cant get past first little section

monomanio 2012-08-27 02:11

Did u hold space? :) Putting controls in the description now.

discofish 2012-08-27 11:24

Amazing art style! But bad control.

thewiseguy99 2012-08-27 22:42

Definitely a different look and feel, which I liked. Controls were difficult however and I couldn't get past the first bit either... Too bad cos I think it has potential. Nice sound effects!

Very nice! I pressed the button, not quite sure if I lost or won...
Great job on building a mood, amazing what a few dripping sounds does :)

The jumping mechanic for the two platforms ... I have no skills, I can't seem to get past it.

Really cool game. Great art-style, atmosphere and good gameplay. Barely matched the theme, but cool as a prototype. Would like to see where you can go with it, if there is more time.

I really like the atmosphere of your game. The mechanic is also pretty interesting. Especially for the style of game you're making. I just thought, "GLaDOS!" When I was reading the text! Pretty cool. I can't really complain, for a game made in 15 hours. Bravo!

I really enjoyed the game. Great style.

I want to try this, but the web version is ultra slow, and the downloadable version says it has stopped working, when I try to run it.

amidos2006 2012-08-30 11:01

Thats incredible :)

Very nice game. Visual style feels completely thought out and polished. Suitably hard puzzles, but nice quick pacing from one stage to another. This would definitely be very interesting as a more complete game.

Your graphics style was excellent!, and your sound sounded professional, the controls were a little hard for me.

krasse 2012-08-31 14:44

Very nice game!
It turned pitch black after pushing that red button though...
Cool game mechanics, graphics and mood.

monomanio 2012-08-31 21:35

Thanks for the comments! And yeah, when the screen suddenly goes black, you have reached the end of the game. The last part was done during the few last hours before the deadline so, my apologies for that!

sience 2012-08-31 21:38

The first part, the continous up and down makes me crazy ;). But your Art Style is rare and the sound is clear and athmospheric. I think i need to take a closer look at Construct2.

thx for your game.

dector 2012-08-31 22:04

Great game. Like its atmosphere.

cobrajs 2012-09-01 01:48

Fantastically moody game. I really liked the style of the graphics, and the sound fit it well too. The ending was kind of anticlimactic , though. Still great.

goffmog 2012-09-01 12:23

Really liked the art style and sound - please make it into a longer game! the jumping mechanics after you're evolved are excellent, I was afraid I was going to find that bit too hard when I realized how to get past it but the little guy responded exactly as I thought he should have, well done for paying attention to gameplay

tau7153 2012-09-01 20:51

Really, amazing game! Great atmosphere, sound and story. Probably, overall, the best game I've played so far. However, there were some issues, such as the game auto jumping constantly while being a pixel and the rate of firing in the second stage. Very good, despite this!

gregdevice 2012-09-02 07:00

Nice work. Loved the atmosphere and story line.

sev_inf 2012-09-03 18:07

Wow! Amazing, but too short game. Perfect sound.

starmen 2012-09-03 20:37

God this is pretty. Really, really love your art style. I love it so much.

pekuja 2012-09-04 15:40

Great entry. A bit short, but was interesting to play around with. The beginning of the game has an interesting mechanic that I haven't seen before. Would be interesting to see a longer version of this, if you think that's feasible.

gritfish 2012-09-06 12:15

The final jumping/freezing puzzle was VERY hard, until I realised I only had to jump on top of the pixel gun and ride it up.
The drips got a little repetitive, and the pipe sound was really loud compared with the background sounds.

Really clever, well executed puzzle mechanic and graphics.

davidemo89 2012-09-17 18:39

very cool =) sound tooo tooo too high

threef 2012-09-17 19:16

Why did you submit it to Compo??? You should finish that game as Jam entry! I love sounds, and graphics but overall it's average game. :/

goerp 2012-09-17 20:01

The graphics are so good looking and moody, I love them. The water drops are musical. Some good puzzles there as well. The controls were not so good, so after a while it got frustrating. But getting everything right in 48 hours is almost impossible (for me 72 hours was waaaay to short).

alexandervrs 2012-09-17 23:09

It was pretty stylish. :) And diverse gameplay too, now it needs more content.

alwaysinbeta 2012-09-17 23:17

Love the graphics and sound but found the controls very tricky to manage. Nice touch where the pixels help you climb up.

nate427 2012-09-18 00:45

Really nice mood and graphics, although it didn't fit the theme too well.
