Title: Power Vacuum [version 1.0 released] Post by: HybridMind on December 09, 2009, 07:16:34 AM (http://hybridmind.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/pv-comp.jpg) (http://hybridmind.com/power-vacuum.html)
Some example levels Power Vacuum Help the atom recover its missing electrons! You only have 60 seconds to collect all 100. Play it here (http://hybridmind.com/power-vacuum.html) Background: I made this game last week for a contest where the imposed limit was that every game could only last 60 seconds. I wanted to make a game that was very simple to play and tough to put down. I'm fairly happy with how things turned out. It is my own take on the mouse-skill avoider / collector genre combined with Wario-Ware style quick levels. If you give it a go I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thanks!

It's great for testing your :ninja: reflexes. I got 93 points 8)

I got 93 points 8) Thanks for trying it out! It is a game where having a good control is a must. It takes a decent mouse or tablet pen for most people to really do well. I can't get above a 65 on my laptop 'eraser head' mouse but I can get a perfect score on my desktop. :ninja: I am really happy with how the backgrounds turned out too, thanks. I wanted the 10 level progression to be represented subliminally by a progression from ROYGBIV and then copper, silver, gold. I was trying to keep UI to a minimum. Thanks again.

I was eventually able to get 87 points but not able to get 100.
Pretty fun game, and I second the compliment about the backgrounds.

Managed to finally record a gameplay video of it. Tried for awhile to get a perfect score but was always making one tiny mistake or another. Took the best take anyway. Here is a video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vuq_hcgHl3c) of me getting 98/100. :ninja: |
