Very fun concept! Definitely needs more colours though. Also give each different colour a different texture to help with colour blindness?
Good game!
I think this could be improved if the different colour blocks had some appreciable difference in their mechanics, such as some needing more hits than others to break. Then there would be more of a strategy to the building gameplay.
I would say your underselling yourself when you say its unfinished. There are probably tons of things you wished you could have added, but there is nothing unfinished from a players perspective. Things such as highscores are nice to have, but not necessary, especially for a game jam game. Great work!
Thanks for the kind words! This was my first solo jam, so I had lots of ideas that I didn't have time for, including a points system. But I will definitely try to polish it after!
Fun and frantic. Future enhancements could be keyboard/controller support, as the mouse clicking is a little too finicky when going fast. Good job!
Thanks for playing! Keyboard/controller support is a great idea, will definitely try to add that after the jam!
I wish I could save my points because I was actually really enjoying it once I understood the concept/gameplay! I would love to play for a highscore and although it was just really a pattern recognition game, you could really build upon the mechanics and make the game more exciting. For a small prototype, it's very fun!
Thanks for playing! A points system would've been ideal, didn't have time, but will try to add it after the jam.
At first I didn't quite understand what was required of the player, but after I understood the goal of the game was to create a line of 5 bricks without any of the same colored blocks touching, it became much more enjoyable! It was frantic trying to race the computer player playing Breakout! A very interesting take on the theme. Hopefully the game can be built upon and explained a little bit more clearly in a post-jam update.
Thanks for trying it out! I regret not making the controls and objectives clearer, so I've added that to the description for now. I will definitely improve the game after the jam!
Great! You've got a winner of a concept here!
I'm not sure, if I am not getting how to place the bricks, or in the submitted stage, the game is just Breakout so far.
Thanks for trying it out! You place blocks with the mouse in the top row. Filling out the row will shift the blocks down. Sorry for not making this clear, I've added this to the description!
