The central cube constantly expands and gets increasingly bigger after destroying a set amount of cubes; to me that is evolution and a (finally) creative take on the theme.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The music is very pretty and the visuals (colorgasm) really make this game a brilliant one, not to mention Tone is SUPER ADDICTIVE. Well done! :)"},{"author_name":"hgcummings","author_uid":"11392","time":"Sep 1, 2012 @ 4:26pm","epoch":1346516460,"text":"This was quite fun: Simple but effective mechanic, and the visuals were great. I don't mind about the music, but it would have been awesome to make better use of sound effects instead. Nicely challenging too, although I think I did pretty well (about 1.2M points)."}],"images":["ld24\/4668-141a36c56cddda2add0cca2f575e0c41.jpg","ld24\/4668-ccdc90848b43745e5bf2f8caea50b333.jpg","ld24\/4668-f51f17eadae9bdaded0f3648e6158b68.jpg","ld24\/4668-307d4b1b970c5cbfb78d4a2a1ab68f7e.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.dannygoodayle.com\/tone\/TONE_WINDOWS.zip","text":"Windows"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.dannygoodayle.com\/tone\/TONE_MAC.zip","text":"OS\/X"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.kongregate.com\/games\/DanG23\/tone","text":"Web"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.dannygoodayle.com\/tone\/TONE_Source.zip","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"29253","g_author":"4668","g_event":"LD24","g_eventkey":"12","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"29283","g_title":"TONE","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"104","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\/\/163678\/4668-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/163678\/4668-shot1.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/163678\/4668-shot2.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/163678\/4668-shot3.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Developed in Unity for Ludum Dare 48\r\n\r\nMusic by Simonus - http:\/\/soundcloud.com\/simonus\/simonus-voice-in-the-clouds\r\n(I had no idea outside music was against the rules!
