Wow, I didn’t hope to actually receive anymore comments so long after january. Thanks for your praise!

I hope it won’t take me too long to find the time to work at an EGP game again

This is a pretty good submission. You did get it to the point where it is fun, so congratulations. It has nice polish and good gameplay and is still unique enough to stand on its own.

Hello Collin,

which parts of the blog are you refering to? Not counting the Screenshots, the occasional smiley and the wordpress logo, this entire blog doesn’t contain a grain of color, everything is in grey tones.

I just used http://vischeck.com to check how a person with Protanope color vision would see the blog, and it looked fine to me.

Food for thought, (well, what I could read of it). I suffer from color blindness (protanopia in my case). I use Konqueror browser (unsure if that makes a difference), and much of this web page is hard for me to read. I don’t wish to whinge, and I know it is my problem really, however it would be kind if you could take into account us color challenged types while carrying out your next site design.

Ah, yes, now that you mention it, it rather turned out to be more-or-less like DDR minus music. My original intention was that you can make meaningful choices (read: “do this or do that”) by choosing one of the blue arrows in the middle of it, but that quickly got sorted out due to time (and concept) issues.

And here I feared it might be too easy. Actually, I am not playing DDR and Stepmania myself, I think I just played the game a little too often in the two weeks itself

The AI was kinda difficult to make, because when it fails at a higher rate when it speeds up, these two factors kinda multiply and it never finishes at all…

Anyway, the most imporant thing last: Thank you for your comment! Especially since it is the first one I on this blog!

Nice game, although I admit it is rather like say, DDR

I think it may be a bit harder than you think, though. I don’t play stepmania and such very often, but it gets quite difficult when it starts speeding up even on easy/medium.

Admittedly my game is incredibly harsh, I messed it up I’m just mentioning because devs tend to lose site of just how hard games are and I suspect making a game like this means you’ve played games like it a fair bit.

It also seems like the AI doesn’t really get worse as it speeds up, which would be a little unfair. Looking forward to seeing what you bring next time.
