Check the win screen, there's a broken material on the particles!

(Longer feedback comment when the compo is over :) Work, work.)

Your shadows should be set to stable fit.

178 first try. (smug)
Game is a bit big for my window, and the acceleration feels a bit odd. Other than that, nice game.

Thanks for the comments :)
Zephyr: I have the shadows set to stable fit, I think it's to do with the shadows cast by cutout diffuse shaders on the transparent textures.
I should of scaled the window down, your right. The windows build lets you select the resolution if need be.

This game is beautiful. Very nice for being done in less than 24 hours.

I like it! Good Graphs!

loren 2013-08-26 04:58

very nice look and feel, dig the color palette :)

nice visual presentation! it'd be awesome to know how many more wisps I can miss before I fail

I didn't quite understand the point in the heart beating and the audio for it was a bit rough on my ears, Visually stunning I loved your graphics, however the audio didnt match at all. Movement was a bit strange.

Really impressive stuff for 24 hours' work. Nicely done!

The play area is larger than my screen will allow (1440x900), but I was able to get 81 wisps.

I thought the game was a little Difficult to understand fully. But I enjoyed playing it. Good Game!

124! A valiant effort indeed.

The gameplay is nice. The wisp feels a little bit hard to control at first, but that gets better after playing a little - and I guess it might've been to easy if you had really crisp controls.

The presentation looks good, everything from the environment to lights and the wisp itself fits well together.

A bit of music wouldn't have hurt; if you can't do it yourself, have a look at generators like http://abundant-music.com!

All in all, a pretty good job! And congratulations on finishing your first LD! (Even more so in such a short timeframe.)

tobiasw 2013-08-26 13:58

Oh, and yeah, it would've been nice to know how many you can still miss.

I love the atmosphere, the ambiance is really nice! I enjoyed playing this game. I like how subtle the theme is :)

sengi 2013-08-29 17:44

Great graphics! The atmosphere is great! It would sound more!

dudsen 2013-08-29 20:30

Nice concept and crazy good work for 24 hours! Some more sounds would make it twice as good instantly for sure.

xrm0 2013-08-29 20:35

Looks very good

tortche 2013-09-13 23:48

Thanks for your comments everyone! After the judging ends I might try to polish this up - redo controls, sound, add some music, maybe even re-write the premise of the game so it actually makes sense (which is why you leave that sort of stuff to the morning).

Stunning presentation and polish for 48 hour compo - congrats!!
