The best game I played so far.
Wonderfull narrative and graphic is amazing.
Great work.
I would like to see a whole game.

Awesome graphics and use of the theme! This is beautiful! I really like how the game is really just a show we're watching. I don't know how to deal with enemies from behind, though, I died.

@panda
Thanks for the feedback :)
To slay enemies behind you, just flip Kira with (Y) (XBox-Controller) or [W] (keyboard)

The controls were a bit difficult to master, but the graphics/art direction and the music/voiceover is really impressive! I absolutely love the direction you took the game (and the fact you took the time to give it controller support too), great job!

I really liked this game. The concept fits the theme in an original way, and the narration, sounds and graphics create an excellent mood. Just to say something, I felt the controls a bit weird (the w rotation part), but at the same time those controls helped to make me feel im controlling a puppet. Good job !

Cool graphics and music! And also really unique concept! GJ!

sushidestroy 2014-12-09 12:04

A very complete game

dieblume86 2014-12-09 12:05

I really like the graphic style.

hypnoticbytes 2014-12-09 12:08

My favorite so far! Really like the concept, so unique! Great work!

Awesome concept and presentation. One of the best voiceovers in any jam entry ever. Not sure about combat balance. Having the spitting thing appear from behind with two enemies in front sucked balls. Could work better if you'd allow player to move while blocking. Also jumping. Jumping would be good.

Battle is clunky, but cannot fault the style you went for. It is awesome to look at. I just wish controls were a litter tighter cause I love the mood.

wow awesome art-style and atmosphere!! Good job guuuys!!

techblogogy 2014-12-09 20:38

Amazing art. Great job!

nitrodeus 2014-12-09 20:47

This is really impressive for Ludum Dare, especially the graphics/soundtrack and the atmosphere.
Really great job !

Amazing game. Love it :3

hippolyta 2014-12-10 02:23

Great graphics, voiceover and sfx - looks very polished!

Very well done!

kaijuu 2014-12-10 11:55

Cool concept! There is little bit hard controls
Graphics and audio are really awesome

aniscool9 2014-12-10 16:36

I see you used limbo style artwork. pretty cool!

peterthehe 2014-12-10 16:39

Excellent graphics :)

kepamun 2014-12-10 16:44

Great unique style. Well done!

I'm so used to the avatar facing the direction of movement that the flip control was too hard for me, and I didn't finish.

Delightful concept, thanks.

The timings and mechanics were a bit of a challenge to get just right but it was a very interesting and beautiful game.

That title screen confused me a bit because it said "made with love (and unity)" so my brain initially thought "how did they mix the Lua LÖVE framework with Unity?!" xD

mathmadlen 2014-12-11 00:10

The art is gorgeous! The narrative and music tied it all nicely together. Fighting wasn't my favourite part of this game though... But maybe just because I died a lot..?

caspila 2014-12-11 10:54

The art style is very interesting, I liked it a lot. This could be an awesome brawler game with some more polishing on the game mechanics, better and smarter enemies. I don't know about the theme, though, entire game on one screen?

xlash86 2014-12-11 12:39

@Caspila It's all on one screen in a shadow theater. The movement of all the elements on the screen would need some polishing, so that it would actually look like guys moving the elements.

Really liked the paper puppet show style and home made sound effects/narration. Gave it a very unique feel. Well done.

ruerob 2014-12-11 20:12

great art style and voiceover. but the fighting controlls are a bit hard. And it confuses me to get hurt by dieing enemys. Nice game. Thank you.

pulsartronic 2014-12-11 21:46

Cool one ... i think the theme was not entirely respected but i had fun playing it a while :) ... good job my friend

zkenshin 2014-12-12 19:57

Pretty neat combat system and nice visuals. Well done.

teesquared 2014-12-13 19:11

The puppet was very original. The visuals and the mood was great! Fighting was hard though.

foolmoron 2014-12-13 22:18

Super unique! You totally nailed the puppet style. Voice over was great. Controls were a bit wonky and difficult though
