Thought this was just doing to be a novelty holiday game...but I was wrong! What a cool premise for a puzzle game! I don't have a strategy down yet, but it is satisfying lining up the sparkle from the long X shaped ornaments just right and nailing a long combo. Great game!
Thank you! I kinda rushed this game a bit because I was worried nobody would care about it in January. Glad to see I was wrong! What's your highscore?
57 so far. Doesn't seem to be a free play high score list? Or a way to exit back out to the menu to view it or change modes. Is there a method to the 'stars'? I was thinking maybe striped ornaments together, or black ornaments or something, but they don't seem to correlate. Anyway, it's still a cool concept and I'm having fun with it even in January! Thanks!
Oh, you need to line up ornaments with the opposite color. Sorry, I should've made that more clear somehow. I just updated the store page to mention it.
Thanks! What's your high score? What's a good score
It's hard to say, given how many times I tweaked the balancing in development I lost track of my official high score. I want to say it was around 100 or so, but I'm not sure. Personally the scoring for me breaks down like this:
Although personally I'd just focus on trying to get a better score than you did yesterday. That's what I did when I first played.
