Although the dots (or entire game?) get laggier the faster they go, I really enjoyed this game. Those with older phones might not get as much enjoyment as their devices might choke before it gets challenging. Could use some subtle sfx when making menu selections and "catching" the dots.
Overall, I'm keeping this installed on my phone; hope you will update it for a while!

I would absolutely love to play this, but alas - I don't have an android Device. It looks pretty fun!

Simple, works nice. Didn't really want to see adds during the game though. Good job overall, smooth game.

Really entertaining game, with a simple concept. I can see myself playing this in every waiting room, on every bus stop. Current record is 62. Running smoothly on Samsung S5! Good job on this!

I have try to improve the performance on every device, the update will be up in about two hours. To make it more playable in old devices. Only android, yes.

A bit annoying that it's not on pc, but the game is absolutely fantastic. Amazing job!

Fantastic game, exactly the type of thing I want to play when I have a few minutes to kill, and inevitably the game I constantly say 'one more round' to.

Fun game. Nice design, very clean. Impressive for a few days. All the social stuff and achievements seem a bit unnecessary and including ads I feel was a bit much for ludum dare.

Aw, I want to try this game!! But I have no android device, would there be any chance of getting a PC port?

Less is more? Minimalistic.... very interesting design. You gave me something to ponder.

Second on the highscore list on my 3 try :P

Was fun. Thank you.

Running fine on my Galaxy Tab 4. Nice and simple game, loved it.

My second try got me the currently third placce in leaderboards with 126 score :D

Minimalism is the key here. I don't even want to wish for something fancier. But I definitely won't play this on a constant basis.

smartly simple and terribly addictive

Has kind of a cool rhythm to it.
Von Hunt8 Dec 2014, 17:27
Simple, stylish and fun. Perfect formula for an app game! Good job!

I liked the game, the concept is really cool and the execution is great (especially the graphics, too bad there's no audio) but:

- I kind of disliked the fact that there are ads, that's not the point of LD for me.
- It's sad that you didn't give the source

It's pretty neat and funny! I think this casual game very fit busy people! I've already install into my phone. :D

Really simple and a lot of fun. Good job.

Little laggy on my Nexus 5.
Wakka8 Dec 2014, 18:58
A really good and well made game. But ads for a jam entry? Are you serios?
Omer8 Dec 2014, 19:12
Awesome - a good deal of fun - addicting phone app worthy for sure. Simple enough idea, yet it becomes very challenging. Great job and good use of the theme.

Minimalistic graphics)
Kinda in trend now)

Fun game, but why those ads?
Antworks Studio9 Dec 2014, 03:22
A suprisingly enjoyable game as well as a fountain of adds
Bogden9 Dec 2014, 07:31
Ugh. The game is good, but the ads....

Great game but a bit of lag. Either way, keep up the good work!
GreenyUk9 Dec 2014, 16:14
I really like this OP. Great simple concept, great polish and achievements. It needs music and SFX, then you have a great app. This is the type of app that I could see going viral. It will be staying on my phone and i hope you continue to develop and polish even more.

Ran fine for me BTW with a HTC One (original version)

Runs smoothly on my HTC One. It was fun an challenging. Only Google+ was a bit annoying. I like it minimal look ab feel!

A really nice fun game with cool transition and graphics. Gameplay is pretty cool as well though I feel like it could be more complicated
