was interesting, but really really short

Really cool concept. Enjoyed the graphics and the overall polish of the game.

Great graphics! Played through it all! A mellow mood was excellently set.

Great job, nice animations and art.

Unity web player worked fine for me.

The graphical tone, music, and glow effect of the orb gave a very nice mysterious atmosphere. I wanted to keep playing, hoping there was some underlying story connecting things (i.e. what does the orb mean, and why a mailbox?).

Movements and controls were nice and tight. There wasn't much gameplay, but that didn't stop me from enjoying what there was.

I did not really get what was going on, but it ddefinitely was interesting and looked great.

This ended way sooner than I wanted - it seems like there's way more to the story than presented here, and playing it makes me want to find out what it is. Great visuals/ animation - sets the mood perfectly. Awesome work!

Very lovely game, especially the main character. The animation is great for such a short development time! It was over pretty quickly, but I enjoyed the atmosphere!

Really well done! I wanted to see more of how the mechanics would evolve and get harder ^_^ maybe we'll see a full fledged version ;)

Thanks for the comments! I made a whole system for the held objects and interaction and planned a bunch more puzzles, but had to cut most of it for the sake of finishing at all. I will definitely do a post-competition update and just make a bunch more levels.

nice and short puzzle game, awesome models and animations. that's a pretty creepy dream-like setting, not sure if it's meant to be soothing or unnerving, maybe the girl is dead and moving around in limbo? perhaps the orbs are lost souls? excellent stuff for 48 hours.

At first I thought it was the camera that changed, because the areas are too similar, then I got it :P Also I really like the concept of the mailbox as a teleporting device :D

mactinite 2014-08-27 05:56

Well now you've piqued my curiosity. I love the art, has a kind of Double Fine feel to it. Anyways, great work.

xenosns 2014-08-27 22:55

Sweet! Looks great, liked the animation of the girl. Simple mechanics, be interesting to see how those could be developed further. Game gave me a "Neverending Story" feel for some reason.

mase 2014-08-28 03:12

The sound effects are too electronic. I don't think they fit the setting.

The models are very nice though and I like the magic mailbox idea.

atgaubatz 2014-08-28 03:43

Love the feel of this game!

andrewshouldice 2014-08-28 12:02

Serene, surreal. Best character work there is in LD.

The rules of this world intrigue me; I want to hang out here more! Post-compo version please!

leafarz 2014-08-29 17:01

neat visuals you have here especially the animations! pretty eerie atmosphere also.
the concept is really cool!
great job!

Fabulous animation!

aske 2014-08-30 21:19

These graphics and animation are REALLY good ! Keep up the amazing work!

emotiontheory 2014-08-30 21:19

Amazing game, great audio + visual experience. A delight to explore and uncover. Cheers :)

spotco 2014-09-02 04:56

Really impressive character animations for such a short time, hope this gets worked into something bigger!

tacospice 2014-09-08 13:34

Pretty nice graphics, though the colors could be a little more vibrant maybe. Not very difficult. Nice background music.

teejay5 2014-09-11 08:04

Really nice animation! I got this really interesting dream-like vibe from the style of the game. I didn't know what was going on at first, but I did manage to figure it out decently without instruction.
Like Steve | tacospice here said, I do agree that you should play with the colors a bit more, the game still looks really good! also, cute character :D
