Orange Squares...Beware! by Benn
Orange Squares...Beware! The white orb is out to get you!
Control the white orb to take out the orange squares by using the mouse to launch the ball.
At the end it displays your time....my personal record is 68.615, I would like to see someone beat it! :D

My Score is 715.925. o.o
theme though?
However, the respect of the theme is a big no-no for me. The "bad orb" and "nice cubes" does not make the game fit the imposed theme, at all. Just my opinion though.
But overall, the near-perfect gameplay would make it a hit on the Play Store or the Apple Store I'm sure.
You guys are right about the lack of theme, I just couldn't find a way to fit it in that didn't take something away from the game.
To me Ludum Dare is about encouraging people to make games. The theme is purely supposed to help people come up with new ideas / inspiration.
If the theme isn't doing that, or is actually preventing people from making games due to disliking the theme, I heartily encourage all of you to drop the theme and make whatever you want as long as you make a game. That's why we are all here, to make games.
I will probably never win a Ludum Dare as a result but I do make games that I am proud of and to me that is more important ^__^
But the game is good and I finished it ; my score is 543.702.
Personally, I'd prefer a game which ignores the theme to one that tries to force the theme in in a really hamfisted way. If you don't want to use the theme, you could disable the theme catagory for judging, just to make it clear that it's not a game about a metaphorical monster or something. ; )
Good work !
definitely something cool and looking forward this method :)
well done for your game
