Simon says with some great game feel and visuals. A bit repetitive but that can be forgiven because it is so nice to look at.

Developer

Thank you - I just started to create some graphics so its nice to read such a comment :)

Submitted

lmao at 11+ it gets a little impossible, but besides that, it is a neat little game. I feel like it could benefit from another layer of mechanics as it is kinda just rinse and repeat. I enjoyed the fact that the game changed from play through to play through.

Developer

Yeah at the beginning its sooo slooooow and later it's impossible to play because speed mechanism is not finished. Thank for playing.

Submitted

Hah! I am amazed. This is "Simon says", yet it felt fun to play. And I am not even a child! Great visuals and execution. This really looks like something on an old console. Great job of turning something so simple into something so enjoyable!

Developer

Thank you - there is already an idea to turn it to something else :)

Submitted

I scored 11 and the 12 was literally impossible xD Were the 4 keys almost at the same time


But an awesome Pico8 game :3 Very well done!

I was wondering if somebody will have a patience to try it out a bit longer ;)  But it should be worked on. And like Xanderwood pointed out, and I agree, it should have some story and i think i know what it will be :)

Submitted

I wanted to try everything every game have to offer :3 

Yes, it could be with more content or variation, but it´s a very solid game 

Would you try my game?

Developer(+1)

Your game was one of that i would love to play and I've seen it but I have only mac so I can play only mac versions or html5

Submitted

I think that i can export to Mac, but i can't test it 

Can you help me to test it?

Developer

No problem.

Submitted

Great job, i really like PICO-8 games, should try it out some time :)

Developer

Thanks. It was cool experience but i think a lot of dev-time took me learning the system :) But as experiment i recomend that :)

Submitted

Short, simple, sweet! Great job :)

Developer

Thank you. And it's not short - it's infinite ;)

Developer

Sooooo yeah I know its a little bit too slow - the time between sounds are 2s but every turn there is speed up by 0.1s - and I just know at work thought of how this could be changed :) so I think it will be fixed after ratings. Thanks all of you for trying this out :)

Submitted

Nice, simple simon says game. It’s a bit too slow, though, you could probably speed it up as much as 5x.

Developer(+1)

Thanks - will work on that :)

Submitted

Basically remember the sequence and repeat. Not bad at all, very basic and a little slow but well polished. I would like to see a little more to it in order to hold my attention. Perhaps you can customise different instrument sounds for the keys or the concept could be auditioning for a band and you can choose your instrument. For example if you choose to be the drummer you get just purcussion. then you have to complete sequences to pass auditions etc.... I don't know, just thinking out load :)


well done.

Developer(+1)

oh thats a cool concept :)

Submitted

Nice game! Like others have said though the pacing is a bit too slow.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing. And I totally agree.

Submitted

Other than the game bein a lil slow, you did great! good job :)

Developer

Thanks :)

Simple but effective with nice presentation. I couldnt enjoy it though because of the pacing. It is insanely slow and keeps repeating the same combination many times. I missed at the 6 or 7th turn and raged quitted ;p


If the pacing was better I could have seen myself playing a bit longer. Interesting idea for a time killer on smartphone i think

Developer

I think thats a good idea and I see it on mobile phone someday. Thanks for playing :)

Ey king, you did great.

Developer
