scheme like this. My suggestion would be to make it more clear what different color speakers do. I think the marble had to be touching red ones for them to work? And green ones could be held on with constant sound? Not sure about the blue ones, though.
Keep up the good work! =)
Thank you! Blue is just a burst of sound, like snapping your fingers, red is controlled by a beat which you switch on and green is constant sound like you said!
fun and original game, definitely out of control. I felt like there was a delay.
Thank you! yeah the blue speaker doesn't activate until your voice goes back down, so if you keep talking there'll be a delay, which I will remove in the post jam version!
It was pretty funny yelling at my pc to get this marble to move around. The program worked suprisingly well, though there is around 1 second delay. I also couldn't progress through the part pictured below. The bottom speaker activated, but the one on the side didn't. So, it was impossible to progress any further.
The side speaker is activated by controlling the marble that was on the right to hit the switch. Unfortunately, I found out that on machines that run the game on low FPS the marble on the right sometimes phases outside the slope. Will be fixed once uploads are unlocked though. Thank you for playing and I hope you liked the mechanic! :D
Yeah this same thing happened with me. I restarted the game and I could see the ball, and I watched it shoot straight through the right wall.
This concept was hilarious and I could absolutely see this being a rage/party game of sorts in the future. Amazing work :D.
Very nice concept! I was curious if I would see some weird type of controls, and your game is very unique on that part! Good job!
