I can't stop playing the game, someone help! 

Even tho I finished the game... (yes game has an end!) 

I love puzzle type of games and this just seems to be so fun way to play one!

Not only that I really liked the Timmy person who gives you advice all the time lol! Nice little touch.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Love the game! Pesto is so sad he just can't see his frend. The tumbleweed was mighty rude though. Could be a little more challenging, I like the audio. 8/10!

Developer(+1)

Nice! Great work!

Great game! All the transitions are what impressed me the most. The maze transitions felt pretty high level design/coding, the dialogue transitions and minimal transitions were excellent. Nice sprite work, good music picks the first stage song is hype. The writing won me at "Life has no pause button" XD

If I had to give one nitpick it's that it might've gone on a bit too long. I wonder if you could combine the shrinking parts back to back in succession to speed the end bits up a bit.

Developer

I'm REALLY happy to hear these kind words! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
The speeding up idea could be something I didn't think of. It could turn out to be a really good idea now that I think about it!.
Thanks for your precious feedback and for your time!

I got annoyed by the maze resetting every 15 seconds so i didn’t play very long. The gameplay was solid though and the music was the best part.

Developer(+1)

Sorry to hear that! Thanks for your time!

Submitted(+1)

Great game!! I really enjoyed playing it!

Developer

Thank you so much!!!

Submitted(+1)

great game! loved the random maze mechanic!

Developer

Glad to hear my code was successful hahahaha!

Submitted(+1)

Fun game! The music was rad and I played for a while. Had a lot of fun playing it. I would make it so that you didn't have to press the key to move each but just a constant movement but other than that it was great.

Developer

The constant movement is something a couple people suggested so... I'll definitely implement it next time!!!
Thanks for the kind words and for your time! :D

I had fun playing, after getting to around 80 points I got the point of the game and saw the guy talking on the side, telling me to hold space. Didn't  get the point of holding space.

Still, I had fun, good job on your entry!

Developer(+1)

I think I should have make it more obvious, but from time to time he will minimalize the whole game until the game doesn't exist anymore.
BUT! Glad you still had fun hahahah!

Submitted(+1)

The idea is very cool. I liked how the music blends well with the gameplay.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I hope you enjoyed the adventure through the world of minimalization!

Submitted(+1)

Cool concept, I like the level wall order randomisation. But level 1 feels like level 21 out of 30, its too difficult for being stage 1 imo. When it comes to the graphics I'd either go pixelated graphics or skip pixelation completely. Well done!

Developer

I'm sorry but I didn't quite understand what you said. There are no levels, the maze is generated randomly each 15 seconds.
The maze is just a placeholder for what the real adventure is! Have you gotten past 10 points? :)

Submitted (2 edits)

Yeah I know, I didn't know how to formulate my thought about the difficulty while putting it in scale. Yes, I got past 10 point but its not easy to read the dialogs of the tumbleweed while playing the game at the same time. What does holding space do by the way beside freezing everything in place? and reloading the screen?

Developer

If you keep going, the tumbleweed will come back, and you will witness something else. Again and again, until the end of the game.
Haven't you noticed how the game screenshots look all so minimalistic but the game does not?
Something tells me you haven't even seen the tip of the iceberg hehe! :P

Submitted(+1)

Sorry but I feel more stress than excitement/engagement while playing this game. That's why I believe the beginning stages should be easier, you could also make the tumbleweed appear earlier, like after 5 points in stead of 10. but that's just my personal opinioin.

Developer

Oh sure, this is a different take on it! I think I should have make it shorter too! Thanks for your feedback friend! :D

Changing labyrinth. Fast game. Good job! I really enjoyed playing this! Design is awesome.

Developer

Many many thanks! I really appreciate your feedback pal!
