Nice. Although, some goal or ending would be good.

By the way, I fixed my game, it should work for you now. Thanks for the comment.

Gorgeous game, a lovely gem to see something hand painted in a game. Music is wonderfully fitting for the game too. My only criticism is that I think the bombs should influence the character's love more, as at first I found it difficult to see if they had much effect other than scattering the characters. Very well done!

Great job on the graphichs, they look great!

nice art !!!

The background is pretty, but there doesn't really seem to be much strategy other then "drop lots of bombs."

The bombs didn't seem to affect the population's love.
I really like the art!

Whoa
This is such a lovely concept! I love this :)

Really fun game and interesting idea. But the mood of the game is what makes this game special. I like this unique art and delicate ambient.

"(..) too much love will kill them" - now that words to live by :) i like to keep my love level at 50% :D

Nice Graphics and Audio but the gameplay isn't really sucessful.

Strange but beautiful game. Would have really liked to seen more content, but for 48 hours it's brilliant!

Oh gosh that's beautiful and rather moving. Thanks

Art style and music is fantastic!

Nice little game. Great graphics. I only wish it was a little clearer what I was supposed to do. How to affect the population and so forth - still a solid compo effort.

eregaia 2015-04-22 02:22

nice, did u actually paint it or is this a brush?

jk5000 2015-04-23 17:12

I love the art and the music.

lasagnegames 2015-04-23 17:14

Love the graphics, love the mood, and love the bomb!

Best looking entry I've seen so far! Great soundtrack too! I reached "All is love" and stopped bombing, but somehow I reached a tipping point and the love kept spreading and killed a bunch of people.

The background (and the parallax scrolling) made this game for me.

Very pretty game. The graphics were amazing. Music was soft and relaxed, which I liked. It seemed that no matter how many bombs I dropped, it didn't really make them love each other more. But Maybe I was dropping them in the wrong spots. Overall, I really liked the idea of this game!

Very impressive compo entry. Loved the art. I had a hard time figuring out what the goal was, but really enjoyed the mechanic

lucentbeam 2015-04-24 23:45

Interesting game, though I had some trouble really feeling like I could affect the population. Beautiful art. The music gives it all a very eerie vibe.

abcdef65g 2015-04-25 17:06

The art style is simply beautiful, quite a beautiful aesthetic. Your style of painting is very soothing, quite a show of how you can use anything you're good at and deliver yourself for your game. The music also matches and enhances the experience greatly, quite a moving experience even if I don't know exactly why the populace was decreasing, if they were all suiciding out of so much love in the world or if my bombs had also a murdering effect. Surely unusual in every way, unique experience and concept.

jmborden 2015-04-25 17:41

Interesting idea with the artwork, but needs a lot of gameplay work. Doesn't seem to be much of a game here.

sayhiben 2015-04-25 17:53

This is so far my favorite compo entry. Simple game, but the mood and take on the theme cause it to say so much.

Moral of the game: "A little bit of love in the right places can make all the difference."

Alternate moral of the game: "Half the world will have to die before we can experience real love." ;)

ilookedatyourtitsandiminlove 2015-04-27 21:30

Neat little game, nicely done!

garygreen 2015-04-27 21:31

Great art and mood. Very chilled out game. Nice one.

gnx 2015-05-01 22:54

Very nice looking entry :) I think the premise, mechanic and art style play nicely together for an effective experience.

I love the art and the music!
