Tried to run it but said it needed MSVCR120.dll. I'm on windows 7 ultimate

Doesn't work for me, getting a error about a missing MSVCR120.dll <_< (Windows 7 64 bit)

In terms of mood and aesthetics it's superb but like you said it really lacks gameplay.

For you who get the error about msvcr120.dll, install vs2013 redist: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784 (not sure if you need x86 or x64, depends on the game)

(I played 1.1) Really nice visuals, the wood texture on the boat, and the boat model itself was really nice. Though as others said it lacked gameplay.

Good feelings from this

Wow. Graphics and sound are excellent.
Good luck with next LD. It's enough time to practice game and project planning (something I need to do myself)

Nice sound graphics and mood but that's more a visual experience than a game it needs some gameplay ! ;)

Thanks for the feedback and for submitting the .dll fix!
The initial idea was to make an atmospheric puzzle game/experience. Movement and base mechanics/systems got in and so did a subset the visuals but actual puzzle implementation did not. Just ran out of time to add enough substance, there is always the next LD then.

no idea how to play it, can't find any .exe

WoOoww! Impressive graphic and atmosphere

Mood and graphics are fantastic! Quite impressive and disturbing atmosphere coming from those inductors.

Hey, I can't play this since it's Windows-only, but I just wanted to say how immensely cool those screenshots look!

xgor 2014-08-27 19:13

It has amazing atmosphere, but not much of an game.
