I would've liked to have more time to experiment with levels and progression of complexity.  Instead it turned into more of a smash-and-grab.  The levels were very much thrown together and the concept rather rapidly explained, but I'm glad I got something that was at least a challenging progression. :)"},{"author_name":"TeamFlare","author_uid":"25793","time":"Dec 31, 2013 @ 2:06pm","epoch":1388498460,"text":"It has a cool retro feel and the concept is interesting.

The graphics were functional and the sound effects were really good even with the lack of music.  I wish that the pacing would have been a little faster - every time you die you have to sit for what feels like a very long time before you get back to the action.  It feels like the game needs something else to be truly fun, but it has a very good base.  Good job!"},{"author_name":"epb9000","author_uid":"14828","time":"Jan 4, 2014 @ 7:11pm","epoch":1388862360,"text":"Excellent use of the theme, got down to three pods.

I consider this a game-breaking bug as laid out in the compo rules, and thus a legitimate fix.  (It was also a 2-line fix -  a typo that led to the wrong sequence of events.)\r\n\r\nHere's my first successful LD entry in a while! :D  Glad I finished, and while it's not wholly feature-complete, it's complete enough to be a full, fun game.\r\n\r\nFor those who are finding it difficult: stick it out; there are checkpoints!  For those of you playing on non-QWERTY keyboard layouts, I'm sorry!  I'll be uploading alternate control schemes in a post-compo version; my submission time was down to the wire as is.\r\n\r\nThere are several theme tie-ins:\r\n- You only get one gem of each color (at a time)\r\n- You only get one life (until the next checkpoint)\r\n- You only get one level (mastering it gets harder)\r\nFor the non-QWERTY people:\r\n- You only get one control scheme (sorry guys XD)\r\nFor those who make it all the way to level 3:\r\n- You only get one [REDACTED]\r\n\r\nIn the end, Only One Remains.\r\nGood luck!\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nIn-game help follows:\r\n\r\nWelcome to ONLY ONE REMAINS!\r\n\r\nArrow keys move, Z & X rotate your pods.\r\n\r\nCollect gems with your pods in order to clear like-colored gates.\r\nIf a full pod touches another gem the gem will be destroyed, if it is a like-colored gem the pod will also emptied.\r\nYou only get one gem of each color - filling a pod with a duplicate gem will empty all your pods.\r\nFinally, protect your centroid - if it touches a gate or gem it will be disintegrated.\r\n\r\nSurvive all the levels to win!","title":"Only One Remains"}
