Simple mechanic, exploited well througohut each levels progress, of course, it reminds me of the disappearing blocks from the Megman series, which is a great thing to boot!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>For any other people wandering should I bother to install it? You should! I just happily spent 30 minutes playing zoomzone and will probably again tomorrow :)"},{"author_name":"Crushenator","author_uid":"14401","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 12:03pm","epoch":1418126280,"text":"I quite liked this.

I wish the red indicator for WHEN the block was going to land was a bit more clear. This was pretty important for timing when to jump from a block that was about to disappear to one that was going to appear. I think I was relying more on the ticking sound, but wish it could have been both audio and visual together better. I guess the most confusing aspect of the red indicator was that it had multiple layers of red, and while a cool effect, it made it a bit more ambiguous just when it was going to line up. The randomness makes it pretty unpredictable, which eliminates the ability to just beat it by trial and error, which is a good, but then it ends up making it also somewhat random how difficult it will be to beat 20 in a row. My favorite part is the background, with all the colors, and the overall theme or style of the game along with the music. Its pretty challenging, but not frustrating, because all the mistakes I make are avoidable and the controls feel responsive and the character himself jumps and moves well. Another small thing is that the blocks take too long to arrive, leaving me standing around for too long, but maybe that gets faster and faster as the game progresses?"},{"author_name":"SuperDisk","author_uid":"11035","time":"Dec 23, 2014 @ 3:18am","epoch":1419304380,"text":"Cool, man!

Having the next blocks be a brighter red would really have helped, I don't really see the point of having them half transparent.
