Although the graphics could use a bit of work, the mechanic was really unique and fun. Enjoyed the voice acting.

Smart idea, you could do a lot with it if you take it further. Some scoring or feedback throughout the levels would be handy so you could see what your objective is / how you are getting on.

Not totally sure what I was supposed to be doing, but it looks pretty!

The unity web player does not play on linux, and the windows one would not render text in wine. Can you please release a linux binary?

I have a linux port complete, just need to test it before I release it. Will be out as soon as possible!

The story was unnecessary in my opinion and I don't really see the use of the theme. Besides that I had a lot of fun. Good job!

Why do drills love citrus fruit? I may never find out. Nonetheless I had a great time playing this. The mechanic was interesting, the levels well-designed and thought-provoking, with a nice progression curve -- until I got stuck on one level!

Nice use of minimal graphics. I'd have liked the mechanic to be the opposite ('avoid the circles' instead of 'catch the circles'), though the levels ramped well.

Fun puzzle game. I didn't expect to actually get the pineapple but was happy when the theme changed after doing so.

Wow, nice combination of puzzle and reflex elements. Well done!

I like the abstract aliens ;)

Very Simple and nice.
I like the puzzels and the funny dialogues.
But the game need more innovation, maybe the background with some intriguing thing, but good game, and the puzzels is realy great.

nice game.
mirrors change the gameplay when it becomes boring.

Very innovative and fun, also you were smart to use auto generated voices (even though they skipped a few words), because usually if a LDer records their own voice their performance takes me out of things.

I will say it's bold to have a game where you have 3 mechanics, and overall I liked it, the third mechanic was a it of luck based, and so overall the 'orange world' was probably my favorite, but still shows promise for you as a developer with this fun game.

Oo, there's some serious timing involved with this one. Fun :) The little intro sequence was adorable and funny as well.
