My Ludum Dare 32 Compo Entry.

The theme is "An unconventional weapon" and I decided to develop an unconventional way to use such a familiar weapon as laser.

Enjoy my puzzle with a twist called "Laserino". Try to get all the achievements done :)

P.S. You have to shoot the bombs

This is a pretty fun puzzle game. Well done, it feels quite polished even!

Fun. Could do with a way to distinguish destroyable walls from reflective walls.

First of all, i really like your font and name choice. I had more victory than defeats, but i see potential in this game. :)

Great game, I like it - works solid for me (in Unity Web Player). As I love puzzle games this is one of my favorites although the weapon isn't the most unconventional I've seen here.

Your game is really great. The different mechanics play really well and the puzzles are short and very enjoyable. Would be great to see this game becoming an expanded or commercial release. :)

Nice game, a lot of potential here. The level where you get shot at almost instantly was kind of frustrating, but otherwise I really liked it. I think you should polish it up and add some more levels. Would be good on mobile.

Hey, very solid game! I know I've seen the reflection mechanic before but this was very well executed. I like that it is somewhere between a puzzle and an action game, in that it tests your timing and reflexes as well as your brain.

The effect on the last level looked cool, but didn't really add anything (it just obfuscated the challenge for me as a player). I also don't feel your font choice matched the tone of the game.

Anyway kudos on so much content (achievements?!? holy cow!). Very, very good entry.

Interesting game with a lot of potential. The general mechanics are cool but some levels seemed a bit arbitrarily designed. The warp effect was very interesting. But the solution to the totaly warped stage was more trial and error. Overall, good job.

Wow, great game, excelent and smooth physics, I really liked that. Also good work making the player learn with no tutorials, well designed levels.

If I had to say some problem I would say two levels. The one with 5 bars moving up and down was really hard to beat and it didn't allow much play with the bounce mechanics. And the last one, I don't know if it is too difficult just for me, but I had to beat it by means of luck.

Overall a great experience, though.

Figglewatts, that's actually a feature and there's a reason for it :)

Lochman-apps, I know ;/ I started with the idea of a sniper without any bullets with a lasersight as his only option, but suddenly gameplay have annihilated the theme.

TeamCalcium, DaveCarlile, there's apk uploaded for those who want to try it out on mobile right now, but yeah, I am aiming to release extended version on Google Play :)

ss64games, thanks for pointing out the mismatch between font/tone. I'll be working on it to maintain one style.

Regarding achievements, I still hope someone will complete unlock them all. That's one of my favorite part of the game :)

pLaw, Mak, I thought that warp mechanics will bring an interesting experience to puzzles, but guess I miscalculated that stuff. I will replace that with something more interesting in post-compo version :)

Quite interesting concept in some of the levels, good job.

My LD favorite so far, good idea, beautiful realization. And it's got achievements! =)
kempy21 Apr 2015, 23:28
This was great! I really enjoyed all the physics effects and the different level concepts (especially the contrast of the en garde and take your time levels).
richiebranson21 Apr 2015, 23:50
very fun, super enjoyable puzzle concept! The achievements were a nice bonus!
FireCamp22 Apr 2015, 00:43
LOVED that game man.
Finished 12 levels of it. Awesome concept. You should port this with better grpahcis / level design and much more on a commerical game. 5/5 on innovation 4/5 fun theme audio ! great game !

Achievement unlocked... lol

Nicely done! I wish there were more levels. Great work!
Orava22 Apr 2015, 08:45
Another vote for maybe toning down the last level's effect. It's super distracting and doesn't really add much.
Zcience22 Apr 2015, 15:15
Really fun puzzle game, a laser isn't the most unconventional weapon, but after the second level one doesn't care anymore :D
DKoding25 Apr 2015, 11:14
Great game, cool mechanics. Like the level progression system, looks very finished. Not too unconventional the weapon, and graphics could be better I guess.. :-)
