How is your game related to the Theme and Special Object?
Theme: The character's movement is always ongoing, and you can't stop moving and only change directions. The brushes are constantly moving too.
Special Object: (paint)brushes are your enemies, and the main antagonists of the game.

Loved it! You could tell the team was experienced, as the whole game was visibly very polished! Everything about this is great: the music, the graphics, even a leaderboard! I would've liked a bit more power-up variation, but knowing the timespan it's understandable. This looks like one of those games 10-year-old me would gladly play all day on coolmathgames. Good job!
So incredibly fun, the perfect amount of difficulty. Love it!
tysm! :)
Like the cute paint brush and the pallete. Maybe It will be better to make more difference to passable paint and the unpassable.
Glad you liked the art! You're right, I could have been a bit more clear with when paint was dry and when it was wet.
Good idea remember me a little of paint.io & snake, the simple graphics suite well with the game in geneal, the only thing that is disturbed for me is that there is no sound or visual indicator when you die (of course the player disappears but it would have been nice to have a visual or sound effect) Anyway good job you both !
Thank you so much for the feedback! A death sound effect was something I had in mind to add, but as it got closer to the deadline I forgot about. Glad you liked the art though :)
Neat idea! It felt a bit like playing snake though this time the snake follows me :D Regarding visual feedback: it wasn't clear to me when the enemies paint was deadly and when it wasn't anymore.
A well made solid game to spend some time with.
Thanks for the feedback! It's funny, while coding the player's movement for the game, I used the retro snake as inspiration :) About the paint drying, I tried to make the animation of the paint drying as drastic as possible, but sorry if it was still unclear.
Fun game all around! I love the addition of the leaderboard as it brings out my competitive side.
Quite a nice and simple concept.
Awesome game idea, speaking about idea, yea I had similar one. Like create Tron like game with paint as a enemy trail.
Well realization is very good, hope you will continue working on this game, and maybe add some new mechanics, and generally polish.
ty for the feedback! I actually was planning to implement a paint bucket and paintball gun as other enemies, but I didn't get enough time.
Simple graphics that suite the game very well and great use of the theme and special object.
The biggest downside is that the game only ends by bad luck when the blue brush cuts you off and doesn't leave you enough space to outrun the red brush. It would be difficult to make it so that the blue brush "knows" what line to draw to make it challenging but still possible I guess.
Still I had fun grinding the game until I got at least a place on the leaderboards (though I'm not sure how long I can cling on to last place :P)
Great job !
Thanks for the feedback! I understand your concern with the blue brush and I was planning to implement a warning sign to warn you if a blue brush was near (to hopefully make the player experience a little better), but I ran out of time.
Really great concept! Different brushes with different behavior seems very interesting. And graphics is my favorite! Very simple and adorable.
Glad you liked the graphics, I've been trying to improve on my pixel art :)
One of my favorites so far, simple concept, fun gameplay and good music.
Glad you liked it :) your game was fun too!
Good entry ! The red one follows you, the blue one cut the field in half, it's cool to have this because it gives you the chance to create new types of enemy with several behaviours depending on their colour. The music and the menu are very polished
Thank you so much for the feedback! Your game was awesome too!
Cool gameee :3
thanks! :)
