Liked the idea. I feel the gold influencers made it pretty easy to get a chain reaction, 98% of the time it’s just down to choosing the right golden one. Would be much harder (and more fun to figure out) if they weren’t there at all and it was still possible to get a full standing ovation.

Nice. Magnets make it pretty hard to advance, but that’s good. Not a fan of the aspect ratio, though, had to scroll up and down to see the entire screen. 

Awesome game. Wished there was some music to accompany the gameplay, but otherwise really cool. Love the art and the gameplay. Pretty damn hard, too!

About 5 minutes, tops, I think, just enough to get through day one, not enough to explore fully.

Oh, tried skip and it worked! I absolutely loved the gameplay mechanic. Trying to stack up damage and keeping everything in balance; of course I managed to knock everything off when I got too ambitious. I love it. Great entry!

This one absolutely wins it for me. I love the style, the sound, the dedication to levels. Absolute gem!

Loved the gameplay and how addictive it becomes once you understand the mechanics! Great interpretation of the theme!

Loved the gameplay and the art.

I love the art and the absolute sadistic MF that is the boss. I couldn’t figure out the breath mechanics, probably died about 30 times before giving up. I love the core idea, though, just wish there were more visual hints when I’m doing something right, and how to deal some actual damage.

Great idea. I like how you have to try multiple times to get to the right solution. Made it on my third run through. Also love the mouse and keyboard support, and the dialogue system even has a skip option. I actually didn’t mind not knowing how many steps I had left, made it more engaging. Great stuff!

Looks like a fun idea, and I love the intro instructions. Didn’t get past the ‘Get down there!’ though (on iPadOS browser) :(

Love the art, especially the expressions the MC makes! Reminds me of Alley Cat from way back in 1983! Seems like it could be a fun game, too bad it’s not finished!

Hi everyone,

I just released a 7-track metroidvania/action/adventure music pack. It features a main/trailer theme, menu, exploration, boss and 2  darker exploration loops, and an outro/credits theme. Should be all the music needed for a small game, a demo, or a vertical slice.

Hope you check it out and find it useful!

That was fast! Thanks, really appreciate it!
