I got up to level 8 before giving up. A big part of this is that you have to replay the previous level before you get another shot at the new one, which is completely unnecessary, and only serves to alienate the player in the end.\rApart from that, though, it really is a neat idea. I see plenty of potential in it, all you need to do is some refinement.\rI really like the graphical style, too.\rOverall, well done!"},{"author_name":"M2tias","author_uid":"40135","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 6:48am","epoch":1460961780,"text":"I like the game, but I can't see how you can get past the 6th level...\rGreat graphics!"},{"author_name":"Wan","author_uid":"9172","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 7:00am","epoch":1460962500,"text":"Haha that's the first game I've ever seen where I get punished by having to replay the previous level! I reached level 6 twice but went back to 4 each time.\r\rHonestly this "go back and train on easier levels" thing could have been interesting if used carefully, but here it's game breaking: usually in puzzle games the idea is that you take your time to figure out what's going on, but here every time we reach a new puzzle, we only have 2 seconds to analyze it. \r\r2 seconds is very small for a puzzle where literally anything could happen, and especially for level 5 when even losing 1 second before acting will make you lose. Not mentioning that without some training, 2 seconds is not even enough to play, say level 5 right after you lost level 6.\r\rToo bad because the art style is awesome and the game started pretty well! I would love to play a post-compo version where this issue is fixed.\r\rFor your next game I suggest having a friend play through it to see this can of issues in advance!\r\rCongrats to Halleflux who reached level 8 btw, that must have required quite some nerve and patience ;)"},{"author_name":"hijomo","author_uid":"57468","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 7:05am","epoch":1460962800,"text":"this is a unique idea.
