Wow the art is beautiful. It seems cool, but I can't figure out how to get very far. So nice looking though!

Hi! I really loved the art and the music of your entry! But it seems to be a game prepared for the theme "Parallel Worlds" and not for the actual theme... Good job though.

I love the art style! Super deformed characters go well with spooky games

Beautiful art. The level switching mechanic is very interesting as well, though a little bit annoying since it's difficult to predict the timing, at least in the windmill. Really like how the story is told without reliance to text as well. Not sure how this fits with running out of power, but a nice experience anyway!

Beautiful art.The music is so pleasant. The level design is interesting and challenging. Looking forward to playing behind the checkpoint and the plot.Given more time, the plot should be better.

Can't figure out how to pass the door in the second map haha Really beautiful game tho.

很精彩的小游戏,通关后意犹未尽,开始期待能有后续了。美工超级棒,小女孩很可爱,这种带点丧的风格我超爱的。感觉可以脑补出一部年度大片,真的是一款很值得玩,玩完还想画同人,给你们疯狂打call!!!!英文不好只能打中文了,见谅。但是真的推荐大家去玩,一定不会后悔的。 My english is not good.A wonderful game.After customs clearance,I want to continue to play it.I like this little girl! ummmmmm,I can't translate it!!!!!In a few words,I love this game.

@sugarbyte Thanks a lot for playing dude. There is a little bit of puzzle in this game. In order to move forward, you could touch the swing, the mailbox and the photo to change the scene. Try it again if you'd like to see what's in the end ;)

leesoar07 2017-08-01 03:56

@aleal-dev Thank you very much dude. You are right, the game seems like a story with parallel world. In fact, the soul of the dying girl went out touching those objects in memory to charge energy for a little while. Using the energy you can switch between dream and reality. However we fail to show it clear here :(

leesoar07 2017-08-01 03:59

@theblondebass To tell the truth, I was scared a lot the first time looking at the girl XD

leesoar07 2017-08-01 05:46

@tinykidtoo Thanks a lot dude. What you say is exactly the truth. There should be a energy bar to show when the scene changes. But the guy who wrote the codes refused to add it. Sorry about that if it annoyed you :>

leesoar07 2017-08-01 05:48

@keda Thank you guy. The game would surely be more polished with more time XD

leesoar07 2017-08-01 05:49

@lun8 Try to touch the mailbox again ;)

leesoar07 2017-08-01 05:50

@sang 抱拳了老铁

I'm not going to rate because I couldn't get past the door with the mailbox, but I think that is in itself a useful comment.

The chasm jumping thing was so difficult that it had me wondering if that was even what I was supposed to do. I was looking for some kind of way to control the changes, but it just seems to be a really difficult jump. Then the door. All I can do is walk and jump. I walked and jumped into, on and around everything I had access to, then did it a few more times for good measure. If that doesn't work...well, next game I guess because I have exhausted all of the strategies that I have control over..

The graphics are quite nice and I really like the transition effect. It looks exactly like my desktop when my old GPU started to die. However, I dislike the music. Quoth Top Gear, it's lessness is not more for me. It's just less.

leesoar07 2017-08-02 09:52

@nintendoeats Thank you dude. You may touch the mailbox again after the scence changes back. That will make sense. Sorry for the bad control and the music.

The mood was amazing, combining the simple sad piano track with the depressing aesthetic of the art and sad story. All those things worked very well together. The game is only a little short, we want more! :)

coauctor 2017-08-02 13:17

Those eyes! :D

The art is really nice. Also, to my taste, it would be better to move slightly faster or with some specific pattern, not just slow.

ursagames 2017-08-02 13:43

Absolutely gorgeous art. The gameplay mechanics were really neat, although getting to the hat was super hard to time. I wasn't quite expecting that ending, even though there was a lot of foreshadowing so I should have. Well done!

ikiste3d 2017-08-02 14:13

I think this game has a lot of potential and the art and music is great. Unfortunatelly I stopped at the windmill because the switching between scenes got really unpredictable and jumping sometimes wouldn't properly work... nice job setting the overall mood though!

ronan13 2017-08-02 19:42

Really nice! Extra beautiful, and also extra hard! I fell somewhere near the beginning, I don't know how, it just looked like I went through the floor. I ended up stuck with the hat stairs. I cannot predict the timing pattern, the pixelly effect is not very nice. It was extra weird as a lover of Fran Bow and since I tested another game up here lost soul, but it was a nice change not to control totally the dimension change. I think the jump is badly adjusted. It tends to get stuck if you try to jump and move. Also getting stuck behind background elements dimension to dimension and waiting for it to change is really frustrating. Still love the aspect and sound! I think I'll give it another try since the atmosphere is cool :)

Very nice entry! The art style, the mood and the audio created a really great experience. Congrats!

delalandii 2017-08-06 13:27

The art style was the first thing that caught my eye, and music fits. The gameplay can be a bit frustrating but once you understand it it's ok. It's hard to see the theme in the game without reading the comments, but very good entry.

bazoo 2017-08-07 12:17

Art is breathtaking. Polishing platforming movement just a little bit could make the game be twice as good and would make it less frustrating, especially the windmill part.

Overall, looks pretty awesome. Congrats.

orcdraco 2017-08-07 17:47

The art and music are really beautiful!!! :) Well done!

bartol44 2017-08-07 21:07

Wow, the style is amazing, it's very unique, and very pleasant to the eye. The idea of switching screens is brilliant. It maybe sometimes unpredictable, but it worked enough for me to solve these little puzles. The mood is great and the ending is touching :D The music however, I assume you aren't doing it for much time. There were mostly single notes, that made it a little less interesting. But then, congratulations on your courage to put it in the game. Very atmospheric entry :)

yetman 2017-08-16 00:05

Spooky and sad. The art was great and it emits a disturbing atmosphere alongside the music. The game mechanics are fun but the timing part was annoying. Although the game mechanics didn't seem to relate to the theme, I feel the story did tie well to the theme. Overall, it was a nice experience.
