Cool idea and amazing execution, really a great job!
I absolutely love the visuals, they are simple yet so immersive: the use of a desktop as a frame for the game is brilliant and really supports the idea that you’re helping an Ai break through a bunch of firewalls. The music is pleasing and uplifting, fitting the tone of the game so well: that Ai seems like a really nice pal, might wanna go out for a beer with it! :)
Gameplay-wise the game is solid and pretty, though a little difficult to pick up because of the small window you have to press each series of commands: it feels so so good when you get it right but can feel frustrating when you were a little bit off, almost feeling like your input wasn’t registred. As a matter of fact I only managed to get 9 as a highscore, rhythm games are definitely not my strength. ^-^’
The only thing I’ll say is that having red as the color for the first light telling you you got the input right is a bit misleading, since I first interpreted it as if I was doing something wrong instead: not a big deal, but definitely steepens up the learning curve a little bit more.
Overall a really nice entry, really fun to play: congratulations!
Thank you for playing and for the amazing feedback! I plan to update the game after the jam. For sure, I'll make the timing a little easier to get and to understand! About the red light, I totally get what you mean. I did it to keep the color palette on the desktop screen the smallest as possible. First, I tried to use the same light blue for all lights, but it was hard to see. So someone suggested to use RGB colors, and it worked nice. I'll explain the mechanic on the tutorial then! Again, thank you for the great feedback ^^
Love how it feels like a game within a game, super cute art and way to stick to a theme! Great submission!
Thank you so much for playing! I'm really happy you enjoyed it ^^
It is a neat game. The visuals are cute, but the controls are oddly unresponsive.
Thanks for playing! You gotta wait until the AI is touching the wall and then press the sequence as fast as you can xD
Makes sense
fun game, but the inputs were a little hard to get them right
Thank you for playing! I'll add another indication for the timing after the jam ^^
Nice game! I loved the visuals and the game is fun!
Thank you for playing! I'm really glad you enjoyed it ^^
Really simple and creative concept but i had strong issues with the game getting no input, still nice game!
Thank you for playing! The game only gets input if you are touching the wall. I'll add an indication after the jam ^^
Hahaha no worries ^^ Mine is 82 (I made the game, after all) xD
great :)
Thank you so much ^^
The game was very fun! There was some issues with the game getting input. Nice job!
Thank you for playing! I'm glad you had fun! After the jam I'll update it and show the timing more clearly ^^
hard but really fun ! good job !
Thank you for playing! I'm glad you had fun with it ^^
It's pretty tricky to get the timing right but I still liked it.
Try mine too if you like: https://itch.io/jam/wowie-jam-4/rate/1663718
Thank you for playing! I'll definitely adjust the timing after the jam ^^
I can't play your game... My computer doesn't let me :/
My highest score is 2. I tried many times but I failed. Game is fun. Liked the music and game. Nice!
Thank you so much for playing! The trick is to get really close to the wall, basically when the AI is touching it, then press the buttons as fast as you can xD
Sometimes my input wasn't registered. Nice endless game nonetheless.
Thank you for playing! The timing seems to be a bit hard to get right :') I'll probably ajust it after the jam ^^
Took me a while to understand when the input window was, but once I did it was fun! Difficult, but exciting when I finally got it right. Good job!
Thank you so much for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'll add some other timing indication after the jam ends ^^
Bit difficult for me, but cool game nonetheless!
Well done :D
Thank you so much! The timing seems to be hard to get right... I'll work on that after the jam ends ^^
Cool game! The timing is definitely very hard, but it does make actually getting through a wall much more satisfying.
Thank you for playing! Glad you liked it ^^
As everyone said, you need to remove timer. Besides that I really enjoyed while playing it. You always want to play one more round. My highscore is 7 and after a countless tries I can't even pass 1 now :D
Musics and graphics are really cute. Gamedesign is 5/5 on topic. Graphics are really good and little details like potted cactus and USB flash makes the atmoshphere a lot of better. Good job!
Thank you so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed the art ^^
About the timing, I'll add something to make it better after the jam ends! But you just gotta wait until you are touching the wall xD
Very simple game; although I couldn't quite tell what the timing was and it took me very long to figure out.
Thank you for playing and for the feedback! I'll probably ajust the timing after the jam is over ^^
That's some good simple fun! Love the visual style and colours, and the audio fits perfectly. Gameplay-wise, the timing is a bit unclear so I just ended up mashing the buttons in order and praying... Could be a great rhythm/combo game with some refining!
Thank you for playing and for the feedback! I'll probably ajust the timing or add some other indication of when to press the button when the jam ends ^^
Maybe a gauge that fills up and you want to hit it at the right point? It's the classic rhythm game tactic but I reckon it could also feel good and code-cracky in this context :)
Good call! Thank you ^^
The game was simple and sweet, liked the break the firewall mechanics . The difficulty curve wasnt much, maybe you could consider steadily increasing the speed of the game. But good work , enjoyed playing it !
Thank you very much for playing it and for the feedback! If I decide to update the game, I'll definitely follow your tip ^^
