The mechanics were good and also the style of the game, nice work :)

Developer

Thank you for playing Zigoo :)

Submitted

Liked this game! I really enjoyed playing it. I didn't felt that the more further Im getting the levels are getting harder, maybe that's something I would add. Anyway, great work!

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! I will look into it! :)

Cool memory game. I love such games. Hard level hasn't worked for me yet. :D 

Congratulations!

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much :) 

Submitted

cool idea - it's like sped up memory (without the need to memorize I guess - though it helps to get even faster).
there is a certain trippy quality to it when you really start to get in the zone and the colors (great color choice btw) are switching to their negatives again and again.
the only thing I missed a bit was a feeling of progression, as each stage was basically the same as bfore - or do you displace the matching pieces further from each other with each passing level? I didn't feel any change at least. it should get harder with each next level but not only from havong less time.
oh, and 1 little thing: if you play in fullscreen mode the images become all blurry-pixely and that is so sad, as these sharp black and white shapes are looking great!

Developer

I hear you about the progression, as it's not something I added in the game (currently). There is no progression in a particular difficulty but I'm thinking about the best way to add it.
Also, about the blurry shape in full screen mode, it's mostly related to using Sratch and the 480x360 resolution :) It's definitely something I will look into in a future update!
Thank you very much for your detailed and constructive input, I really appreciate!
Btw, great game you did for the jam, it's really impressive!! :)

Submitted

Very nice! Elegant, slick, with intuitive mechanics. Great choice of fitting, mellow music, and satisfying sound effects.

Really nice entry, well done! :)

Developer

Thank you! :)

Submitted

You're very welcome! :)

Submitted

Brilliant idea!!!

Developer

Thank you!! :)

Submitted

Took a few timeouts to understand the objective, but once I did, I really liked how the simplicity of the switching mechanic fed into itself with the larger grids, using the afterimages to speed up and quickly knock out several shapes in succession. Could even be a nice casual mobile game (perhaps with a photosensitivity warning).

Developer

Haven't thought about the photosensitivity but you're right about that! Thank you for trying my game! :)

Submitted

Nice idea for the mechanic and great implementation. The time definetly makes it a little bit tricky and challenging but also fun

Developer

Time is definitely a thing I wish to address, so it can be more manageable! Thank you for your input!

Submitted

nice game idea, the game is fun and addictive. would try out my game and rate it according.

Developer

Thank you! :)

Submitted

Nice idea, I don't think I've seen a game like this before. I had fun!

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

Really funny. Hard to beat. I like this game. Music and sounds fit well. Really nice game. 

Go on and make more like these

Developer

Thank you very much for your support! :)

Submitted

Really fun game! Spent to much time plying it.. Could se myself playing alot of it on mobile if it ever makes it there!

Developer

Mobile would be a good fit I think! Thank you for trying Zigoo :)

Submitted

Very fun and very difficult! This is a really good way to hone your reflexes. I thought the music and sounds fit really well too, great job!

Developer

I'm thinking about adding a "casual" mode (maybe without time limit), difficulty would be less of a problem this way! Thank you for your input and for trying my game!

Submitted

This is a great matchy game. I tried easy at first, then when I tried normal I was expecting just less time - but NO, I see more symbols. By the time it gets to hard it's really challenging. Good job!

Developer

Thank you very much! :)

Submitted

Nicely done though was a little confused to begin with but once I got it twas fun got to level 6 on normal

Developer

Yes, I think the game is starting a bit too fast the very first time we play it! We don't have much time to figure out what to do :) Thank you for your input and for playing Zigoo, I appreciate! 

Submitted

Fun yet addictive and good use of a theme

Developer

Thank you for trying Zigoo! :)

Submitted

Great job on how you implemented the theme. I like how you used different BGM on different difficulties. The game is simple yet fun to play.

Developer

Yeah, I borrowed the idea of different BGM on Tetris I guess! :D Thank you for trying the game!

Submitted

I really did not expect this kind of game can fit the theme! really love your idea for this game so it can fit the theme! it's simple and easy to play too! nice job overall

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

Pretty good game made in scratch, and I liked how u could choose the difficulty 

Developer

Thank you!
