But I think the game is great. I really like your interpretation of the theme and it feels good to make the electron swoop around."},{"author_name":"Figglewatts","author_uid":"18833","time":"Dec 8, 2014 @ 4:18pm","epoch":1418055180,"text":"I've corrected the typo now.

Good game all together~"},{"author_name":"Madball","author_uid":"8370","time":"Dec 8, 2014 @ 5:08pm","epoch":1418058180,"text":"The audio is perfect!\rI think the second level is actually the hardest one, mainly because of vertical walls, maybe because I wasn't used to the game yet. At first I was a bit frustrated by it, but after I completed it I completed the whole game and was like "That's all?"\rControls are complicated. All those magnetic fields changing your direction all of sudden, and spacebar affecting your movement in a strange way both when pressed and when released. It is difficult to learn, but you can make many original levels with it, so I would like to see a post-compo. It would make a great high-difficulty game!\rAnd OMG the theme! The theme! That's brilliant!"},{"author_name":"SpecialTrooper","author_uid":"42361","time":"Dec 8, 2014 @ 5:34pm","epoch":1418059740,"text":"So hard!!! :-(\rBut I love the concept the audio and the graphics - great job!"},{"author_name":"Homletmoo","author_uid":"8408","time":"Dec 8, 2014 @ 8:03pm","epoch":1418068680,"text":"It's like a fun version of Flappy Bird!"},{"author_name":"Empyrealhell","author_uid":"26650","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 6:35am","epoch":1418106600,"text":"I really wish you had added arrow key support for that. I tried to play it, but with a non-qwerty keyboard, level 2 just wasn't possible. It looks like it could make for some really interesting levels though, and the graphics are really nice. It also helped out a ton once I realized that the lines show you the exact trajectory you will travel if you change to that direction."},{"author_name":"Fnkee","author_uid":"22198","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 11:26pm","epoch":1418167260,"text":"Mind was blown. This must be the most unique twist of the theme I've seen so far during the season. The game rocks, and I really wished for there to be more stages! Really addicting.

I think the mapping of the controls just made it very awkward. holding and pressing buttons at the same time is very hard. Interesting concept though!

Level 3 was a breeze, and Level 4 was hard but not Level 2 hard.\r\rAlso I know you said you fixed the typo but the version I downloaded still says "W and D". I wonder if, co-incidentally, space+D might be a better choice of control than space+S. For consistency.\r\rGreat job all around!"}],"images":["ld31\/18833-5766269d1906a4605dbc047b1166b788.jpg","ld31\/18833-e0ecbf773ccb3676bb30199f771e5b21.jpg","ld31\/18833-8a949c53b2ce83c887c30e10fe8f5eb0.jpg","ld31\/18833-980665b007dcf2bd760ec5ab5fe05013.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.mediafire.com\/download\/uoqrdffn2shpf0f\/CathodeRay.zip","text":"All Platforms"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.mediafire.com\/download\/lcwmmdh6y40xges\/CathodeRay-Source.zip","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"14924","g_author":"18833","g_event":"LD31","g_eventkey":"26","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"14954","g_title":"Cathode Ray","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"204","g_commentcount":"19","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/407933\/18833-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/407933\/18833-shot1.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/407933\/18833-shot2.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/407933\/18833-shot3.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Cathode Ray is a game about a CRT screen.\r\nMore specifically, it's about a single electron inside the cathode ray tube of the screen on it's epic quest to display the words \"ENTIRE GAME\" on a single screen.\r\n\r\nTo play the game you simply alter a magnetic field to change the electron's trajectory.\r\n\r\nWARNING: Game may not be physically accurate (but I did use all the right words!).\r\n","title":"Cathode Ray"}
