Its a simple game, but I had fun making it. I started a bit late on the Ludum Dare. Got only 5-6 hours to make something! But i'm proud to have finished something. The algorithm sometimes gets messed up for some reason. So, bear with me a little.
Used Unity3d, SFXR for sound, Paint for a few textures.
Nice graphics, quite fun and decent audio. My only complaint is the camera, it was easy to fail if the camera wasn't in the correct place. Other than that, good job! :)
This is really nice. I'd suggest speeding up the ball over time because once you really get the hang of it it gets a little boring. I really like the transition effects for the cubes coming in and out
Fun game with good FX and a polished feel. Camera angle was a little odd, but it didn't seem to hinder me. Audio was a little too sharp on the ears at times though.
Nice take on an age-old game! It's a tad buggy though, there were some cubes here and there that were missing, making it impossible to keep rolling. Other than that, nice! I like the way the cubes fly on their places. :)
Thank you so much for the valuable feedback and the comments... I really appreciate you guys giving the game a go. I will be sure to document the feedback and improve upon the game. It does look like a good mobile game... I will polish it more and publish it soon.
@ChristianBraun : I did think of putting two routes...but within the time I had... it was kinda difficult to put that in the algorithm. I have it in my list though :)
I liked the art style and sound effects. Felt kind of retro futuristic. Minimalistic gameplay, but challenging. Not bad for a weekend, but it could be built upon to add power ups and various effects when rolling on different kinds of tiles. It has potential.
very difficult at first but then you get used to the prospective it becomes more playable very nice graphics and the generation of the level (random i guess) is really cool could have put some more effort in texts and buttons
did 12428. Died on purpose after that since there are only so many patterns.
It was pretty hard at the begining but when I understood that it was easier to focus my attention on the ball rather that on the track it became too easy.
Possible improuvements: -ball could go faster with time -add more patterns -invert control / give the choice -use left and right arrows instead of A and D
I liked it. Quick gameplay with simple yet clear minimalist visuals. One time I jumped right over my landing mark though. Wasn't sure if I didn't rotate properly or if the game screwed me over.
i liked the idea of this game was nice , for some reaosn when i clicked on the maximize button on firefox the controls becme unresponsive so had to play in smaller window
I've seen games very similar to this before, but it fits perfectly for the theme. Also, you should either modify the html file unity generates to make it and change the dimensions so you don't have scrollbars in the embedded frame. Or fix fullscreen.
It's a nice game, a bit difficult. Am I right that the ball doesn't snap to the cubes? It might be a bit difficult sometimes because of that. Other than that, good job ;)
Good job, bro. Yellow block is my favourite :D Restart with R button (or A+D) would be great, I want to forget about mouse at all when I play this game :) My record is 8856
Nice first game. It's fun to play and fits the theme. I had a few missing cubes, but otherwise it was working fine. Would be nice to remove the mouse control for restart and start and use the keys for that too, so you wouldn't need to switch between keyboard and mouse.
Really good idea, and I like how each piece of the path interpolates into place, however it needs something in the background since it's hard to tell how long you've fallen. Also I didn't realise the ball was 3D at first because the texture wasn't very clear.
Very nice game. loved the particle effect when the blocks fell into place. Look forward to seeing a post compo version. I do agree that there should be a background instead of the blackness though. Well done regardless!
Simple yet compelling concept. I like how the level unfolds before you, but I sometimes had trouble understanding where I had to go, especially after a jump of off a blue block. Great entry nonetheless.
impressive how the level generates. like the way the blocks animate to make the level. took a while to get into the controls but was fun when i got used to it, awesome!
Very impressive game, I think it is perfectly suitable for mobile. The sound of the cubes it was too much aggressive, I think one more relaxing audio would be better. I loved the particles that you made. Btw, very nice job. I see potential game in this!
Simple, well made, and fun to watch! I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/r75qiAihqqk

It's a simple idea, but executed very well.
really liked the method the path was made but it was disconcerting a bit that I didn't have a lot of time to plan my moves.
overall i liked it and enjoyed playing it
Well Done!
Really digging the art style.
There are other very interesting ideas !
Sound is quite annoying, though...
took a while to get into the controls but was fun when i got used to it, awesome!

Btw, very nice job. I see potential game in this!
