The clean two-tone graphics really help communicate the mechanic to the player.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I found it quite difficult to manage the button presses whilst navigating the narrow corridors.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Perhaps disabling the turrets should be automatic when the player touches them? And maybe you could just use one mouse button to toggle between the two states.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Cool idea!"},{"author_name":"kyyrma","author_uid":"8424","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 6:52pm","epoch":1408992420,"text":"Love games where music is a part of the gameplay.

As it was, I did it visually.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>This is obviously just a concept demo since it only has 5 rooms, but it's creative and impressive. Good work.\r<br\/>*Just read your note at the top, that explains why it felt like one person built this from scratch.

Before, nobody could see nor be affected by the other one but things are changing since some few peoples understood that the two world are beating at the same pace.
