Awesome looking game! Fun to play.

The graphics and sound were amazing. And I love love love the edge-grab mechanic, so cool! It really adds that extra little "kick" to it :)

The building distances being different were a little confusing and it was kind of hard to tell which ones were which, but a fantastic entry! Definitely one of my favorites so far :)

This is so beautiful, awesome work :)

I really love the musics overall !! (The mood was cool too) The gameplay was a little rigid

stvr 2013-12-17 05:58

Created a white, large window and then instantly crashed. Win7 64-bit. The screenshots look pretty though!

Loved it. Have to admit, I'm a sucker for exploration platformers and your game scratched that it. Excellent game, and I'm impressed with the amount of content.

afterisk 2013-12-17 06:11

Excellent aesthetics and the environment was much bigger than I thought it would be!

almightysuit 2013-12-17 06:11

@stvr & others who have crashes - there's an "app.log" file created when the game runs, if you have problems, please send it to us! (pasting a link to a https://gist.github.com/ is fine!)

Doesn't work for me. Glitches out early on. Nice music.

mrtedders 2013-12-17 06:58

wow that was a great platformer. I haven't played anything like this in a while. Great job on the art and sound by the way.

angelk 2013-12-17 07:04

That's quite a large environment! I'm pretty amazed how much graphic and audio content you two were able to pull off.

This is beautiful. I don't know why I felt the compulsion to give all those lazy people what they want. It was maddening after going through the mushroom caves, though! I could either take a wheel or a football with me and I chose the wheel, and the first person I saw asked for the ball! :D Nice graphics, nice overall quality; but what is the connection to the theme? You only carry one item is it?

carrymove 2013-12-17 07:07

Atmospheric!

Couldn't get the game to run properly on Ubuntu. It started, but I couldn't get anything to happen.

mr-cassels 2013-12-17 07:14

I got stuck faily early on, but It seemed like a nice game.
I appreceate haveing a linux download, and am hanging on to the game to try again later.

The game is so beautiful, and the music is awesome. The gameplay is great, and responsive. The only thing lacking is captivating level design, but that takes time, and user testing, so it's understandable that the game doesn't feel super complete in that regard.

lissar 2013-12-17 07:20

Lovely exploration game! (My favorite kind of game). The music felt a bit at odds with the rest of the game though. It was a bit too hectic when I think something more atmospheric would have worked better.

chabuduo 2013-12-17 07:33

Amazing really enjoyed it. nice subtle finish. awesome music and atmosphere . earth's gravity out of 10 !

kewry 2013-12-17 12:21

Amazing game dude!

ninjacharlie 2013-12-17 15:37

Really great game. I liked the graphics, music, and how much polish the game had. The only issue I had was that the NPCs had colliders on them. I understand that the key guy needed it, but the other characters sometimes made the platforming a little awkward. Other than that, it was one of my favorite games I've played for this LD :D

My first impression on the game :3 unfortenetly it was lagging badly because of the streaming app (I tried again without the streaming and it was fine resting at 60fps all the time.)

raphy 2013-12-17 19:17

Great music and mood, impressive amount of content, well done. Gameplay felt kindda repetitive though.

dmitrix 2013-12-18 07:37

I do like the music. :)

bitserum 2013-12-18 07:43

Awesome game. Really nice soundtrack and visual style. My personal favorite so far.

grifdail 2013-12-18 10:36

Amazing work ! Favorite so far !

moop 2013-12-18 18:58

Fun gameplay, consistent graphical style and nice music.

stvr 2013-12-18 23:58

Hope this helps!

Hey stvr - the game requires OpenGL 3.0 to runfor now - terribly sorry, some Intel Chipset graphics just won't work :( I don't have a graphics card old enough to try and add support for that - for now!

roguenoodle 2013-12-19 01:07

Super impressive entry - really interested to see where you take this post-jam :) That soundtrack is incredible!

mcapraro 2013-12-19 01:21

really nice graphics. i lied the game play although the controls felt a little rough at time. i could see some dialog making this even more rich

jlauener 2013-12-19 12:33

Best game I played so far mood-wise :)

withoutpillow 2013-12-19 14:34

fantastic music and graphics! gameplay reminded me of knytt. fun, good controls, oh -- and edge-grabbing! overall good design, but some of the back-tracking became kind of frustrating. did i mention how good the soundtrack is?

one of the best games i've played so far.

ismyhc 2013-12-19 18:00

Very cool! I love the mood this game brings as well as the graphics and art style. Curious what language/framework was used to build this?

lasergans 2013-12-19 21:40

Awesome game, really feels polished. Looking forward for the post LD versions! :)

almightysuit 2013-12-20 00:43

@ismyhc all the info about the language/framework/tools used to build the game is available in the postmortem: http://amos.me/blog/2013/lestac-the-making-of/ !

mrjordan 2013-12-21 02:45

Nice graphics! The audio was killer, too. I actually couldn't figure out what to do after the gun that knocks you back, but I could tell this is a quality engine. The screenshots of later areas look promising.

ViliX 2013-12-21 18:36

5/5 for great graphic design! :)

psychomonster 2013-12-22 02:37

Great unique style. Made me feel connected with the character. Music is awesome. I Love it!

smirnov48 2013-12-22 20:06

Music is awesome. Game have a very sad mood. Very depressing and hopeless world. Great work!

potomak 2013-12-26 10:44

I really like music! Nice game.

01101101 2013-12-27 11:06

Nice work! Lots of content, cool art style and really great soundtrack!

gazok 2013-12-27 19:25

Really nice graphics, music and atmosphere. The level design was very well thought out and expansive, given the time-limit. Unfortunately, "Fetch Quest Platformer #7" wasn't fun the first time.

lordjosephdeburg 2014-01-02 19:31

Its hard to make a good platformer, but this is definitely one of them! Very nice music too. Theres nothing I can really fault here this is a great entry 5 stars almighty great Jam
