Looks good and plays well. It becomes quite hectic after a few calls start to come in. The game was enjoyable and easy to pick up and play.
Thank you so much for playing, and for the feedback! :D
Got 95 connection with a 48 streak, I believe that's a good score?
The difficulty (time interval) seems to drop midgame. Like it slowly become more frequent and then suddenly it drops to very slow and then starts ramping up again.
Also I'd prefer if it connects when I release the mouse button instead of having to click on the second resident.
It also requires some good memory to play, like the hardest difficulty in my game. On that note, you can implement an easier level by just not hiding the resident image.
Overall a fun and addicting game to play. Good job, well done.
Thank you very much for playing, and for the valuable feedback! :D
Oh yes, that is certainly a pretty good score!! The higher the streak, the faster the calls come in.. so at your streak of 48, it will be Hectic! :D Which explains the sudden time interval drop you are seeing; once the streak is reset to 0, the call intervals resets too. Perhaps the call interval should be dependant on other factors too, not just the streak.
Not having to click on each socket would certainly save precious time, when things get hairy.
Yes easy mode with the faces shown is a great suggestion.
Thank so very much for the input, I shall improve for next time! :D
You're an adrenaline junkie, works well under pressure! Thank you for playing, and for the feedback! :D I'm guessing you played it on one of the other platforms (apart form Windows), and it works... that's good to know, as I only have a Windows system to test with! :D
This game is so fun! It nails the theme for sure, and the presentation is amazing. There's a lot of player feedback and the art direction while simple, is really effective. It starts to get really crazy the more you play and it's so intense I love it. My only real grip is that there didn't seem to be a way to cancel once you click on someone. So twice I accidently clicked on the wrong one, and had to lose a life which didn't feel great.
The concept is so cool, I would love to see where you go with this. It needs more variation to happen throughout the playthrough for sure, and maybe even a way to win back lives which a big combo.
Great stuff! Nicely done :)
Thank you very much for playing, and the helpful feedback! :D A way to cancel a connection would've been good, so it wouldn't destroy a streak or lose a life due to a mis-click! Winning back lives from some special combo is a great idea!
I like how the calls appear faster and faster. Gives you a great sense of urgency and progression. Mechanics are also easy to understand. Nice job!
Hehe the residents get chattier as time goes on! :D Thank you so much for playing, and for the feedback!
Simple but effective! I think the pace could go faster after a few connections already, but maybe I'm a masochist :P
Anyway, good job!
The intensity does take a while to ramp up, as it depends on the Streak count. I shall need to rethink the algorithm for those who want to get straight into the action! haha! ;) Thank you for playing, and for the feedback! :D
It was fun! Stoped playing after geting 100 connections, but could probably played for a little bit more if I had time :) Was very simple and easy to play. Really enjoyed when the tempo increased and got more intens. I did get confused sometimes which face I was supposed to look for when it was going a bit faster, so I would have made the difference between the caller and reciever a bit more clearer. It would have been nice also if you could cancel after clicking on someone so you're not forced to fail a connection for that. Well done!
100 connections, you were really on a roll! Oh yes, a cancel connection function would have been useful for recovering from mis-clicks, and clearer faces. Thank you for the feedback, and for playing too! :D
Pretty fun when they start calling quickly. Like a game of memory.
You're right, the game gets easier once you memorise.. I mean "connect" with the residents.. haha! Thanks for playing the game, and for the feedback! :D
I like the artwork and the music in the game. The mechanics of connecting the callers were fun to play especially when on a high streak. Give a good amount of challenge to the game. Great game and one that can be played over and over again!
ooo it gets pretty hectic when the streak increases.. the better you do, the more challenging it gets!! Thank you for playing the game, and for the feedback! :D
