Great idea and all respect for the implementation in the short time! This two axes game is really challanging!

That was really cool, playing as game in two planes is very challenging, I thoroughly enjoyed it!  I think you need less digits in the high score menu, I dunno, I don't see people getting to level 1000000... Maybe though.  Overall, fun concept, well done and enjoyable!

Great work!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback. We maybe have been too ambitious about the high score :). Great to hear you liked it.

Nice twist! Took a while to realize what I should be doing. Sometimes I accidentally get my mouse outside of the game window though.

Developer

hi randomphantom,

thanks for your feedback!

I know, there is missibg a short simple tutorial; it was planned, but we ran out of time.

Maybe we add one (and some animation, when loosing points and missing exceptions) after the jam.


thanks!

Wow, that gets quite intense after a while. I made it up to level 6 anyway, ta-daa! Fun game, the 2 axis gameplay is much more challenging than one could think.  It certainly makes debugging harder!

Developer

hi, thanks for playing! and for your feedback ofcourse!

we were also surpriced how challenging it is when we tried it for the first time.

It totally exhausted my multitasking abilities at 9AM on a Sunday when my total capacity is about 0.5 tasks. But it's a really fun game! Nicely done!

Developer

Thanks! I am very glad that you like it! :-)
