I actually broke the game the first time I played, I got stuck on the two splitter level, and beat it by having some cyan dots stuck in a loop and reflecting them into the cyan shooter (cutting off the magenta shooter). Then because of the way I had placed the tiles the dots didn't have anywhere to go and kept piling up and the game started lagging haha. I beat it properly the 2nd time though. I like how you went to different rooms."},{"author_name":"Starspell","author_uid":"1791","time":"Dec 17, 2015 @ 3:47am","epoch":1450323720,"text":"Thanks for the great comments everyone.

To do this you need to manipulate the coloured projectiles in each room and guide them to the correct buttons within the levels. This will allow the flow of projectiles into the next room and so on, each room powering the next in an ever larger system.\r\n\r\nI unfortunately ran out of time and was unable to put in what would be the biggest draw in this game - the sound. I had intended to have particle effects and animations everywhere in the game each giving off their own tones that you would be able to hear from distance. As you progressed through the game you'd therefore be able to hear what you had accomplished beeping and pinging in the distance. Feel free to add your own sound effects as you play to increase your enjoyment of the game!\r\n\r\nControls:\r\nYour cursor is the green square.\r\nTiles you place will have a read square around them.\r\n\r\nWhilst over an empty space:\r\nLeft Click - Place current tile\r\nRight Click - Rotate current tile\r\nMouse Scroll Wheel - Select a different tile from available tiles\r\n\r\nWhilst over a space that already has a tile placed by you within it:\r\nLeft Click, Hold, Drag and Release - Move tile\r\nRight Click - Remove tile back to available tiles\r\n\r\nAt Any Time:\r\nHold Spacebar - Zoom out to see all levels. Levels each have their own colour.\r\n\r\nTheme Usage:\r\nGrowing - The ever expanding effects and play area. Each room leading on to the next and creating something larger as a result.\r\nTwo Buttons Controls - Originally every room or level was going to have exactly to buttons that you would have to control to move onwards in the game. Obviously I didn't follow this idea through. This was due to making the design of the rooms more interesting.\r\n\r\nNOTE: There currently isn't a way to reset the game or levels. If you get stuck or encounter a bug you may need to just play the game again.","title":"Resonance"}
