Pretty cool, simple game. I could really see this being a successful mobile game! The graphics are not amazing, but still passable. Although it's interesting that it looks like the game is built in 3d, even though it's a 2d game. Interesting choice.
A quick suggestion. When you build up "charge", it shows a numeric value next to it. Why don't you get points for switching with more charge? Seems like a missed opportunity. Maybe that would make the game too complex, but I think it could be interesting. Of course the game is fine (and addicting!) as it is. Good job!
Also, maybe you could check out and rate my game? :)
I started playing this last night and got addicted to trying to beat the high score haha. The gameplay is great and unique, it was frustrating but got me hooked when I got used to it.
Could definitely see this being a huge mobile game. Artwork is a bit lacking but it's still fine. Main gripe would be that sometimes it's virtually impossible to get past the obstacles with 2 going the same speed on either side.
Thanks for playing it really glad you enjoyed it enough to go for top score! And yeah there's a bit of a bug with the spawners I made didn't have enough time to spend on getting them properly fixed but at least I've got a better idea on how to implement them next time I make something similar
Love the music!
It's from a site called FesliyanStudios! Did this solo and I'm more programming focused so usually get sounds from there cause they're free to use so would defo recommend if you ever need music in a hurry!
This is a very interesting mechanic! The way all these moving parts are meshed together into a one-button game makes for a very thoughtful experience.
I wish there were a submit button for the high scores. I think there is a bit of a bug where high scores aren't being submitted until the games after you've entered a name. I'd like to enter my name and submit the score from the run I just completed so I don't throw away the progress from my first game.
The soundtrack is more fire than the lava cubes moving down the screen.
Glad you enjoyed the game!
And yeah I kinda expected there to be a few bugs with the leaderboard cause I quickly implemented it on the last day, if I can manage to get some decent free time I'll probably get around to looking into/fixing that!
And the music's from FesliyanStudios! Did this solo and I'm a programmer so usually head there for music and sound stuff cause it's free to use so would defo recommend if you ever need music in a hurry. There's plenty of great music to be found there!
