I love the way it looks. I didn't feel think there was all that much survival or horror though. I found the win condition by luck.

Thanks for playing. I tried to make it so the enemies would herd you toward the end instead of having an obvious sign, but I don't know how successful I was.

Nice work on the graphics! I like how half the objects merge with the background, and the other half with the rocks.

Don't forget to upload the source, so it actually counts to the competition :P

Really lovely feeling! #1 atmosphere so far. Fits the theme perfectly. The only thing maybe missing is some chill background music.

Very atmospheric. You could probably extend this to a longer experience...there was one point I thought one of the rocks was going to turn into an enemy, which would have been cool.

The guidance towards the end is subtle, but I think it's there.

Love the graphical look. The grayscale reflections in the water was a really nice touch.

This is gorgeous. I feel you could have maybe done a bit more with the audio though; what's there is really well done, but unless you're close to the *things*, the game's basically silent.

Very fun feel and nice graphics. Kinda spooky and etherial. Wish I had a little more direction, but great job.

I won!

I don't really understand what you're supposed to do, but it had a great "feel" to it--minimalist all the way! :)

Very excellent graphics. I admit, I didn't find the win condition - in fact I thought the goal was to collect those cloudy shadow-things at first. It has a nice mood to it, definitely one of those titles that gives you just enough 'game' to promote curiosity.

Very well done visuals! The baddies are pretty creepy!

I played the game without read the description, and I got immerged from the beginning.
These shadows are frightening, cool effects by the way. I didn't found how to win.
The white particles cannot be seen if there is no rock behind, it introduces an interesting
mechanic (like hidden in white 'shadows') but I didn't figured how they can be used for.
Cool experience anyway !

<3 the art. really inspiring.

linuus 2013-04-30 17:07

Lovely graphics! :)

Great mood, didn't manage to find the survival/horror elements though - it reminded me a bit of Proteus, ie. a contemplative game. Loved the graphic style. Nicely done!

The soundtrack wasn't very fitting. The atmospheric graphics were awesome though.

namuol 2013-05-01 13:11

Any way to build a Linux version? This looks great but I can't play it. :[

rustybroomhandle 2013-05-01 13:12

Those are petty dang scary ghost-things. Good job on atmosphere and use of (no) colour. :)

adfp 2013-05-01 13:38

Thanks everyone for playing and rating. If there's enough interest, I'd love to develop Moiety further. Linux and OSX builds are now up, so thanks to namuol for the hint.

Good luck to all of you in the competition!

Very mysterious. Obviously the mood is one of the strong part of the game. I didn't really feel like in a survival horror because the game is pretty soft and quiet. Except for the feeling of loneliness. Made me more feel like a conceptual puzzle atmosphere. Very good work!

saintheiser 2013-05-02 10:32

Design is looking awesome!
But I can't understand gameplay. Just survive?

bbrown2 2013-05-02 15:00

Very nice, it's a bit hard to follow the white entities with the predominantly white background, but maybe that's an intentional part of the challenge.

tanius 2013-05-03 14:24

Sort of creepy and minimal, it is a strange experience. But i really like it, congrats.

lotusgame 2013-05-03 14:24

Beautiful and myterious :)

ataxkt 2013-05-03 14:38

Sorry, I had no idea what to do, and I didn't really get that the evil guys were evil. Everything looked white peaceful in white, with the sound off you simply don't know its meant to be scary! Looks very nice though.

broxxar 2013-05-07 15:58

Ohohoho shivers down my spine once or twice. Would be even better if the spectres were a little bit more menacing/quicker.

minionstudios 2013-05-07 15:59

Great work! I love all of the elements and the sense of mystery and weirdness is excellent!

detocroix 2013-05-07 16:08

Nice effect with the silhuettes of the shadow people :)

martin_monosys 2013-05-08 21:17

Liked the look and the sound, not so much the gameplay... still, the mood is impressive!

joe40001 2013-05-08 22:54

Really clever graphics and nice work on theme.
