Pushing the ball around made me lol

loved the vector style trees!
Would be nice to see a more consistent art style throughout the game though, as the trees compared to other parts of the game looked a little out of place

Very cute concept! Trees are beautiful.

Nice entry... didn't really understand what i was doing but had a nice time wandering around. Good job for putting in multi-player!

This control is to difficult! Ctrl is too far of enter, and enter is a bad choice to use with button.
The game is a little confused and I didn't get how complete the missions :/
BUT, I like to play football :)

Does this game have an ending? I had 100% but the game didn't finish. I didn't read the missions I just ran around in a circle talking to everyone which finished all missions eventually.

@kaa: The trees were made in blender. They are simply a combination of a shape called icosahedron and a cylinder.

@hoythoy: (R)Ctrl and Enter are really close on my keyboard, there's just a shift between them. To complete missions, talk to all the characters. They will tell you what to do.

@Kayelgee: There's no ending, mostly because lack of time.

Nice and innovative, although there were some bugs (a dude turning around all the time and I was sliding down all the time), also no sound in the game :(
But I like the graphics and the icospheres you used for trees! :D

The gameplay is a bit one dimensional and an ending screen would have made it a bit more round. But still, nice work.

it would be nice to have an indication of where your current mission goals are - like direction markers at the edge of the window, or something. also some audio would make a lot of difference. good work overall though :)

@Tosic: The physics are standard unity. Either they don't work properly or I don't know how to use them.

@Dry Tree: We did not place markers on purpose, exploring is part of the fun!

Good idea with the multi-player!
The graphics looks inconsistent and some (walk) animations would be great ;-)
But a nice starting point for a real game!

Super cool! I dug this one.

oh yeah, meant to say, I can't believe no one's commented on the tardis. I wanted to get in that thing so bad!
