Really nice music and art.

I love the drawings!

Like the music, and the hand drawn actually adds a bit to the charm of the game. Also, I'm always a fan of picture-taking gameplay.

Great audio and art. I wouldn't have beaten it without the guide. The fruit/bird was tricky even with the guide. Pretty calming game.

So weird and charming! Good graphics and mood. Remember to rate other games to receive a score!

Nice style :)

A charming game, like the music and the different variations of it, the whole photo mechanic is satisfying and reminds me of pokemon snap.

I like the hand drawn art aspect. The music did get on my nerves after a while.

I enjoyed exploring the worlds and seeing what kind of changes came about when I connected them. Nice job!

It was pretty tricky to figure out though, especially the toucan.

Pretty fun point and click adventure. I enjoyed the photography concept and I really liked the hand drawn art style. Platforming elements need some working on however (it was hard to see where I was aiming the grappling hook although to be fair, it didn't really gel well to the overall gameplay experience).

Thanks to all for your kinds comments! I would have never thought people would like it so much!

@Nooner Bear
The music was made really quickly before the deadline, so it is normal, I suppose.

@Xanjos
The platformer parts were done something like 5 minutes before the deadline. I am not satisfied as well. I added them to reinforce the "connection" part of the theme, but I haven't had time to finish. I was also obliged to duplicate them instead of making four separate levels :'(

This is bonkers.

I never did find the snow hare.

I like the collecting element of game, but the thing with robot is a little bit clunky for me. Either the levels for robot to go throught should be a little bit different and more challangind every time or there should be some new mechanic, like digging stuff, or moving something somewhere or connecting something.
Overall the art and music is good and finding ways to take a picture of animals is definitelly satisfying. Although I could figure out what to do with that piece of ice (or what is it) that appeared in the middle world when I connected it with the right one.

I like this entry. I dropped the fun score a little because you should not need a guide to play through a game made in 72 hours. I noticed something was odd, but never would have thought to use the apple like that. The music was perfect for the mood you were setting. I was sad that the planets didn't actually get to the point of hugging each other :)

Charming game !

I like the hand-drawn art, but it's hard to figure out what to do in the very beginning.

elefantopia 2014-09-11 03:22

Good artwork!

njord 2014-09-11 06:15

I really loved this. The graphics and the audio are neat, the idea is fun and original, and it's really cute, really relaxing. Awesome work !

fisholith 2014-09-14 06:33

Cool game, I love the photo mechanic, and the artwork. :D
Took me a while to figure out how to connect the worlds, but I like how they alter each other.
Keep up the good work. :)

hypnohustla 2014-09-14 16:41

Beautiful graphics. Hard to understand at first but it was very interesting nevertheless :)

sephyka 2014-09-14 19:12

Charming and moody game. Very pleasant to play with!

porglezomp 2014-09-15 03:55

Great game! You need some better ingame instructions, and the connecting the roots feels a bit broken/repetive. Still fun!

igoramendola 2014-09-15 06:39

Cool! The gameplay is really innovative. Also, the game has nice graphics and good music. Very nice work :)
