LUUUUuuuuUUUU!
I've never blundered such a beautiful blunder as thus, thine blunders hath blundered their blunderations straight into my very heart. My head is spinning!
Such trippy visuals, I love em! Cute little character is great too. Spinning around lots of fun until you get dizzy and super lost trying to find the exit. Nice job overall!
Lovely background visuals.
Amazing backgrounds.
Oh lordy it's like a nightmare (NiGHTSmare?) version of those Sonic bonus levels :D Right down to the familiar but somehow wrong wrong wrong music. Enjoyable, good work!
My brain! Really lovely style though!
I'm not sure I got anything out of it other than a sensory trip, but it was enjoyable if just for that.
Got very lost, got very dizzy, and had a cool time! Really like the bright pulsing background. Also the avatar might be the best 2D-sprite-in-a-3D-game ever.
Ya is coo mon! The little dude made me smile. :)
Awesome graphics, it sucked me in.
All the spinning! And boxes!
I love how the world rotates when you collide with objects :D
Interesting. The style is pretty nice. Rotating the level is cool, but it doesn't seem mechanically relevant.
Incredible visuals, pretty cool game, though I did get suuuper dizzy playing it! Nice job
Acid Trip: The Game
You managed to make something very special with very simple things. I really like where you took this. I'm putting this in my "game to plays when I'm high" folder.
great visuals, really was making my head spin.
Cool game! I loved the original style it has, and the colors are great!
One thing that bothered me, was how far zoomed in you were, so you couldn't see the structure of the level very well. But other than that, great work!
Really fun to play with, even making the character spin around is amusing. Great job! :)
"You spin me right round, baby right round" That this game in a nutshell.
I am so dizy!
As a person who enjoys interesting experiences, I liked the game. It looked very nice and the visual cues were interesting once you caught on to them. The use of the theme for beneath the surface was interesting, though I felt it was maybe skimping over it a bit. Also liked the music, though the main theme in the game sounded exactly like the first half of the Sonic the Hedgehog 1 Special Stage theme. Good game, though!
A really interesting experience!! Like others, I like the background and the music is so hypnotic, well done. A nice first participation though it may lack a bit of challenge.
And also, please put a disclaimer that player shouldn't get up from their chair right after playing!!
Really love the aesthetics! Hard mode is tons of fun.
one of the best ones out there! I love it!
DRUGS ! I ove the visuals, the use of theme and the innovation ! Well done !
Neat. I made this almost fullscreen on my 30" panel (by using CTRL+ in firefox to scale up the Unity window). At one point I got the level spinning so fast that it started making me slightly nauseous. Funny but I never had motion sickness before getting an Oculus. It seems like I'm much more susceptible to it now.
Very trippy indeed! My one complaint is the music... I had to mute it within 1 minute of playthrough...
Its a cool idea all around!
The character reminds me of Katamari Damacy, so adorable. XD I was having a good time, then bumped a wall and proceeded to find out I get motion sick easily. Fun little game!
Very dizzy now.
My head is still spinning.
Nice take on those awful spinning mazes!
This is one of the most visually impressive things I've seen so far, but the the gameplay is tame by comparison. :(
beautiful and sickening! It made my head swim!
My head hurts!
Twisted!
So trippy and disorientating! I really love the aesthetics and the copious amounts of spinning :)
A cool concept, though it's a bit nauseating while you play it.
I love this, I get a score of one and I am happy to spin forever. Nailed the music.
Dat was a trippy ride.
Weeeird but awesome at the same time xD. Amazing experience.
Interesting concept and visuals. And now, if you'll excuse me... *faints from dizziness*
Getting a Fez vibe from this. Very nice :D
cool
So much colors! It's fun but I can't get past the red maze! What do those yellow glowing cubes do?
Too much fun, I literally, figuratively died. Nice work!
Played trough the easy mode, and thought that the game would be much more interesting if the ball had huge inertia. Good thing I also tried hard mode! So much better (even though it took me 10 minutes 50 seconds to pass the first "layer" :D). After the initial relaxation I did get somewhat bored though.

The idea is very innovative!!! With a little dizzy @o@ Nice try!
this was alot of fun "hard mode" should just be the only mode because its waaay more fun to play like that. i would have kept playing longer if it were easier to find all the orbs maybe smaller stages but i played for like 15 minutes and only beat one level. i love watching the world spin around me and my little planet! really cool
I love the details of the game. The background is deep and colorful, and the transformations makes it even better. It's also surprising that I can see the next level in the background, maybe I should remember it (but it's too difficult).
lov ethe gfx/music .. i kep thinking it should have rotated so the guy was on top with the block underneath tho?! .anyhoot good job :)
I was like, yeah I got this! then I bumped into a wall and the whole thing started rotating haha! good job!
Protip: Play while drunk.
Ohh my!
This is beyond freaky graphics.
The play well with the gameplay.
The little man is awesome!
hoo...that made me real dizzy real fast
The music gets quite repetitive after a while.
Woah motion sickness... couldn't really figure out the point of the game but it looks pretty neat.
SENSORY OVERLOAD O__O
Awesome.
Very creative controls
The background scenario is absolutely stunning
I don't usually get motion sickness, but this was really hard to watch at times :D
(When not spinning) I loved the colorful visuals and seeing the next level beneath me. The music fits in with the overall mood really well to. Good job!
Fantastic visuals..... very immersive and cool... i like of the absortion of the theme and all work,,,, great!!!
The concept is really unique, but now I know how John Romero feels: I've never gotten so motion-sick from a game in my life.
Warning do not play drunk! Lol. I really did start to feel a bit sick when the room was spinning so fast.
I like what I see here, but it's not super addicting yet. I can wander about and get the room to spin and occasionally I see glowing orange cubes that I can pick up, but it doesn't seem like there's much point to it, nor any real danger or challenge to it. But the visuals are amazing and I don't think I've ever played a game that has looked or felt like this. Motion sickness will limit how much I can get addicted to a game like this, but if you instill a compelling goal and an appropriate challenge curve, this could really take off.
Wow, my eyes X_X
It was an awesome experience :), it reminds me of Sonic 1 bonus levels
The background when you're on the higher levels is so entrancing! I made it all the way through (well, on Easy mode anyway). Great job, especially for your first LD!
OK, A for effort, and very different, very polished, and I do like it, but there are a few things that felt like really core mistakes to me:
1. The whole spinning thing, while novel, makes no sense. I have no idea why I'm spinning - the trigger to the spin and the spin doesn't make sense. How I stop the spinning also makes no sense. as "cool" as the spinning is, it felt shoehorned. It does nothing but hamper my memory of where the heck I was going.
2. Navigation. I have no idea where I'm going - if there was any way of navigation I missed it. Add the spinning to that and you felt like you're perpetually - exactly - going in circles.
3. Agency - the two previous points make me feel like I have no control over the game and my actions. I don't know where I'm going, I don't know how to "get better" besides going slower. Which just produces a really slow and frustrating maze.
So if you can address the above concerns, the core mechanics can actually work. I feel like the player needs to be given more to work with (some kind of direction to go), and I feel there needs to be more reason for the spinning or something about the spinning that makes sense, or is controllable.
Sorry if the above sounds harsh, but I really liked your game and I'd love to see it improve :)
Cheers!
Interesting take on a maze game and nice visuals. Movement needs work and rotating the level was disorienting and confusing. Nice ending.
I really like how you've layered the different levels. Great game!
I really like the concept of this! Mainly because I like innovative games and secondly just cause it really reminds me mine entry a lot ;-) But it lacks some challenge -- like something what makes the game more replay-able or just enjoyable. Also the camera is just too close to main hero in my opinion. All in all it's very good job for your first entry overall ;-)
