I liked the game but i'm stuck in the violet part. The cube turns around because its far from its family so i can't run to the check point.

The artstyle is cool, but maybe you could reduce the bloom effect ? Nice game !

@owinmowe Just click on the father (or tap 1 on your keyboard), and move the father to the checkpoint :D Children will follow.

I like the glowing effects. I was about to rate the game's fun lower because I didn't understand how it worked until I read the comments. And then I did understand, but I was never good at Meepo.

Interesting game, but I also got stuck in the violet part. Speedboost didn't work. My violet cube kept turning around and going back. Good music and artstyle.

@merlinnsound Thanks you! And it's not meant that you walk with the child alone, you should walk as a family or with the father (children will follow :D)

I liked the graphics and concept, and it was fun to play. But at the level the red orbs are falling from above, it started spawn killing me.

@jelfe Thanks! And yes that's the bossfight, the spawntrap is of course a bug, sorry.. But if you teleport instantly when spawning (Tap 3 + S) you can dodge the attacks :D

Great visual effect! Catch me at first glimps! I'm really wondering how you get this kind of effect in unity? I'm guessing emission material with blooming post-processing?

@zyllen Thank you! And well guessed^^, just emission material and a lot of bloom effect :D

You did a lot of things well done, I'm not a fan of the bloom effect though, a little bit too much for me. I wish could select my cube with a rect selection tool.

Keep it up, you did good

@miracl Thank you! Yeah selecting with the mouse is really hard, you can talso use 1,2,3,4

I feel like taking the scatter on the bloom down by about half would make it much more visually appealing. I like the neon bloom effect, but it feels a little blown out.
