Dude!!!!! This is so cool. Ya, it's a very simple idea but the idea.... Oh man. It's such a sweet game. I also really like the graphics. The controls are a bit difficult, but it makes up for it with the sweet idea and graphics. Very nicely done.

interesting concept with the shadows

I couldn't jump. Sad cause I loved the art style. Space bar did nothing. Impressive 3D work & on the dinosaur in the time allowed :)

This game had awesome atmosphere, and the Hall of Shadows was so cool!
Good models and lighting as well.

Moving the items about was a little hard, but I managed to make a formation that resembled something at least.

Very nice work in such a short timeframe!

awesome ideia! some hard controls but an awesome game ideia

josho 2015-08-25 23:09

very conusing had no idea how to play

awesomerex 2015-08-26 00:14

Cool Concept! I liked the hall of shadows.

Great idea, I loved the graphics. Sometimes it is a bit hard to control (that is the problem with 3d). A tutorial at the beginning would be nice. Maybe a system of ranking at the end could be a good idea (trying to replicate an image for example)

i liked it! nice idea!

corupta 2015-08-26 01:08

Wow, very original idea, fancy graphics and nice music.

dedhedzed 2015-08-26 15:52

It's SO clever. Maybe a couple of extra instructions would've been nice, as it took me a while at the start to even figure out how to get anywhere, but the idea itself is so original and brilliant.

This is the coolest thing! =D
Creating a game based on community shadow puppets sharing and giving it a "plausible" setup, genius!

At first I thought it was a very bad cover picture on this page. Then I played the game and realized this is the BEST game this LD. Very very very well done. Lot's of stars from me. I hope you win :)

I have never seen a game like this before; it really is a great creative game, and a clever take on the theme. Also, props to whoever Mario was; that Koopa shadow puppet was excellent!

I really liked the low-poly models, and the simple ambient music chords in the BG were a nice touch; it helped fill the silence when getting my shadows turned around right.

I went back and made another for fun. For a post-compo or expanded version, it might be nice to have a rating system that let people tag or score their favorites, or flag the broken or empty entries; there's a fair number of shadows that seemed to be single objects or all defaults, and it'd be nice if the community of boogyfolks had a way to curate and clean up this Shadow Art Museum we're building together!

A really great idea and a great game.

boardtobits 2015-08-28 17:49

Loved the idea, I couldn't get into the dream though. The modeling was well-done and the movement/interaction controls worked well. I just couldn't interact/jump into the dream, so I missed what sounds like the best part.

francismoy 2015-08-29 15:19

Wou! Very original game, de controls are not very comfortable but the idea is cool for creative people.

mahalis 2015-08-31 00:03

Really cool idea! I couldn't come up with much, but I was impressed with what I saw in the gallery, even more so since those were user-created. It'd be interesting if there were a challenge mode where you had to figure out how to fill out a given silhouette.

anvil0008 2015-08-31 07:19

This is super fun to mess with. It took me a while to figure out how to get in the dream, but once I looked around it made sense. And seeing other peoples' stuff at the end was sweet. Great job!

slashee-the-cow 2015-08-31 07:49

Very cool. You're right, the manipulation controls while in the dream are a bit confusing. I just wish it was more of a game, like we had to figure out what the kid was afraid of and then got a rating for how scary the shadow is or something - but I digress. What you've done is awesome for two days' work (and I wish I could do this much in two days).

colinn 2015-08-31 23:38

Gallery at the end was fun

lukbebalduke 2015-09-02 01:42

Very cool idea! But the "hall" did not work for me. Overall, you did a great job!

demy 2015-09-02 18:44

Nice concept but a little bit a lack of a gameplay.

puppetmaster 2015-09-04 21:25

Fantastic idea with hall of shadows, spooky! Very unique and cool entry!

alienart 2015-09-04 21:58

Very nice work.

jwin 2015-09-05 03:32

Very cool idea! I liked the little art gallery at the end!

It was a little hard to figure out what I was doing until I entered the shadow mode, but then I couldn't go grab more toys.

lastleaf 2015-09-05 06:31

Great game! Love the idea.
Personally I love the title art more :)

wuballiance 2015-09-05 18:11

Fun game! I love how you can share your shadows, I created the Unity logo. The object requirement isn't really all that helpful, especially if you just want to design something detailed. I restarted the game a couple of times so I didn't have to include the dinosaur in the shadow. I love this concept, 5/5 for innovation. Very well done, I would love to see more of this! Nice job!

kizler 2015-09-05 20:58

Very very cool concept. :)

dancingmad 2015-09-05 23:34

Good concept !
Maybe one concept of the next Mario paint ;)

seconddimension 2015-09-06 12:10

A lovely idea, very original. It's nice to see a creative game come out of the theme. It would benefit from a little more instruction, and the controls are tricky but it is very interesting.

crucknuk 2015-09-08 14:23

Great entry! Adding a galery at the end is really cool!

fragileannihilator 2015-09-14 23:53

The metagame is even more interesting than the game! Good job!
