New sound and count down are pretty good.
I must say, I don't think I'm a fan of getting dinged just for trying to hit a final target and missing. Now I'm hesitant to go after final targets because I don't want to get dinged. I was thinking more along the lines of getting a little bonus time in the current stage to help me get more targets before they disappear.
I don't seem to notice getting any positive dings either.
You could do a bonus score multiplyer for hits in a row

I wonder how this would play on a touch screen.

The 3.. 2.. 1.. is a must have feature, I don't know why I didn't think of it right away.
I have to admit the circles appearing on circles was unintentional, but I see how it can be used as sort of a hidden bonus. As for the retry bug, I've replayed the game several times and I haven't came across this error, or maybe I accidently fixed it when updating to v0.4. I've fixed that bug also, before your score gets submitted, it checks to see if your high score is higher then your current score. The micro bonuses are a great idea, will for sure add them. As for the mis-clicking, it has happened to me several times :P But I don't know how to fix it without sacrificing the games style. Thanks a lot Ts. Your criticism helped this game a lot! Helped me make the game way better. Expect v0.4 to be more stable, and more feature-full. Tsfreaks: (Oct 3 2011, 7:23 pm)
Great little game and I like your style choices. A couple things...
- Consider allowing a little time at start so the player can get ready. 3...2...1... and then a small delay after that would help. - Some circles appear in other circles which is a neat "feature". It can be challenging to spot though. - There is a buggy state that you can get into when restarting games. Effectively, the game is running twice and so it resets each "stage" twice. I thought I could exploit it because the stages go by faster (first one gets reset by second one but first one dictates the end time) but I was unable to score more. - When you get a lower score than your highscore, you change my score to the lower score which is no fun. - Making the rings different points would be very cool. - I thought that the s,m,l pattern was neat but also becomes sort of too systematic because it mandatory but again, its also a neat tactic. - What if you added micro amounts of bonus time for hits and decremented for misses. Clicking and hitting a small on the first shot would award +.5 which gives me a chance to click the other small target across the screen. - Consider adding some screen shots to your hub page. - I mis-clicked several times and had to restore windows which destroyed my chances of a high score. This is my own fault but having a full screen option might be nice. Great work. :) |

Ts, I understand where your coming from, as I've testing it many times and the misses to tend to drag my score down a lot. I was thinking about added a +0.5 second addition to the timer for hits. I did have something like this made out, but I thought people would be able to keep the game going on for a long time (would add +1 second for each hit), but I have removed that. Your multiple hits could be a good addition, probably going to add this along with a chain counter.
EDIT: It must look like I'm cheating on the hub scores to.. But it was just the retry bug that I was testing, and I forgot to disable the score submission system.
