interesting concept. easy to see how it's done. nice work

**Eager Beaver** · 08-18-2008, 10:57 PM

Nothing is happening when I rotate the image and click the mouse. Played for a minute got bored and stopped playing. Only thing happening is that music on/off button interferes with the game play due to mouse clicks.

**BlinkOk** · 08-18-2008, 11:15 PM

are you saying you don't understand how to play it?

**mr_malee** · 08-19-2008, 12:06 AM

that is very cool. Sounds are also nice as well.

**samvillian** · 08-19-2008, 03:18 AM

very cool idea. I got 40 images done with 263450 score... i think thats horrible look at the high scores

Now that's a creative 3D game if I ever saw one. That's really good.

**BlinkOk** · 08-19-2008, 04:11 AM

now that i think about it, designing the mouse control may have been difficult. it must have taken a fair bit of tweaking to get it just right.

That's a pretty cool game, feels a little too easy at times, just move around until it looks small and you know your close

Good fins blink

That is the most original game I've played so far! The music went very well with it. Like the sound effects. Simple but brilliant.

saaaaaaweeettt!!! that's an awesome idea and implementation!

**Sietjp** · 08-19-2008, 11:46 AM

Yep an awsome idea, I was in love as soon as I saw it. The same author made a popular title (Drifts : http://www.repeatwhiletrue.com/drifts/) about 2 years ago.

Excellent tech demo, but it's not a game.
(Mouse too sensitive too).
10/10 on tech
1/10 on gameplay

That doesn't even make any sense. I guess there's always someone to disagree on everything.

**Cortana** · 08-19-2008, 05:38 PM

How is not a game?!?!

**samvillian** · 08-19-2008, 05:44 PM

did you guys solve the puzzle on the main menu screen?

**Son of Bryce** · 08-19-2008, 06:04 PM

It's an interesting idea. Yes, they managed to attach a score to interacting with it. But it doesn't really feel like a game to me.

It's essentially the same thing every round. And as hooligan suggested, after a couple rounds you can figure it out and it presents very little challenge.

If the author perhaps added in some more elements of conflict such as having to avoid enemies that will chase after the mouse cursor and punish you if they catch it -- that would help make it a game.

I was just playing a Galaga arcade machine at a Pizza joint last night. One of those OG space shooter games. It starts off so simple that it's even kind of boring. But it slowly ramps up and before you know it -- suddenly -- *Holy Crap!* This is hard now. You get a sense of tension as you have to scramble to adjust to the new attack patterns.

From what I've played, this game lack any sense of tension. Which makes it more of a tech demo than a game.

It's really fun, but after a bit it's easy to tell that the little blocks represent the front, and it's easy to quickly get it. Pretty awsome, though.

You're joking right?

**Incrue** · 08-20-2008, 05:35 AM

Inspired by that i supose
Could be more challenging if the time was smaller but very cool anyway
