Nice game for mid-2007!

I've been developing the game on and off for a very long time. Unfortunately, due to the constraints of my crappy computer, I can't seem to manipulate more than one sound file. This means that in this version there is only one song running through the entire game, which is frustrating because I know it's going to hurt the playability. If you want to play it with the sound I intended, you can check it out broken into smaller files at my site.
This game details the adventures of a deep space probe sent to another galaxy to collect data on it's native flora. Use the left and right arrows to move, the mouse to aim your camera and click to scan. When a green object is scanned, the photon will have the ability to jump. When a red object is scanned, it will be able to push unfixed objects. When a purple object is scanned, the photon will stop time. Remember, other colours can be picked up and used while time is stopped, but you will be unable to restart time again until a purple colour is re-aquired.
I'm using another account to submit this version as I've forgotten most of the details pertaining to my other, and I can't seem to retrieve the password. I'm not sure if I even use the email address it's attached to anymore. You can play the old game here on newgrounds:
Thanks for playing, I hope you enjoy The Amazing Photon 3.

This game is pretty good. It takes a bit of thought to beat some of the levels and some are quite challenging. I did really enjoy the graphics in this, especially some of the backgrounds, which were beautifully drawn and animated. Fun game play in this as well. it would have been nice if the tutorial moved a bit faster though. And maybe a sort of password system would be nice for returning to this game.
Amazing game
Love this game, controls fuck up every now and then but overall great game :)
Arrrgghhh
Very well done, but this game is infuriatingly frustrating. The controls are hard, but not hard enough that you can't adapt to them. the graphics are superb, with an interesting concept to play to. Just some of the puzzles are insanely hard. It could just be that I'm stupid. Also, the introduction was long enough to reach the point of annoyance. If perhaps you could've added just a skip button, I would've voted this a 9.
But overall, very good game, very challenging.
Only problem I had with it that was:
-Long introduction with no way to speed through it if you've read it before
-Bad controls, with no hints to help you with the stages in which you need both brains and a lot of patience for the random sliding across the stage.
Overall, a hint button would've been nice, but that would've been cheating, wouldn't it? =P Great game though, I'd be more addicted to it, but I just can't seem to get past the Dying Woodland stage.
I've scanned everything I can think of, I've tried pushing everything imaginable, and even attempted to surf the small boulder after sending it flying to get to the rose, but to no avail!! I have been defeated. ._.
Good game
good graphics, good idea, great puzzles, i liked how you had to grab one form use it, to get another, use that to turn the last one off, to win, idk, it was great
