Not sure how it ties to the theme, but excellent mechanic! This could really be made into a killer game. Keep going with it.

Wow, such great shader work. Really appreciate different feelings each of those person's world gave me.
Doesn't fit the theme at all. Maybe just write down some backstory, to set focus for the player.
Where is he, who are those people?

This is really good! I have a hard time connecting it to the theme, but the music/sound and graphics design is really good. Now you need to gamify-it some more so the different minds give you abilities to solve puzzles and traverse the maze/room/world further.. Good potential in here.

Oh my god this is lovely. The mechanic is great! :D

Sadly very slow on my laptop, but I love the idea!

Holy shit I love it

Beautiful work, good concept which could have conceivably been linked to the theme too. Something to definitely develop.

It's great !

Really interesting mechanic. However its not related to the theme at all.

Very interesting concept that could develop into an awesome puzzle game. Great visuals and audio design. I loved how the music changed with the graphics. Definitely turn this into something amazing!

I spent a lot of time wandering around the worlds and just looking at them in silence. It's an absolutely beautiful game and I love the experience. Right now it doesn't seem to tie in to the theme at all - I wasn't harming the humans from what I could tell.

I think there's tons of places where you could go with this. Please, please develop it into a full game with polished graphics and a game UI. Playing this game felt like playing a Myst game for the first time - just discovering the world as I walked through it. It's one of the rarest experiences in games for me, and I can't remember any other LD game where I've felt the same way.

So yes, it doesn't link the theme that much, but it was an absolutely stunning game and a beautiful experience. Please continue with it.

Very interesting effect, shame that's all this was, no real game or objective and wasn't related the theme either :(

I would love to see this developed further however. As others have suggested a puzzle game with objectives to achieve in each possessed person's perspective to solve a larger problem could be awesome.

You are incredibly good at visualizing emotions. I love that.

Minor remark: please capture the mouse cursor, I hate when it wanders out of the game (two monitors).

Interesting concept! I thing I discovered all the minds available. It would be sweet to see some more complexity on the gameplay, maybe some minigame or mechanic tied between minds, or story. Has good potential!

Superb mood and visuals, and audio to that. Very interesting stuff. As a concept game I'd say it is close to perfect. I'm quite envious, wishing I had similar CG skills. Just add a cursor lock to the web-version and more exploration candy. If there was a way to combine this with procedural generation of content, it could become something truly amazing.

really promising.

I think you've got a nice mechanic for some mind bending puzzles here. And it's fun just on its own !

Great job. Very nice mood !

Wow!
