Just made a new game - http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/536321

I think people who like unusual and challenging games would like it:) Even though it is in a sense quite opposite to Dwarf Fortress - it's all about visual.

My weak-ass computer doesn't have the oomph to play that at a decent framerate and that is terrible. Maybe the Opera flash plugin is really inefficient? I don't know.

[Schilcote]

I played it for a while. Pretty hard.

I'm totally going to expand on this concept. I already have a simple physics engine that I wrote a while ago, it'd be absolutely perfect for this.

[tylor]

It is somewhat heavy on the CPU time, yes :/ Though I optimized it as much as I could.

Oh, YOU made it. Good job!
I take it you just made a whole bunch of dots and used a simple physics system to push them towards the cursor, then let them leave streaks on the screen, right?

[tylor]

Mostly yes. But it's hardly "physical" in most cases. They just behave some way, and that way is different on each level.

[Toady Two]

Very relaxing!

[debvon]

I love it, great game!

[Jakkarra]

The game dosent run any faster if i make the screen red.

Fix that bug.

[Dr. Johbson]

I''m getting good rates on a semi-fried CPU from 2005.

[tylor]

Switching music off can make it somewhat faster. Or upgrading your flash to latest version.

[Saint]

It made me mad.
It's not "fun" like DF it's really a game of see how long you can play before you get pissed and quit.
so it's ok but not personaly my kind of game.

I was frustrated at first, but once I got used to it, this was awesome.

Rose was delightful and beautiful.

...I couldn't get enough perfects to unlock Hive.  :x  But that game was awesome.

[tylor]

Damn, making games too hard is may achilles' heel. And you haven't seen the first version - THAT was frustrating.

[Sowelu]

I dunno, I got through it in half an hour including twelve perfects, I wouldn't call it "too hard".  In fact I'd call it "just about right" for my tastes, for what it is.
