Aesthetics are excellent. Simple yet appealing.

Audio is well fitting. The music loop is a little too short, but it didn't bother me too much.

You have made one fatal mistake in your design, in my opinion. And that's the addition of the timer restart. The game damn near forces failures and constantly changes the rules on you. That's fine. What's not fine, is that you expect me to restart the game from the beginning only so that I can eventually have another crack at the puzzle I'm actually struggling with, simply because I don't have sufficient time to think it through. I think the timer should have been for another mode, or simply force the level to restart. Certainly not the entire game to game over.

This ruined the experience for me.

The theme was hit intelligently and effectively.

Developer

Thanks for your feedback :) I did found that 50% of people feel good with the timer and other half hate it, so when I get opportunity to work on this game I will just add toggle in options ;)

The movement controller it is really responsive and the graphics get together awesomely with all the particles. It took me a little bit to pass the barrier level, but when I did I was like "omg, of course! haha"

great game, keep the good work!

That was a nice game, the particles and lighting made it perfect!
It was way to short and I can understand why, it was made in 2 weeks

Developer

i couldn't pass the titanic level but i really enjoyed this - smooth mechanics and a great take on the theme. great entry :)

Developer

If you ever want to beat it, try jumping on the ceiling. When you hit it, it enables your jump again

Submitted

thanks, did the trick. but i failed on the next level and having to restart the game each time i lose is too harsh of a penalty for a user with my low level skills.  i enjoyed it enough to play level to level but not a full repeat. 

hopefully someone will upload a play run video since im interested in seeing how it ends.

I will let you know if someone does that :) (If no one will, then I will do speedrun for you :P)

The art style is amazing in this! Really liked it!

Really nice game. I like the graphics and the control of the cube feels pretty tight. Also very original the way you do the menu.

To put some criticism, some stages leave you pretty clueless on what you have to do (yes, the game is suposed to be deceiving, but not opaque), for example in the titanic one there is no way to deduct that touching the ceiling refresh your jump. 


Overall pretty nice for a week of work ^^
