In order to respect the theme, I chose to develop an entire game playable in one inch of screen, and which is controlled using a thumb.
The sources are in Corona format (LUA).
For the moment the game is only available on Android smartphones.
Update (for the 72h jam version): - integration of sounds from Robert Del Naja (few notes from the 'S-' track) - an additional game mechanic in the gameplay
Cute mobile game, nice visuals but as I tapped left me wanting there to be a song to play to and more difficulty to the game. After I did the tap -> swipe movement I felt the game was going to transition into a rhythm game but it did not :(
I like the minimalstic style! Played the compo version and thought it would be nice to have more mechanics. Will try the j version to See what you came up with. Played and written on a nexus 5
I can appreciate the minimalist approach to the design of the player mechanics. There is a lot more room to elaborate on this idea, I think. Nice entry!
Played the compo version. Sweet looks and sounds! Though I kind of get the feeling I'm following instructions rather than playing a game. The timer is so slow for each move that there is not much challenge and the pace stays the same. I think it has a lot of potential though!

Maybe work this out a bit more and see what you can come up with.
I'd love to see this to music (almost like a one finger DDR style game)
Then you can join our crew :)

For now, the only thing i can see going wrong is that my thumb sometimes hide arrows.
But Great graphics, good enought feedbacks, Okay sound. Simple design that works. Good job !
