Not sure if I got the interpretation correctly or not. \rThe way I understand it, you are in war with some kind of other nation and you start killing them until you realize you were just killing civilians all along and made a genocide? That was really an interesting thought to come across. \r\rI guess the only win situation is to stop and not kill others. \r\rI loved the music it fit the idea (if I understood it correctly above) very well and I liked the gameplay too. Really simple and effective. \r\rGood work all in all :)"},{"author_name":"FeYbraNt","author_uid":"39099","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 11:25am","epoch":1408965600,"text":"Interesting interpretation and message to people, it's sad that we don't fight against wars while in other places people is dying."},{"author_name":"BillToWin","author_uid":"34255","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 11:32am","epoch":1408966020,"text":"Once I internalized that those dots were people, it sent shivers down my spine.

Reminds me of Spec Ops: The Line in the fact that there is always the option to stop. I don't know if the Israel Palestine conflict was on your mind, but it was definitely on mine. As a game, I felt as though I had very little control over what was happening. As a gamer I am accustomed to being in control of the situation, and it is something that we should be dissuaded from. The power of this game is that you are affecting the world dramatically, but you are not in complete control of how you are affecting it."},{"author_name":"xrm0","author_uid":"25867","time":"Sep 12, 2014 @ 2:13pm","epoch":1410530880,"text":"Interesting"}],"images":["ld30\/39477-bacad76d25d809936e8e2227943e9539.jpg","ld30\/39477-634dfb14f1c0c389e687b83a39a19e7b.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/bit.ly\/1wy0pwM","text":"Web"},{"url":"http:\/\/bit.ly\/1yPUGkW","text":"Windows"},{"url":"http:\/\/bit.ly\/1zPe67N","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"16409","g_author":"39477","g_event":"LD30","g_eventkey":"24","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"16438","g_title":"Color Bleed","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"471","g_commentcount":"20","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/375043\/39477-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/375043\/39477-shot1.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"My first ludum dare entry.\r\n\r\nA game about war and color.\r\n\r\nMade with Game Maker: Studio.\r\nMusic: http:\/\/www.abundant-music.com\/\r\nSfx: http:\/\/www.bfxr.net\/\r\n\r\nShould dropbox fail us:\r\nWeb: http:\/\/ranseur.itch.io\/color-bleed\r\n\r\nv 1.02: Fixed a game breaking bug.\r\n \r\nNote1: If you are on a very old laptop, I suggest using the Windows build, which is the most performing.\r\nNote2: The source code is a forest dark. 48 hours result in quite nasty code.\r\n","title":"Color Bleed"}
