A bit tough in places, and after a point I stopped being able to draw lines, even after shaking, (in the second level with all the horizontal lines like blinds), but fantastic art and solid mechanics! I wonder now where I can get an Etchflix subscription. Probably through the mail!
The especially bouncy diagonal level was tough - making it easier to draw lines at odd angles could be a useful feature, though I'm not sure what the best approach for that is with WASD conttrols. Solid work!
Love the etch-a-sketch-y-ness of it. Really fun physics game. The physics seemed to sometimes not be repeatable. The ball would bounce 2 or 3 different ways off of the same bit of line. This may have been intentional, but it made it difficult to adjust my builds with minor tweaks. Still I played it for a long time, so it must have been really fun! The music was good too, very fitting and didn't become annoying after listening to it for a long period of time. The little interlude/intermission ads done in the style of etch, were very well done and humorous. Great game!
Cool concept, and the visuals do a good job of conveying the etch-a-sketch aesthetic. I would've liked if the "cursor" moved a bit faster though, on some of the puzzles it was really tedious just navigating to the right spot.
Really fun concept, really fun execution. The ads are great, the musics great, the puzzles are great.
My only gripe is that some of the hazards I felt should have looked more etch a sketchy. They seemed a little bit too cloud like rather than line like.
Really fun puzzle. This really could turn into a full game (maybe mobile). The graphics are great and the controls are great. The controls are easier to control than an etch a sketch, but that is not a bad thing, considering the control necessary for the game.
Really good game, the only issue is the inconsistent physics, but I'm sure you're already aware of this. I got stuck on the level where the ball starts in the top right and has to go to the bottom left with a gray cross across the screen. Amazing work overall, I loved the music and fake ads.
Really nice twist on an old toy! I included it in my compilation video series of Ludum Dare 36, if you’d like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/kkOlDKzD1Xw
The Kvetch-A-Sketch looks great! I enjoy the stickers on the front, and the fingers moving the controls.
The force effect was clear from looking at it, and after a my first encounter with the disintegration and no-draw-zone it made sense of what they did. Good communications there.
The elements and controls were good. I ended at the gray/no-draw-zone cross level.
Sometimes the physics seemed to vary from one ball re-spawn to another. Some times I had to erase/shake more than once to get the ball to follow its original trajectory for a level (happened on the cross level).
I am impressed! Great visuals, good puzzling, creative mechanics. Nicely done!
