(1st Ludum Dare!) You are the orange charge. Avoid the red charge. Use the 1, 2 and 3 keys to move to an adjacent wire while over an electrical arc. Collect sparks and... Don't run out of power!
Control your orange charge as it loops round and round, all the while trying to avoid the red charge. Each loop around will increase the electric current, causing the charges to move faster and faster. Collisions with the red charge will cause you to lose power. Collecting electrical sparks will increase your power. Game is over when you run out of power.
NOTE: The 1, 2 and 3 keys can be pressed while the charge is over the wire... the charge will then move to an adjacent wire when it's over the electrical arc.
Innovative concept! Love the graphics! Would have loved to have a track in the background but the sound effects make up for it :D Played the game quite a few times. Would play it again. Congratulations and good luck! :D
Really interesting mechanics, and the game is pretty tough too. After a while of playing can get used to it tho. I believe this would make a really good mobile game if polished.
Cool (and HARD!). Nice work on a really original idea. It took me a second to get my bearings, though. Maybe "press any key to start" or something like that?
cool concept , but yea the controls were a bit on the weird side. mainly when dealing with the left and right sides didnt have numbers to help so it was a bit confusing to me. but none the less pretty fun!
It reminds me of an old Atari 2600 game called Dodge'em. Graphics are crisp and clean. Gameplay is solid. I do have to say it was a bit odd when I started the game as there was no menu and I was immediately in the game. I honestly though it was a demo running until I lost :smile:.
While the controls felt a *little* bit clunky sometimes, and I took some seemingly unavoidable damage, that didn't keep me from enjoying the game. The concept and the mechanics are really neat and clever, and there's a nice difficulty in there. Though really minimalistic, the graphics really helped shape the feel of the game.
Overall, it's a cute game, and you did a great job on it!
Fun game and interesting concept. Its difficult in a good way Only problem is that I often missed transition area, maybe some kind visual queue (on hover) would help. Congrats
Simple game. Quite fun. However I I am not a fan of the controls scheme, I would rather use WASD or arrows for this. It gets really frustrating because of it. Other than that it's very decent and definitely a fun one!
