The mechanic is fairly good, and some of the effects (referring to the lightning one) are pretty spot on.\rBut overall, the size of the game's screen is pretty small in my opinion. You could have gone without the outdoors area, in order to have some more space for the actual gameplay rather than just filler for the screen.\rThe other thing is that it becomes disorientating at times, with all the sound bubbles, depicting your current position. I feel like I'm on both sides of a wall at times."},{"author_name":"MrDave","author_uid":"49905","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 1:40pm","epoch":1440423300,"text":"I find it hard to give this game a fair rating because it is a two player game so I never got a chance to experience the game as intended. Because of this I will abstain from rating in any of the categories that would require this. \r\rThere are still many things I liked about this game, the lightening effect was really cool, and also I like the idea of being able to detect the other player when they bump into walls."},{"author_name":"KR-Eddie","author_uid":"15475","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 1:42pm","epoch":1440423420,"text":"Just a heads up: You need to enable the Unity plugin to play the game (Chrome showed me a tiny warning)\r\rIt's a bit hard to rate a multiplayer entry without having someone to play with :\/\rAnyway, the concept was interesting. I've played a sound based game before. Still, it was a bit difficult to control your character because they moved so fast (I only realized this on the replay).\rCareful with your english.

At the beginning it is a bit hard to control the character. It would be nice to have a AI. Maybe wait two seconds before stopping the record (which is a great idea) because if you were playing, you would skip it.

An AI is a good idea but needs work (ofc) the idea to wait before launching the replay is good, I haven't thought about it :)"},{"author_name":"highlyinteractive","author_uid":"14065","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 5:53pm","epoch":1440438480,"text":"Characters are very hard to see - instructions are quite verbose, so I might have missed something."},{"author_name":"Peach Pie Productions","author_uid":"40673","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 5:54pm","epoch":1440438540,"text":"Fun Ghost Simulator 2015!!"},{"author_name":"sepharoth213","author_uid":"39935","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 5:54pm","epoch":1440438540,"text":"Really clever design, though it is very difficult to play since there are so many mechanics that are all bizarre all happening at once.

I decided to make a local multiplayer game whith a bit of asymetricals elements. Made in 48h alone and with my wooden pc! Challenge complete! All the graphics are made with paint (not.net).
