Looks great, a bit disorienting though.
I love the aesthetic of this game! You can see the Limbo inspiration, but it does its own thing with it. Very beautiful and certainly fitting of the "Minimalism" theme.
That was an experience! I love the atmoshpere, and the progression of the music!
Well done.
The limited field of vision, while looking nice, seems disorientating
Rated it. I played it again and I feel as well that the wall jumping mechanic is a bit stiff and difficult to control, but otherwise: Still like it.
Awesome work! Shows "Minimalism" very well!
great stuff, great animations and presentation. The music evolves nicely too. thumbs up.
Waw, that's very different from what I used to play ( of your games i mean ). I cannot say i like it, but i really love the ambiance and the way you made the sound design, great job as usual :D
great stuff, great animations and presentation. The music evolves nicely too. thumbs up.
The visual and the music fit really well with the game. The light radius seem to be a bit too small, it's hard to find the way to go.
Looking not bad, but walljumping is mad =(
Loved the atmosphere, but the wall jump really got me stuck and I just couldn't go any further
Really nice and dark atmosphere. Visuals and music create an awesome mood. It was a bit confusing with the very limited vision though. Great job.
Very nice looking game, the music is nice. A very poetic game. But I couldn't find what I had to do. You deserve the max on graphics and audio.
The game was pretty nice for a while, but then I fell down somewhere and couldn't walljump out... walljumping is super glitchy.
A bit murky looking, the song was nice. Platforming wasn't really fun and I sort of saw the twist coming, but still, a rather cool experience game.
Really inspiring!
Wonderful art and music.
Thanks all for the feedback so far! I enjoyed making the game, as it was something a lot different for me. I've always made music in this style and I thought it would be nice if I made something that went with it. I know the platforming isn't the nicest, heck sometimes I hate it. But I'm not a platformer guy, and I hate physics :P. Spent ages trying to fix collision bugs. For walljumps, just hold space instead of pushing em everytime you hit a wall - it comes out a lot easier.
Excellent sound mood and visuals, well stylized and unique. However for a platforming game (even a minimalist one) the 'camera' is a bit too up-close. Also the Wall-Jump is a bit buggy and inconsistent, every time I think I've gotten the hang of it, it stops working. Still looks and sounds nice though :)
Whoa, that was stunning.
I agree on what most people here say - great atmosphere, but the wall jumping is really tough. I didn't get very far.
Was really great once I got the hang of wall jumping. For everyone having trouble: Try just holding space instead of hitting it every time you touch the wall. It gets a lot easier from there. Great game.
It does run in Wine but without sound unfortunately.
Got stuck a few times but got to the end eventually.
Too hard to control :( As most comments say, a little disorienting, zoom out more. Nice atmosphere.
To me, having the more serious nature of the game in mind, the jumping animation seemed a bit too frantic and -well- jumpy in my opinion, compared to the walking animation.
Also the walljumping frustrated me to the point where I couldn't endure the game any longer. Good job on the graphics and audio, the mechanics need a bit of work though.
I liked the visuals (no comment on the audio, didn't work under Wine), but the control is very difficult when you have to jump against walls.
Wall jump is absolutely obnoxious, I almost quit pretty early on because of how difficult it was to wall jump effectively. Other than that, it was a very good game.
Nice effects and great art!
I thought the silhouette graphic style was great, but I didn't manage to get very far in the game.
Nice music and visuals, but nobody seems to enjoy the walljumping that much. I can see why... :)
The walljumping is very frustrating, but I managed to get to the end of this game - I must say I'm impressed. The final music is really powerful, and the mood is perfect. Great game. I'm downloading the soundtrack!
Nice animation and art direction. The camera is a bit too close for the wall jump.
Really cool game. Good audio and and good mood. You did a great job :)
I didn't finish the game, hate the walljumping system, sorry..
