Excellent retro vibes! The presentation and the soundtrack set a melancholically spacey mood. For 2€, it's an excellent chill-out game that is deeper then most reviews suggest:
You are a triangle. Creeps spawn. If any creep touches you, it's game over. If you are closer to a creep than any other player/triangle, the creep turns into your color and starts to hunt you down (until another player gets closer....). There are different kinds of creeps:
a) small filled squares: they move extremely slowly towards their prey
b) large unfilled squares: they move towards you if you have your back on them, but evade you if you face them
c) triangles: these are bastards! they will hunt you down extremely fast, like homing missiles
d) pluses: these fly rather fast in a straight line, easy to be dodged. Also, they explode randomly.
You have a special on a cool down that lets you do two things:
- You can use a boost that speeds you up and lets you push through creeps.
- You can use a "gravity shockwave" that concentrically pushes away all creeps. The closer they are to you, the violently you send them flying (this can turn even filled small squares into dangerous projectiles)
Levels vary in deisgn. Some are races, others have laser beams you need to avoid, some spawn creeps from the centre, some from all 4 directions, etc. Some levels also feature "clouds". They block out the creeps and as long as you're hiding in the cloud, you don't alert any creeps.
I think the main tactic is to trigger shockwaves in dense clumps of creeps in order to send them out flying in the general direction of your opponent. But it's often hard to identify the exact position of your opponents. After all, they're but a triangle in a sea of colourfull triangles and squares...
This is a pretty game with a great electronic soundtrack. That said, the controls are not intuitive and there is no documentation about how to get the game up and running or the rules/mechanics. After 5 minutes of trial and error I got the game up and running, and there is almost no sound effects to help you decode the massive amount of chaos on the screen. It's a cool retro idea, and I love the retro aesthetic, however the game was more frustrating than fun for me.
Once you figure it out, it's a pretty addictive and competitive game!
