Made in 72 hours for Ludum Dare 59, on the theme of "Signal" (entry page here). This was a solo project, but I used some helper scripts and shaders I had created before the jam, and the music is all chopped up bits of a song I had previously made.

A really interesting game and concept. I think it’s great for practising your reflexes. Thanks for the game

A little gameplay, a little critique ;)

I like the game the controls are a bit funky but honestly a fun challenge however i find it difficult to master the bonus's with the left arrow and right arrow whilst the speed of transmissions increases exponentially. If your going to make it incrementally harder as time goes on thats fine but i would prefer a more defined notice of when the speed increases with perhaps a couple seconds in between for players to mentally prepare. e.g. a title screen saying "speed of transmitting increasing", or "extra transmissions imminent" it doesn't really matter what it says but in some way showing that the transmissions are about to get faster.

Also maybe before each speed up you can make a 30 second timer for the bonuses cause idk abt the rest of the players but eventually i just cant multitask the beacons and the bonuses and end up solely focusing on the beacons.

Also what is ht point of having separate difficulties if your just going to continue increasing the speed of transmissions with no end in sight?

cool idea!

hard to enter in the game ... too complicated ...

我喜歡這遊戲 玩法很有趣

Cool graphics and music - really nice vibe overall 🙂

Gameplay-wise, it’s a bit so-so for me. The core idea is solid, but the steering feels overcomplicated, which kind of gets in the way of the fun. With simpler controls, this could be an awesome casual game. 

Cheers!

Very cool. So polished and stylish. Could be a perfect mini-game for a larger game. I really liked it.

This game is a little difficult, but the concept is very interesting.


What your supposed to do in this game is that your going to intercept the 'beams'. You must use the arrow keys and the W/S key on your keyboard to do this.


Good luck, ranger!

That was fun as hell. Really simple concept too. Love it!

What a cool little game. Intuitive and satisfying. Pretty impressive for a 72 hour solo jam 😱
