Once I understood I could pick up the dots by touching them with the matching block, and that the objective was to pick up the dot that matched the flashing block, I enjoyed the game more. It's pretty tricky figuring out how to get around the area using the crosshair colors.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>In the end, I lost by having green blink 3 times in a row. I wonder if it's a bug that getting the same color twice in a row makes it so the timer on that block doesn't reset."},{"author_name":"Jimbly","author_uid":"55346","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 7:59pm","epoch":1461009240,"text":"Interesting little game!  A couple times I got stuck where two colors were almost on the same line - I would switch to the first color, move through it, stick a pixel later on the second.  Switch to the second color, try to move, and it would pop me back behind the first.  Eventually I got through though, not sure how =)."},{"author_name":"Blobo","author_uid":"52667","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 8:01pm","epoch":1461009360,"text":"A score system would be nice. other than that, it was a really interesting concept, and a great take on the theme."},{"author_name":"StianTheDark","author_uid":"43174","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 8:01pm","epoch":1461009360,"text":"No Linux version, can't judge."},{"author_name":"LudumAnthony","author_uid":"89892","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 8:02pm","epoch":1461009420,"text":"Adding a score would have been a good choice in order to create a sort of replayability.  The mechanic was very interesting and fun but I might have played longer if I could see a score \/ some sort of progress happening.
