I thought it had something to do with the sounds they were making, but I couldn't see a big enough difference between sounds to tell.

Really interesting and new game experience for me, I will try to get 20\/20.\n\nTimer is rounded to 0.5 secs which is a huge limitation for a time-based game. It should be rounded to 0.01 seconds and have a visual progress bar as well, I think.\n\nAlso I've got some issues when clicked multiple times on the game screen (it seems UI menu is not disabled when game is started).","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Thrillho","author_uid":"1010596","time":"2017-12-13T23:58:07Z","epoch":1513209487,"modified":1513209487,"text":"Hmm.  I must be missing something.  It feels completely random, and I don't understand how you're supposed to tell one portal from another.  However, this makes the game feel like a really unfair game of Russian Roulette, and the tense music only enhances that.  The theme definitely fits, since the more portals, the more hopeless your chances seem.  Anyhow, the idea is solid, but I'm sure there's something I'm not understanding.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"icxon","author_uid":"1000482","time":"2017-12-14T01:05:48Z","epoch":1513213548,"modified":1513213548,"text":"@thrillho, enhance your sound volume and listen carefully :smile:.
