In what way does your game fit the theme?
Chaos takes over the game board, so the user has to employ strategy in order to make sure the desired colour exists above a certain percentage at the end of each level.

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
All the code is written by myself, and all the assets are made from scratch, except for that there is included some previously existing audio files.

Cool and intrusting idea, I liked it. It contains some bugs and I was confused with the main menu, though. But the originality is, as I said, very cool. I remember reading some book about the eternal fight between Order and Chaos and this fits pretty well. Good luck with your further projects and see you on the flipside,

Very happy that you like it kind person. The main menu is kind off a level on its own :)

The battle between order and chaos is indeed what I was going for, Ill see you when I see you, cheers!

Chaos in my brain now, but thats hitting the them perfectly. Amazing different idea.

Developer

goooood :)

Submitted

pretty unique to me, It lags a little bit in some lvls, but it's a nice concept and fun to play game

Developer

Unique is a good thing I think ;)

The laggyness is duly noted, and im glad you liked to play it

I really liked this game! It's a great take on the theme and creates cool visuals in the process. Sound was good, although it might be nice to have a different win and loss sound for end of round. I liked that the last level had its own track that built on the end-of-round sound though. Main issue I ran into was serious lag in later levels. A more minor thing is restart doesnt work, I get a black screen on attempted restart. But that's not really a problem considering you can escape back to the menu then restart the level from there.

Developer

Im really happy that you like the game :)

A different theme for win and loss was desired but I messed up the audio file for the win. I will definitely take the lag into account in further games, as I've heard some other people about it. Restart button indeed is broken and I included a Note in the page but I wouldnt read the page either so ye.  Glad you shared your experience :)

Very nice

The visuals are really crazy. Indeed a lot of chaos you have created! Cool concept and liked playing it!

Developer

im very happy that you liked playing my game :)

Visuals are quite stunning but can hurt your eyes if you are looking at it for too long. I would recommend slowing down the pattern effect. The idea is very unique!

Developer

Im very glad you like the unique idea, and as for the hurt you are expressing, dont worry, that is your eyes trying to adjust to the movement that is constant. You might have some residual movement when the pattern stops but that really cant hurt your eyes.

Submitted

Interesting design. I wasn't quite sure what I was doing as when I colored over stuff sometimes it would stay that way and sometimes the other colors would bleed through. Maybe that was part of the chaos? Regardless I was able to win most of the rounds so I must have been doing something right! Nice challenge.

Developer

Im glad you liked the challenge :)
And yes you are exactly right, you are fighting agains chaos which adds colours attempting to stop you from achieving the goal.

Submitted

this is a really interesting idea & concept, but it's kinda buggy and hard to look at for a long period of time. Super laggy makes it hard to play too. but it's a really creative take on the theme!

I'd appreciate it if you could play/rate my game as well! :)

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, and Im glad you like the idea. Can you explain how its buggy for you?
