    Hi everyone!

    I am soon releasing BLUK, a minimal iOS physics based platform game.
    Its a game where you drag your finger on the screen to create a partial trajectory and release to jump from Pillar to Pillar. The procedurally generated levels get harder as you go on.
    You also have multiple worlds where each one has unique challenges like falling pillars, slippery pillars, etc.
    Check out the trailer below. Any feedback is appreciated.

    Cool. I've tried other games where this is the premise, but yours looks the coolest so far.

    I think the text is a nice touch. Maybe just have an option to toggle it on or off.

    The text was only for screenshots.

    Screenshots

    We have screenshots.
    This is going to be a premium game, so screenshots, icon and preview video will be super important for us. I would love any feedback.

    Amazing Art!

    I love the artstyle. It feels very calming and elegant. And at some stages very aggressive! The game also seems to give that kind of vibes where you can just relax and enjoy it at your own pace!

    I like the icon, the black cube kept on the red background is a good contrast. I don't know about the small particles in the icon. I mean the icon will be so small will be be properly visible?

    Thanks! Glad you liked it! The particles are tiny but they are still visible on the iPhone screen. I tried to take a screenshot and post it here but they are less visible in the screenshot (maybe compression?)

    Made this unpredictable world for recording the app preview & showing gameplay. Now I'm thinking it should be made playable in game like a bonus world. Thoughts?

    Definetely screenshots with text!
    May be it would be better to make the same text color on all screenshots?
