A lot of looping for sure and really like the movement/game mechanic. Great job.
I really enjoyed the game and its concept! The only thing I would change is the difficulty but all in all, Well Done!
AMAZINF
I liked this a lot - a really clever take on the theme! The color switching mechanic > combo was great, and I feel like there's a lot of potential here for further twists on the mechanics! Great stuff!
That's a really clever mechanic and it was fun to play. The sound effects really help make it feel satisfying to smash all those asteroids and you had just enough variation to keep it interesting without being overwhelming. Great game!
I really like this! It's a fun mechanic and you've made it feel very satisfying to destroy the asteroids with the vfx and sfx.
Agree with other comments that changing the loop direction is an interesting direction to explore and could open up the level design space further!
Most original mechanic I've seen so far! I found it satisfying getting into the rhythm of switching orbs to move around and get combos! Super cool idea!
Clever combo fighting/movement mechanic. It's fun and challenging, and I like how I could take my time trying to get every move right.
Nice one!
Love this game! Curious if this game was at all inspired by A Dance of Fire and Ice. Nonetheless, the interpretation of the theme was very clever in my opinion and the gameplay is overall very well designed and balanced and this has a lot of potential for other interesting levels using all of the mechanics in ways that are unconventional (for example hitting the border changes your direction and I wonder if that could be incorporated into a level in any way). I feel like the. It was very satisfying to try to beat my score as I was going through the levels.
Great job overall!
It actually was! I've never played it before but I've seen gameplay of it so we thought it'd be cool to use a similar looping mechanic outside of the rhythm game genre. There could definitely be some cool designs by intentionally switching directions with the border, so we'll take that into consideration. Glad you enjoyed it!
Oh fr
Love the concept! The controls felt good and the idea was pretty cool. Nice sound effect and visuals. I wish there was a way to change orbit direction since that was a bit confusing at times. A good challenge and fun game! Good job!
Good idea, I would play this on Steam!! The main thing is to make cool achievements for it!
Thanks for the kind words!
It was good, altho not my type of game, as it was pretty annoying to get hit into wall since i had to wait so long and i hit the wall like ALOT. XD
Yeah might remove the stun when you hit the border but also wanted that extra layer of challenge. Definitely not for everyone, but thanks for playing!
I like this, cool and original idea .... took a bit of time to get the hang of it but feels satisfying when i got it right. Artworks fits the game well, and i liked the tune.
A well-made, interesting and engaging game. Well done :)
It's very satisfying to play
Had fun playing it!
Not sure I totally understood the game mechanics but also I suck at games. Had fun anyways though!
very nice, got a highscore of 1412!
the controls are easy enough to learn, but very hand to master if you want to be fast.
Bravo! Such a fun and complete game, you guys nailed it. High score 1890 :)
Amazing game! Its really satisfying :) It would be great to play it as mobile game
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed!
True, it's more satisfying tapping on mobile, even though I can't access any other controls aside from speeding. (;-;)
