What a fantastic game! Who knew you could get so much atmosphere out of such a simple premise? I definitely recommend playing with headphones on. The soundscape reminds me of riding down a steep hill on a bicycle with the wind in my face. Great job!

Really nice game, very cool fractal-like mechanic, really feeling you are falling. I like how you quickly discover what to do. I like also that it is so simple to play. Nice Idea on the theme!
Very solid entry!

Amazing! i really liked the concept and i think reflects the theme perfectly!

Brilliant, I love all about it.

This is a perfect jam game. Does exactly what it is supposed to, simple and polished and super cool. The first time I was confused as to what to do, but after you lose the first time you get it. Then it just gets fun.

Mouse only was a good idea. This is very well done!

Great game, but at first I did not know what to do.

brilliant game. the way the title screen is incorporated into the game, *chefs kiss* sound design really enhances it. It was nice that you kept the sounds simple, it really matches the whole package. sense of speed is fantastic. The only criticism I can think of is that the game gets really difficult really fast between the 30 and 40k area. But I was able to come up with a strategy to improve a little from that point, which is what you want in a game obviously. really nice work.

Brilliant idea!

Wow. It took me longer than I care to admit to figure out what was going on, but when I did I couldn't stop playing. Really neat and strangely atmospheric little arcade game.

I would love to see download to play offline if possible.

Awesome entry!

I love this, so trippy! Awesome job, very innovative game

Nice, really enjoyed the "vibe". Simple but very cool and I enjoyed the technical explanation in your post too.

Wow! This is such a unique concept, and the minimalist audio and graphics work absolutely perfectly!

Fantastic game. Great work executing a simple concept so well!

Amazing concept and execution ! So simple but one of the best I've played !

Such a great idea, Well done and fun to play.

This is super cool and innovative. Well done!

I liked it a lot! It gets intense real fast.

So well executed ! Congratulations

GREAT JOB, KEEPS IT UP

very simple but really really interesting and original. i wish there were more abstract games like this, i enjoyed it. i didn't get it at first, but heheh, fun anyway when i got the hang of it!!

So simple yet so addictive! I love it!

First game I've played this compo that really made me realize all the different ways the theme could have been taken and I've certainly played with this one the most. Really creative take, and the sound and visuals work so well together.

So visceral for something so simple. Great job!

Oh my goodness this is genius!! At first I didn't get it but after like, 10 seconds I was in love with the idea, its brilliant! Absolutely incredible on every front, the presentation, the idea, the execution, its so simple and yet so well done!

Brilliant bite size game. It's great to see jammer's use the jam to explore really clever concepts like that.

PERFECT!

So cool! What an awesome idea, so simple yet so fun. Fantastic entry

Just wauw!

perfect Ludum dare entry!
Interesting take on the theme, fun simple game mechanics, great atmosphere.

OVerall amazing, well done!

Realy simple concept but very innovant and well done !
So a good idea for ludum dare ;)

This game was super unsettling in an amazing way. Really, really cool

Best game I've seen yet in LD48!! Super original mechanic. Hoorah for true originality! :) I wonder how it can be improved? Perhaps the line qualities change over time? Or you can modulate the difficulty by directing the line over powerups? Really great stuff. Rating you super high!

Wooooah. Simple and original in the best way. Had a lot of fun just messing around with the different letters at the beginning and trying to develop a sort of strategy to survive. Was able to wrack up over 500k+ points after discovering a method lol. Very cool.

This is awesome. Super simple concept, but the presentation and specially the sound design, is top notch, this is a great example of a perfect jam game, "straight" to the point and unique. Congratulations!

vibe :v:

I started this game without seeing the control instructions and very much afraid that something would go wrong. But I immediately figured out how to play and I absolutely love it! Very simple mechanics, but I have not seen this before and it was really interesting for me to play.

This basically ticks all the boxes for amazing jam game. Nails the theme, super simple premise amazingly executed. Top dollar, nice one.

score : 15558
I love the idea ! its short but intenseeee ! Really nice game

Really creative idea! It feels like diving into a fractal. Well executed and polished.

Wow! Awesome idea for a game. My eyes hurt from staring at this line, you can't blink :) My top score was almost 48000! I love the sounds. Great job!!

Nice to see the final product with the lose state in place! Still very cool. The audio adds a lot too, I like how it's kind of spooky 👀 Making the text itself the level is also a great touch. Simple but so good!

This is one of my favorites so far for sure. My mind is blown at the concept and the level of polish. The fact that the high score is reused as the "level" for the next game is so cool.

Simple concept, super playable. Makes you want to keep beating your score like any good game of this genre.

Woaw this is a really great game, good job!

Remarkable! The fact that a jam game was able to give me an adrenaline dump less than a minute into it is surely an achievement! Bravo!

The idea and the graphics are soooo cooooooool :D

Love the concept. I also appreciate you shared the technical details of the game. Simple yet powerful.

The smoothness of kill screen into the game is very creative!

Once i figured out what i was supposed to do and how to do it, i was really exiting.

Amazing game, it feels great when you understand what to do. Congrats!

One of my two top games this LD. Incredible what's been done with so little.

That's the kind of genius idea that let you spend 1h on gameplay and 20h on fun "pointless" effects. I'm jealous. Also the result is amazing.

Love the effects and sound design; it is such a trip diving deeper and deeper into a fractal. I can't imagine the technical breakdown of this game and it's truly innovative in my eyes. Great work!

WOW! Now that's satisfying gameplay, amazing!!

It's so rare to play a game with a fundamentally unique mechanic. Such a cool idea, and the effects around are so effective at giving the impression of falling faster. The soundscape really adds a lot to the experience. I love the idea that these pieces of text have so much detail if you zoom in, like going into the roiling mass of the universe at the plank length or something. Dang cool game.

This game is so cool. It's one of the most creative entries by far. I love how pure it is. You click and you're diving into the "world" itself. It's really a fantastic idea.

Great work!

it took a few tries to understand what was going on, but i just can't explain how this game FEELS GOOD

Ohhh so that's what pixels are made of!

Very nice idea!
Perfect realization.

Damn, really great idea - don't think I've seen anything like it before. Very exciting to play too.

Here's my high score so far after a bunch of tries (I'm slowly getting better :P)


As a side note, I think instructions in the description would be a good idea - it took me a little while to figure out how to play.

It so cool :smile:
I wonder how you write this code;
why this curve can get biger and biger :thinking:

Really great game. Novel mechanics, retro graphics and I love the sound! Excellent entry!

Really innovative idea and very fun to play!

I have to admit it took me a few tries to actually understand the mechanics. This is very clever, well done! Amazing what one can do with a little math and GL.Lines! :clap: :clap: :clap:


Like others said, took me a while to figure out what to do but this was neat. kept me entertained for a while

Wow, this is absolutely amazing! The concept is "simple", and yet it quickly achieves to be intense without feeling repetitive. And on top of that the visual presentation and the audio are perfect. I love this impression of unity the game provides. It really is a incredible experience! And congratulation for the technical aspect. Finding the right trick for an infinite zoom can get quickly complex, the illusion is perfect here!
