Fantastic game. I'm not very good with fast reaction time and precise timing, so I don't tend to play games that require it, but occasionally a game is good enough to be worth it. Love the mechanics, the difficulty level, and the great retro sounds and graphics. Well done!!!
Fantastic. I loved it. I usually don't enjoy reflexes/timing-intensive games very much, but I did love this. Also, I love the beautiful music. When you say "cynicmusic" do you mean aka The Cynic Project? If so, I'm not surprised -- I absolutely love his work and it sounds like his more ambient stuff.
Forgot to say that the level with all the creatures and crates and buttons was awesome. I felt very daunted and frustrated at first, and (spoiler) it was challenging, but not *too* challenging, to realize that the objective was to turn all the buttons *off*, at which point of course it became much less diabolical.
In the game's defense, it's a nice loading screen. Font has character (no pun intended), but is readable. The blue on white is nice, and there's nothing "overdone" as far as coloring/styles. The animation of the ellipsis after "Loading" provides a modicum of entertainment while, again, not being gaudy. A very nice, clean, balanced, loading screen.
A little on the frustrating side for me, but I generally don't like timing-intensive games as I don't have great reflexes, so I'm proud of myself just for sticking it out and finishing. What a fun, funny, and utterly charming game.
As others have said, a bit too easy. Annoying to hit the core and then have to quit without even finding out what that last recipe was. Also, I finished with 8 days to spare on my first try and "shouldn't" have, given that it took me a while to figure out how to play effectively. Also, I think it would be nice if downward digging didn't happen automatically. Holding the down arrow key to dig down, would be better. That way you don't accidentally go past stuff that you want. Those complaints aside, a fun and charming game!
Love the graphics and sounds and music. Very pretty game. Also love the idea, and execution. Suggestions: Harder levels, and the game seems a bit buggy and unresponsive. It was really annoying how many times I pressed "up" without it seeming to register. Also there were multiple times that I'm sure I chose a certain action to sacrifice but got a different action taken away. Overall, though, a joy to play.
Love this game! But, I have two houses, two stacks of coins, and three suns on the reeelz, and the matchiness-indicator for "Nothing but calories" (no non-edible items) looks like I'm slightly over halfway there. Bug??? Love this game though. Great, unique idea and well done.
I am really loving this game! I think there is some memory leakage though. I left it sitting idle, not even playing, and came back a little while later to find an "Out of memory" error.
I don't think it is a memory leak - it's just that it loads in a bit of the game when you first start playing and then proceeds to load the rest of it in the backgroundd while you are playing. I think this is a mistake for me to do this. I should just load in what you need and no more and dump stuff that you no longer need in memory.
