It’s easy to get into and hard to stop.
Simple but enjoyable game, cool concept!
Very fun game! I really liked the artwork and the enemy design.
Two small nitpicks:
1. Around 15 loops in I got stuck at the bottom position while the sticky enemy grew to the size of the screen with particles everywhere, killing the framerate and my run, but maybe I did something weird to make that happen :P
2. The burst of spawns every loop is pretty easy to avoid if you wait a second or two, maybe in increase in spawn rate (for a certain time maybe) would increase the difficulty a bit more
Overall really solid game! I enjoyed it a lot! :)
Thank you for your feedback! I'm really happy you like the game even with its flaws.
I only encountered the growing enemy bug after submissions were closed, its now fixed but the update will have to come after the voting period.
I thought about the second point early on but failed to make the mechanic more interesting...also i think it looks pretty cool in the late game lol
anyway, thanks for playing !
I have to agree it is actually really satisfying to see the mass spawn! :P
very good game, i think it should be more known
I would make a life system instead of damage reducing your score, so you can know how much loops you actually made. Pretty fun and gets chaotic later on
Fun idea, sounds would've made the game so much better, but even though, overall, it's really fun and unique!
Sounds are needed here
cool style, like it,
fun thanks you!
Super fun, I love the introduction of new enemy types.
Love the art here, the trails on the projectiles look great and the shadow always facing directly towards the center of the screen rather than in any particular direction is a really fun touch :)
Gameplay is simple but engaging, with the increase in difficulty feeling very nicely paced
Thank you! it feels nice seeing people noticing these little touches that I'm very fond of. I've been trying to make it part of my "visual style" so yeah..thank you <3
It's a gorgeous visual style :) also, this comment got me to look through your other games and Snope is amazing, I'm hooked!
🥰
Very simple game but that simplicity makes it rather fun. The art also compliments the gameplay very well. Just a bit sad that there's no sounds.
i'm sad about it too, I lost a lot of time trying to make my audio work, at last i gave up :(
thanks for playing tho !
I liked its simplicity, almost like a 1D snake game. Feels like a novel minimalist game that could really benefit from some additional game mechanics. It's especially nice how the meteors(?) interact with your "tail" and bounce off of it or shatter into pieces. I could even see it working with two "heads" that you control, with a line between them where you want to catch certain objects but avoid others (but I'm probably getting ahead of myself with all these suggestions).
Glad you enjoyed it! I actually had the idea of the second head thing, but after wrestling with the audio for 6 hours (that i never fixed) i decided to stop for the sake of my sanity lol
I feel you, I noticed an animation glitch about an hour before submitting, never got around to it either ^_^"
Simple and clean !
Would have love even more with sounds and music,
but overall it's really cool !
Cool game. The graphics looks solid. Glad that there were enemy variance so there was some novelty to look for. Even for simple arcade-like games something changing over time/exploration of new stuff is cute.
I got one glitch that the enemy glitched inside the "start of the loop marker" and i couldn't finish the loop without being hit. Probably some "perfect angle bounce" lottery that never happens.
Really fun !
Simplistic, but addictive, and the overall design works super well!
this is unbelievably simple and unbelievably fun. as I was playing I said "if an alien said this was his favourite game I would believe him" great job. fits the theme perfect. didnt get any audio even though i was on windows.
thank you for the kind words and the feedback !
Very creative, nice graphics.
Nice Idea and well executed
Love the idea
Cool! love the artstyle
