I can't even figure out how to start the game... not off to a good start.
OK never mind - there is a link that says "play prototype in browser" but it's not obvious
@Anonymous, I found that too and got it to... do something. These "art" games usually don't make any sense to me. This one sure doesn't.
Garbage. Pure garbage. This isn't anything I'd consider a "game". There appears to be no way to play with a trackpad, as it only references the center mouse button or mouse scroll mechanism. So that clearly rules the rest of us out.
It's an absolute waste of time!
bit unsettling - as intended, probably.
But definitely more on the art thant the game side, so not really interesting to play.
I liked it. Some hints could be implemented to remove the frustration points, but overall good job by the developers!
Two-finger gesture does work on the trackpad, btw, but still don't see the point of it. You switch from friends to enemies and back again, ok, so...
I think maybe everyone is missing that this is a download. Re-read Bart's description above to find the download link to the complete game. Most of you seem to be commenting about the prototype. ;)
After reading the last comment I found the prototype and now I understand the comments. Wow indeed it is frustrating! Anyways I also suggest playing the full game. Well, it might still not for everyone, but at least more playable.
I can understand why Bart likes this.
It is sort of like his color games, but without the color, or logic.
No problem running it on steam, Firewall had to block something though.
One button, and as they say "know when to hold em, know when to fold em."
Very artistic, relaxing short game, I like it!
