When the theme " minimalism " has been revealed, a lot of game developpers (including me) were disappointed.
This game is for them (and me). To show that it's impossible to satisfy everyone.

Game made in HTML5 using sfxr.

HELP

Your goal is to reach exactly the optimum level of satisfaction for a given theme. For that, you can reverse letters by clicking them.
Green letters give 1 point.
Red letters give -1 point.
Blue letters copy the previous point.
Purple letters reverse the previous point.

The Ludum Dare setting is funny
And the mathematical puzzles are clever
But the two of them don't mix that well. It feels like you tried to glue two ideas together. It doesn't make the game bad of course, but...yeah, something doesn't work.
Maybe you should have chosen one idea or the other, and exploited it more. anyway, congratulations!

I understand. :)
(It's very hard to satisfate everyone. :O )

Frustrating end.... well played :p
a game really in the theme next time ? ;)

Pyrofouxauthor1 May 2013, 11:31

Yes, I hope that next time I would make a game with the theme and not about theme. :D

This. Was. Hilarious. Funny old game, but the puzzles didn't quite gel for me. But hell if I didn't laugh, Great job.

When I first saw the set-up, I was expecting a joke game (if a funny one), but once the actual game started, it was surprisingly tricky and engrossing. Good job.

Nice game. Absolutely loved comments!

Funny idea.
Just want to let you know that the game seems to break if I click on the suggest button multiple times. Either the score keeps changing and next word never loads, or next word loads, but comments go on forever and I can't press suggest theme button at all..

Hem... It doesn't do that with me. For the time being, abstain from button-mashing ! ;)

(It reminds me some button-based game I made. You can check them at http://pyrsad.olympe.in )
