Cool Graphics

An pretty interesting journey, good job. ^^

This game is amazing! The platforming's smooth, the art cool and the story awesome!

I really like the journey and the commentary as you progress through the game. Pretty solid work here.

corofides 2013-04-29 12:29

That was cool. Neat little story and game. I loved the bit at the beginning when you could only move in one direction. Really made it seem just that little bit more challenging.

lfpetrini 2013-04-29 12:33

Nice job, kept me playing until the end. The only thing I would change is the delay of some dialogs, some of them changed too quickly.

richy486 2013-04-29 13:04

Loved the story, wish I could give more stars for it

Good graphics and music

ragzouken 2013-04-29 13:59

The music is great! I really liked the story too :)

mostley 2013-04-29 14:06

love it! Reminded me a bit of Knytt.

Really great entry, unfortunately I couldn't get the sound to play on Linux with wine, not sure if it's a bug with wine or whatever... Everything else is great, pretty good entry, one of my favorite.

I really like the music that plays in the caves.

Lovely little story and lovely little pixel art. Woof :)

I think i am a big fan of the platformer + narrator genre. The platforming was well done and the game feels complete. Great job!

bradleysmith 2013-04-29 15:01

Really awesome, excellent work for 48 hours!

edocentrique 2013-04-29 15:07

Nice animation and story telling, levels chained well, text is always visible, all good :)

nseward 2013-04-29 15:42

Very cool experience. It kept my attention. Music was super good.

Loved it! First Ludumdare game I've played today that I got stuck on and "had" to finish! The ending was perfect as well. :)

tombofry 2013-04-29 22:06

Favourite game so far - Many others are far more advanced (ie. 3D, randomly generated, etc) but this is perfect!

joror 2013-04-29 22:08

A nice little complete game, no part of it felt underdeveloped. Quite a feat for a ludum dare game!

alanbazan 2013-04-29 22:08

Awesome journey!!!

sonnybone 2013-04-29 22:08

Great story! The game looks and plays very smoothly, and you nailed the theme. Nice use of color to go along with the progression of the character's thoughts!

farmergnome 2013-04-29 22:09

Need more stars! This is great.

markavian 2013-04-29 22:09

That was beautiful.

gilmore606 2013-04-29 22:10

Honestly I wanted to dislike this as an arty platformer with a long unskippable intro, but...I smiled at the end. Really nice minimalist work.

somenetworkguy 2013-04-29 22:15

Wow, genius dude! I enjoyed the story very much.

ludipe 2013-04-29 22:23

WOW, amazing game. I think it was a bit easy but the story kept me playing, I couldn't stop until it was finished. During the first part I was thinking:"Come on Edward, you have your family and your dog, don't go away!!! :( "

Good job!

hyakutaro 2013-04-29 23:19

I didn't expected something that good.

Really charming.

geepit 2013-04-30 00:40

Thanks for the really nice words guys!
Glad people are enjoying it :)

j0n 2013-04-30 14:47

Very cool game, loved every second. Good challenge and great story as well.

qdowngames 2013-04-30 20:00

Well that was a story indeed! Not particularly complex gameplay mechanics, but more story-based.

tifu 2013-04-30 22:02

Pretty nice relaxing experience, I thought the first part was more interesting than the rest - as being unable to go left has a weird disorienting feeling, which I was really enjoying, and hoped would continue (like... if jump had been disabled at the bottom of the cave or something). Good job.

psychomonster 2013-04-30 23:30

It is one of my favorite games here at ludum dare 26 ... cool artwork... very atmospheric... cool sound... nice story... yep i will play this game again some time

crazi456 2013-05-01 06:37

Fits theme perfectly, was very relaxing!

blizzil 2013-05-02 19:20

Really liked the story and graphics, the gameplay at the start was a clever idea too. Did not liked the music that much, but overall I enjoyed playing it!

lightnarcissus 2013-05-15 13:14

Nice philosophical theme and I think the gameplay does complement that.

benjamin-soule 2013-05-16 15:28

Good story, great intro and top mood mark, but seriously...*SPOILER ALERT* What have you done Edward ? You could have been a super hero, learn to double jump and throw fireballs instead of coming back to your wife and kids... What have you done ?! At least leave with the dog next time, It would have made some fun gameplay to get him out of the cave

minionstudios 2013-05-18 15:14

Fun and heart-warming. Kinda

lorancou 2013-05-18 18:15

So this is your first jam-game? o_0 Wow! Impressive! You've created a lot of levels and you tied them very well with the narration, very good work.
