I really tryied but I could not understand the controls. But I really liked the concept, could very nice if the controls were easier.
Foon → Ludum Dare Explorer → LD32 → Deminescent

Controls are buggy
Q and A seems to be switched. W doesn't seem to work at all.
Looks like a cool game, I'd love to play it and leave a rating once you've fixed this to make it playable.
Sorry, with all the last hours bugs, I forgot to put the controls back to QWERTY (I'm french so my keyboard is AZERTY). It should be fixed now.
Awesome, I found a glitch where your ray gets stuck to the orb and the controls die. But understanding that almost every one of these games will have some hiccups I really liked it!
@GenericTeamName : When you trigger the red block, if you touch the resulting explosion, you die :) (but due to my GUI issue it's harder to understand). I've added an automatic respawn 3s after death for the jam version until I can solve the GUI issue for a post-jam version.
Very nice idea, has some potential for sure.
i liked the floating gameplay, the game ends quickly but it was nice to experiment
I like the concept and looks. Too bad there's no real levels or puzzles.
Nice concept, the art is great, too bad there's only the tutorial !
Very cool, controls are strange though.
The controls feel good for me. I like the concept, you should really continue working on the game! :)
Pretty good concept! Got potential! I love the control, it was good and fitting for the game!
The floating in mid-air feeling made me dizzy really fast, and I think it's less intuitive than being on the ground and running+jumping. If you want to allow the cube to be walked in on all sides, perhaps you could achieve that by jumping to the wall and then the camera auto-rotating to show you're now on another plane? Just a suggestion.
I do think with the current controls and camera, there will be more than a few players that get dizzy/sick (look up simulation sickness if you haven't experience it :)).
Other than that I'm very curious to see this concept continued, and the game has a really nice aesthetic.
Minesweeper in 3D sounds like you might be on to something!
To clarify, when I play certain first-person-camera games, like Portal for example, it takes about an hour for me to feel nausea/dizziness, and with your game it unfortunately happened much faster.
I think it's impossible to completely avoid simulation sickness when making this kind of game, some people suffer really badly from it and just can't play certain games, but there are design/camera techniques that can really help make it better for most players.
Good luck! :)
I like the graphics of the game as well as the weapon! But I like the players movement most.
This is really cool dude. Nice idea I wish there was more things I could do! I think the most interesting feature is the chain reaction from the red cores I wanted more of these ones to open passages and stuff :)
Thanks for the feedbacks!
@natalye: yeah I tend to forget that some people even have motion sickness since none of my friends experienced that, either in racing games or space battle simulations. I'll look that up.
@Simon: the initial idea was to have enemies coming out of some cubes that you could destroy only with red cores' explosions :) (way too ambitious for a 48h LD...). Maybe with non-destroyable cubes and those explosions something interesting could have been done.
I didn't understand that it is in fact a sort of minesweeper in 3D. The idea is good, but the gameplay seems to me too annoying. I prefer a 2d game minesweeper. But who dares wins. It's a good attempt for this LD32. Thank you ++
