Feels very loose and I love it. It is quite relaxing. Quite mesmerizing if you ask me! Controls feel tight and snappy. Great job guys!!

I think this is the start of something beautiful.
This was an awesome entry.
I had following thoughts while playing the game, maybe they are right maybe not, up to you:
* Game should start with some basic values filled in, as soon as you connect some nodes there is stuff already happening, instead of starting from scratch, this could give the player an easier time getting things started
* It wasn't very clear to me what sort of values you were expecting in the nodes (especcially the RGB one) Above point might also help with this?
Thanks you for the experience!

Thank you all for the feedback! :heart:
@evogengames, Very good tips, the value limits are really important, I'll clamp it and maybe add a tooltip. Also, I'll think on how to better guide the player.

This feels like one of those Zen games.
Very neat idea.
The graphics are very pretty when you've got something going for it.
Would've liked to have seen a tutorial of some kind in-game.
The music doesn't really suit in my opinion, something more Zenlike would've worked a lot better.

Very cool and relaxing entry!
Beside what @evogengames suggested, I would also make input field bigger, also actually indicating that I'm editing one. Sometimes I had to smash my mouse button to actually start typing something. :smiley:
It looks like a cool game that would be ported to mobiles. Just make everything bigger, add option to export to image and voilà! $$$ many is coming and you have created relaxing, chilling, nice looking wallpaper generator.

Thank you all :heart: :heart:
@james-joubert, In game programming is one of the things I really like to implement. The music, though, is was chosen because of the clarinet on top, but I think I'll starting suggesting the players to, if they feel so, mute and play a nice relaxing music of their own taste ^^.
That's true, @bukkaketears, The feedback on the UI is very important and you brought some good points. I'll make sure to work a bit more on the UI for the next version.

It was a smooth and fun gameplay. I liked your style!

Very relaxing, I liked it a lot! I was a bit thrown by the angles being in radians as opposed to degrees - I started with what I thought was a pretty modest 32 which turned out to not be modest at all. Beyond that though, I think it's a really nice idea and executed well.

Very special interpretation of the theme. Nice job!
Samdwester7 Oct 2020, 02:50
Cool concept! You can really get into different shapes

Eugenik7 Oct 2020, 03:46
This brought back some memories!
Tom_A7 Oct 2020, 11:13
Nice idea and an interesting interpretation that fits theme well. As other said, nostalgic feel!

Misterm7 Oct 2020, 17:08
Different concept of game, it is a cool creation tool with relaxing music.. good job

Hi Im Greg7 Oct 2020, 19:37
Really unique concept. I feel like I could sit down and play this and discover new things to do for ages. It's cool seeing the artwork others have made for it. If I remember I'll come back and toy with it more.

Beautiful game! At first I found controls unintuitive (nothing was drawn), but after looking at examples you provided, I have grasped concept - you have to connect rules in the loop with themselves, and it works like a plotter or Logo turtle language. Actually it's quite hard to get all timings right, you have to calculate that their sum divisible at some common number! Sharing my result so far, I really enjoyed time spent with this game.

Absolutely love it!
It did take me a while to understand how the loops affected the stylus and board, but after that it all fit together nicely.
The only thing I can think that bothered me was that the angles were in radians, which makes entering specific angles cumbersome.

Thanks for the feedback ❤️❤️❤️.
Regarding the controls feel not intuitive at the beginning, it surely need some work on the UI, maybe a tooltip too.
Regarding the angle, it definitely needs that tooltip. It is in degrees, but this is degree/frame

I missed some instructions in-game and I am not really into this kind of "game" ^^U but I liked the mood and the grapchics + audio ;-)



Well graphics depends on the user I guess, so I have to give a bad score because mine did not come out great :D
(joking of course)
Impressive work for the timeframe! Everything just works so smooth
