That is too slow, and, at the same tame, it is complicated to dodge the circle. A better introducing would have been nice also, but that is not the more important. I like this kind of graphism, but you should make all the things useless to see in black, or something like that. I think it could be better. It lacks music too.\n\nAnd potato !\n\nThat is a great job you did here though, keep coding :)","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"blobo","author_uid":"1008715","time":"2017-12-08T22:02:10Z","epoch":1512770530,"modified":1512770530,"text":"The auto-moving pieces were a little awkward at first, especially with the camera getting obscured by blocks, but the growing and shrinking mechanic was very well done!

Simple premise, simple game.  Games like this where controls are explained in process of playing are usually very successful, and I think this one was too.\n\nIt would have been better if in the going straight forward area with regular controls, the pieces you pass become translucent, so we know which way to go, but other than that, no real complaints!\n\nThere are a lot of ways this can be improved.  more levels, timers, color customization, powerups, different things to avoid, things to collect, etc.  But the basic idea of the game is there.  Well-played. :)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"JossComposer","author_uid":"1067645","time":"2017-12-10T16:29:24Z","epoch":1512923364,"modified":1512923364,"text":"Hey !

Found it pretty original and engaging! Coins were a bit a pain in the ass though, found they weren't as interesting as other obstacles since avoiding them was just plain 2D platforming gameplay. The other part was more fun and original :) As said before, transparent obstacles once the camera got closer would have made some bits easier, but for a LDJam game it's really nice.
