Why you no mac?

mechabit 2014-08-25 23:37

Amazing amount of work for a jam game

ossi 2014-08-25 23:41

Great atmosphere and really eerie sound effects, it really set the mood. Good use of lighting with the very flat colors of the environment made the environment feel very ancient. I did however get stuck for some time on the second portal, I couldn't find where to go to make it to the next orb activation thing. Well done!

this looks really cool, but chrome is saying the file is malicious

allchimik 2014-08-25 23:52

Adrew Adams:
Mac version added.

Miziziziz:
It's seems to be a problem between dropbox and Chrome, try with Firefox or Explorer or this link (http://www.emedion.com/downloads/Cablage.zip)

Very good looking game but very un-optomized. I was left wanting more at the end and it ended so abruptly. I thought I was going to learn something about why I was there and what those pulsing black balls were but was dissapointed.

Ossi:
Observing and listening can help, as well as the symmetry

i see it's an unity game, can you make a linux build?

allchimik 2014-08-26 00:00

dkkarate:
The project was a little too ambitious for a jam, it's just the first hall, and 1/4 of the original concept. I wanted to have a dozen teleporters in the ruins, a desert and a huge tower. But time has allowed me only to make the introduction...

As people have said, it sets a fantastic mood. Eerie sound effects that sound like digitalised gregorian chant in slow motion. Plus the stylised graphics and lighting, which are quite impressive I imagine for a mere three days work.

I don't confess to really get its purpose, and more would be better, but it is really immersive regardless and certainly gets top marks for mood.

Great atmosphere. Love the architecture.

jm-dg 2014-08-26 00:41

Wow! Great atmosphere superb graphic.
Really like exploring and contemplating the complex structures. 10/10

miziziziz 2014-08-26 00:56

@Allchimik, I donwloaded the zip from that other link you gave, and winrar is giving me an "unexpected end of archive" error

jayhof 2014-08-26 01:16

Amazing models, the eerie music fits perfectly. Great work!

allchimik 2014-08-26 02:10

All:
Thanks for your comments :-)

Miziziziz:
Another & last link (http://dl.free.fr/lXH8pfwNl), if it don't work remove Chrome & try Firefox...

nerd-burglars 2014-08-26 02:40

Very fun!

rock48 2014-08-26 02:40

Pretty neat, but I fail to see how it ties into the theme

raincoven 2014-08-26 02:43

Excellent looks and played!
The only bad thing that it lagging on may macbook pro 2013. Looks like my laptop is outdated for 3d games=)

shadowstryker 2014-08-26 02:44

Definitely set an eerie mood for the game. Slightly laggy at the beginning when looking down the hallway but it clears up afterwards. Game definitely has potential with the storyline you could plan out.

sigfig 2014-08-26 02:52

Very moody, great work on the vertex lighting

2014-08-26 04:19

This looks literally just like Naissancee a french indie game.

allchimik 2014-08-26 11:49

Willza:
Yes, NaissanceE is my main source of inspiration for the visual and ambiance.

dickpoelen 2014-08-26 14:42

That looks amazing!

saintheiser 2014-08-26 16:59

Wow! It's fanatasctic atmosphere. Very scary and thrill =)
It might be good exploaration 3D game.

techblogogy 2014-08-26 18:09

This is really good game

kyyrma 2014-08-26 18:12

This is one of the most visually interesting games I've played this year, including both indies and AAA titles. This also made me want to look up Naissancee to see the source of inspiration.

You've done a great job building this gorgeous geometry in just 72 hours, I guess the trick was reusing objects like the pillars etc.?

frump 2014-08-26 23:48

Really effective use of primitive shapes and lighting to make an interesting space. I enjoyed exploring it.

hyoga-3d 2014-08-27 09:57

The art is not finished, but reminds me of Bioshock.

simplexcity 2014-08-27 10:18

awesome brutal. reminded me heaps of NaissanceE

mtrc 2014-08-27 14:52

Very atmospheric - a little laggy on my machine, could be the lighting not being optimised, I don't know? I enjoyed running around and poking at things. I didn't manage to finish it but the atmosphere was very nice to immerse in.

arzi 2014-08-27 15:00

Reminds me of Moria in the LoTR movies. Nice work on the level design (though it was a big laggy on my Mac Book Pro, in 1024x768 windowed).

mechanicmoon 2014-08-27 17:05

The scenarios and graphics I liked a lot, but it have little fps

yodamaster 2014-08-27 22:37

Great atmosfear!

kevinzuhn 2014-08-27 22:42

Wow, that atmosphere really worked on me, I felt like I had to finish it even when I was lost and confused. I feel like the method I used to win (falling off an edge and trying to catch a certain hole) was not the correct way to do it. If it was indeed the correct way, then it was kind of frustrating since it took quite a while to get back up and try again. But that's alright, Cablage drew me in way too much to care.

fwg 2014-08-27 22:47

Hellooooo NaissanceE!

phocker 2014-08-28 02:04

Amazing graphics and atmosphere. I could not figure out what to do but I have added to my play again list.

georgebroussard 2014-08-28 08:33

Liked the audio and mood. The framerate was pretty poor in the main room though. I powered the 1st teleporter but could never figure out the second. Heard a beating heart through a wall and saw a gap in the wall I could never reach. Spent a fair big of time looking for it as I wanted to see it all.

allchimik 2014-08-28 17:09

The solution is a bit difficult. You have to jump over the edge, falling against the wall and run+jump into the hole from the relief on the right.

Excellent job on setting the mood. Graphics are great. Maybe it was too much for 3 days, left the game feeling incomplete. Overall great job

brighterorange 2014-09-03 03:12

I liked this! The architecture is beautiful, the sound unsettling, and there's something to do. I'm not positive I did it the right way, but I beat it, and it was fun to sneak into the second mechanism the way I did, so, yay. It's super painful to play these mouselook games without being able to invert the y-axis though! I wish that were an option!

Also, you can get into the pillars immediately above where you start. There should be an easter egg in there. :)

dans17 2014-09-06 19:46

Very visually impressive! I would like to see a finished version with everything you had originally planned.

h1s2 2014-09-07 15:18

very cool architecutre. i got stuck at the first pulsing sphere. a little bit more gameplay would have been nice.

franklins-ghost 2014-09-14 13:06

Impressive jam entry with one of the best immersive moods I've played this LD, the sounds and visuals worked really well together. Did get a bit lost at times while exploring but enjoyed the architecture of the place.
