Initially, I couldn't understand the logic, but later It was a ride I would say, you gotta add some tutorial or something so more people will pray it. overall I liked the gameplay. 

Developer

Thanks for your kind comments! A tutorial would definitely help, it's a tad bizarre game :D

I don't know what insane fever dream spawned this game concept, but what's most strange about this game is that once you understand how it works, it actually works, and really well at that. I can easily see this as a successful mobile game. I did have to turn off the music, for my sanity, but I played this game FAR longer than I expected to. Add some achievements/unlocks and put this on the app store!

Developer

Thanks so much for your very kind comments! I'm really happy you liked the game so much. I have no clue of exactly how I got to mash up the elements and come up with something relatively cohesive. I'll consider now improving/expanding the game and porting to mobile!

Nice concept, it took me quite a while to get used to the commands and switching planes, but once i did it was fun to play. I don't know if its a bug or it really does not have a restart option in game, i had to close and open the game again every time i failed.

Developer

Hi and thanks for playing the game! I'm glad you like it. Pressing enter at the game over screen will return you to the main menu. Note that you say so, I think I forgot to place a message specifying this in the game over screen (or the instructions!).

Made it to level 5. Really fun idea! I thing I would have liked it if the first plane was a bit lower to give me more time to think as the animal spawns. The aesthetic is also very cute

Developer

Thanks so much for your comments! Great that you liked it. I think this kind of feedback is super useful.

Fun game and the idea is very clever. Took me a couple of tries to get into the groove but I got to level 6 eventually, it takes quite a bit of concentration though! 

Developer

Thanks for your kind comments and for playing the game! Amazing work, level 6 is really stressful already :D I wonder what your high score is?

Nice! It felt quite hard at the beginning but after getting a grasp of things, it was pretty enjoyable.

Developer

Thanks a lot for playing it :)

Oh clever idea! Poor animals getting shoot at :p.

I didn't understand at the beginning but after the first animal falling I got it, and yeah, again, clever idea to roatet them using other controllers.

I'd use a button to make everything a bit faster because it's a bit too slow (I don't want to imagine how long it'd take to finish the whole level we see in the screen :D).

Well done!

Developer

Hi, thanks for your kind comments!

You can use the DOWN key to make the animal fall faster. The first board is tiny (2x2) just to give you an idea of how it's played. Further levels are much bigger :)

Oh my bad, I didn't think of using that, that seems obvious sorry! Yeah so my only concern is removed :D

There is a lot of content here for 48, very impressive! Not directly rotating the falling animals is a really cool idea. I felt the planes are a smidge too fast. Awsome idea.

Developer

thanks for your kind comments! Great that you liked it. :)
