I like the graphics and style of this game. And how they used the girl moving around even for their menus. And you can even make footprints on the credits screen! *lol*

I also like the fresh concept. But I must admit that I am currently stuck at the Mandelbrot level. Sooner or later I always get trapped in the head, with all the echoes clogging up the neck so I can't get out again without dying. Looks like I have to try some different way.

A great game that is totally worth the price. (I like it better than Blastoff). I often like to play a quick level or two when a have a few minutes spare time but not enough for anything longer.

You can get by fairly easily in this game. Things get challenging when you try for the trophies. For the price, you can't beat the quality of this game. Easily the most recommended Halfbrick game on Indie Games IMO.

The different modes add a bit of variety to keep things interesting.

I imagine this one will go up to 240pts, but you never know, maybe they will drop it to 80...great game at any of those price points.

 

whats the point?

The game didn't appeal to me at all, it just felt pointless, it doesn't feel like you have any control of what's happening. The levels turn out to a random mess pretty fast!

I really like how this game is challenging but not overly impossible. The graphics look good and the concept of the game is fun.

I like how they have a penalty for messing up but you don't have to completely replay a level.

The demo is a bit short, but just play though it a couple times to get a hang of it if once it not enough.
