"USS ThroatPunch", great name! hahah
Named by Captain Max Dickman himself!
Hah, I liked the writing for the game. Interesting mechanic for a game, I wished there was some kind of tutorial though.
Thanks! Given more time I think we would have included a tutorial. I'm glad you enjoyed the writing. Thanks for trying it out!
Great game idea with linking multiple controls together in a malfunction!
The main thing that I think could be improved is giving the player more time to see and react to the malfunction blocks. That way, I would have enough time to plan out what malfunction I want to select (but a short enough time that I have to make a quick decision about which block to pick).
I think this is a great idea that has the potential to lead to some really interesting malfunction combos!
Thanks for playing! I agree with you. I think having the blocks appear/flash for a second or two at the top of the screen before they scroll down would improve things.
very good and original game
Thanks for playing!
