Super fun. My friends and I were competing to get a high score. Blew our minds when the lights changed at 50.

Developer

The lights flashing might be due to the order of the songs that played - the graphics are supposed to flash in time with the beat, but only works well on the quieter song right now. So if you got the two louder songs first (they play at random), maybe the third song coincided with you hitting a score of 50 :) Congratulations by the way, my highest is 42! Thanks for playing!

This is really a master piece  in hyper casual and endless genre and also you have stuck to the theme

Really Really Impressive 

Hope it get released one da

For me all the flying obstacles are black :/ so It's hard to play

What browser/device are you using?

If you could check your browser console for errors and report them here, that would be extremely helpful.

Strangely, I just tried it again. And now it works :D

Developer

Bah browser inconsistencies I guess, or maybe a bug in my loading code that I have yet to find :D I'm glad you got it to work! Thanks for playing!

The realization is interesting, a real relaxation, I enjoyed it :)

Simple and hard but very playable nonetheless. Great music and overall atmosphere. Plus points for the custom engine. Thumbs up!

Please add cursor keys control. It would also be better if starting position is always in the center.

Visually appealing game. I am especially impressed that you have coded your own ECS game engine! Keep working on it and consider making it open source one day.

Developer(+1)

Thank You! Though I have to admit I am standing on the shoulders of giants here, in particular the Unity engine, whose methodology I mostly tried to re-create. It was they that introduced me to the concept of EC(s) and prefabs.

Just played your game, the visuals and audio are pretty clean
Very cool you wrote an engine
Bug: If you leave the browser out of focus, the points keep increasing without the level actually progressing
Good Work!

Developer

Yes, I noticed that too but I ran out of time to fix it, along with mobile controls (which would have allowed this to run on anything).

I will fix this bug (and the rest) and make improvements once the voting period is over - after all the effort I put into making the deadline, and despite Javid saying we're allowed to fix bugs, I'm loathe to spend any more time on it now the deadline has passed :P

I love the color choices + overal look. Found the movement in the game itself a bit choppy. The game would have been even better if that was smooth.

Thanks! Performance isn't great as I literally made the game engine from scratch; its very much a prototype right now!

Edit: Running in Chrome *might* give better performance :)
