    It's an endless (or not, depending on what mode you play) runner, accompanied by great music and nice, stylized graphics. It looks a lot like the old vector-based games.
    It's a great way to kill some time if you're bored, and when you get into your groove you can keep on playing it for a pretty long time.

    A good game that falls short only on longevity/re-playability.
    While both graphics and music are extremely fitting and well made once you finish the game you have 2 choices to continue playing it: try to "beat" the game (100% complete) or enjoy 3 "simple" (as in not-complex) endless mode maps.
    So if you're the "achievement" guy who wants everything 100% complete you may have earned    A good game that falls short only on longevity/re-playability.

    So if you're the "achievement" guy who wants everything 100% complete you may have earned yourself a lot more playtime, otherwise you will get bored pretty soon playing the same "simple" endless maps.
    Procedurally generated levels with themes from the arcade one would have gotten this game 10/10.

    That said every bit of time I spent on this game was fun and, probably, even the time I'm going to spend on it when I want to relax a bit will be fun just as much.
    Totally recommended to anyone.    … Expand

    FOTONICA is a one-button endless runner that knows how to hypnotize the player with its wonderful trance music and well-implemented vectorial graphics.

    Fotonica brings a minimal design with an original concept, with a level of depth that you wouldn't imagine for a single-button game. The PC version is now also enjoyable with up to other three players, thanks to the improvement to the local split-screen multiplayer.

    It feels good and the minimalistic visuals draw you in, but soundtrack and content are disappointing.
