microscopia
Microscopia by Azurenimbus is an experimental game made for the Ludum Dare 23 'tiny world' themed competition. Know thyself!
ughrh ata first i though, " o come on this is soo easy" but then i got crazy and totally could have smashed my screen in then level where you control lots of tiny lines!!!!!!!!!
At the higher levels, only way I could find the line was pushing one direction(such as left) in multiple small presses, and watching anything approaching the left side. Typically, each pressing changes the direction, so something that still goes left at that point is probably the right one. Makes it less insane, but requires lots of staring.
It's really quit simple. Just keep pushing 1 arrow key until all the lines are disapeared. Then push another arrow key but now 1 push at a time. You'll find your line faster.
the best thing to do when it gets to where they all move when you press a button is to pick one direction, say, up, and just go to the top with all of them. this eliminates all the ones who go left right and down. then go down halfway back down to the middle so all the top ones are showing and they are in a neat line and very easy to figure out.

ReplyDeletewow so confusing- impossible to find your little line after all of them move when you move your little line.
ReplyDeletearg so frustrating

ReplyDeleteAnon 19:41, that's the same way I found to do the later levels- makes it pretty simple.
ReplyDeleteIt's a cool game concept, though- I like it!

ReplyDeleteOr just move your guy in circles, and he should stand out after a while, provided he hasn't fallen off the screen yet...
ReplyDeleteAWESOME.
ReplyDeleteThats what it says if you beat it
