The voice input control was very interesting. But I believe it was made more interesting by the fact the people in my discord had no clue why I was yelling. 

Developer

Yeah I probably should’ve popped in a warning to let people know you’re not in distress before playing :D Thanks for playing.

Very original using the microphone in gameplay. The game is simple, but very addictive, makes you want to get the best score.

Developer

Thanks for playing. I was thinking about adding in a feature where the character would shoot ray that destroys obstacles when you scream into the microphone but ran out of time to do it properly so just scrapped it. You can see effect I had in mind for the ray in screenshots of the game as I forgot to take it out before taking those :)

Dude, it's 10:30pm and I'm screaming into my computer while people around me are trying to sleep :D

So far you take the crown for originality of all the games I've tried so far. My neighbors who are trying to sleep on the other hand hate you (or rather, me  ;) )

Developer

Yeah sorry about that I probably should’ve included a warning to let people close to you know that you’re not in danger before you play :D

Thanks for the compliments glad you liked it.

Awesome usage of the microphone :D

I cheated a bit and turned the sensitivity of my audio interface all the way up :P

Developer

That’s not cheating that’s just clever way to use your hardware :) Thanks for playing.

Really tight controls! Felt amazing to play, i wasn't able to test the microphone feature (there's people all around me) but honestly didn't feel like I needed brakes haha, it was a bit hard to see some of the objects, so you could have a look into some different colour palettes if you want, still super fun, really great job!

My high score was 60 btw :)

Developer

Yeah the objects have pretty random color gradients (colors change depending on microphone input) and I added them pretty hastily so some of them are definitely not popping enough from the background.

I too noticed in my final play testing session that it’s fairly easy to survive without braking down but didn’t have enough time to balance it out so just had to roll with it.

Thanks for playing and give it a shot with microphone if you get a chance just to “enjoy” the full experience :D
