This game was so well put together! The soundtrack, sfx sounds, art, and I really like the whole giant person world mechanic. Can't wait to see what else you guys throw out.

Best game I play so far Nice graphics and love the sounds. I reach level 7 I was wondering if the game has ending?
@chaitae, thanks for the feedback!
@iballs, currently the game is endless. The world keeps scaling and getting more blue (until actually around level 7 I believe at which point it stays the same blue). We had tossed around some ideas about having the poor custodian rescued at level 10, but it's not in the game.
Slick presentation! I teach game design and I bookmarked this one to show my students. Really nicely done! A+!
It's a great game, i played it on Web so it gets really laggy to play correctly, it's a little bit weird how you complete a level, I got so confused I pressed everything and almost crashed the browser xD I could see the mechanics, enjoy the music and some graphics. great work
@mccarlp, thanks for the kind words, I hope they enjoy it!
@punisherxa, thanks! The game is definitely pushing the limits of WebGL. I've been considering re-working some of it this weekend to optimize it for WebGL (If I do we'll leave the original WebGL submission up as well), but for now the executable is definitely the best experience.
Fun game! Really enjoyed the voxel style, and the lighting was great. Solid soundtrack and sound effects too. I made it to level 8 and died because I got greedy. Great work overall!
@landosystems, thanks for the feedback!
Really liked the art style for this one, and the player nav across each side was a nice touch. I did find it a little odd that you can only heal with enough kindling, but you turn that in at the same spot as where you end the level. Meaning that by the time I did need healing, I had to scrounge up 8 or so pieces. Before then I just figured the growing end was just a signal that you beat the level, unless it was healing me 1/2 a heart or something each time and I didn't notice, heh. Also I wish I read the comments here earlier about if it was endless or not, I got to level 15 or so before I started wondering about it :P. Great job overall!
@cbenoit, I think level 15 is a record, including on the dev team! I definitely agree we need to rethink the healing/end zone a little bit. It was initially going to be a fire that you had to kindle, but we wanted the AoE zone to be very clear. The AoE you see now is what we got in place to show that, and the fire that would burn out (no longer healing) didn't quite make it in! Thanks for playing, and especially thanks for the feedback!
Is it the baddies who run out of space?
Anyways, looks fantastic. Good music too. I like the cube and camera movement.
@echo-team, the "safe space" is the gold sphere that is slowly shrinking. :) Thanks for the feedback!
@phearbot Ah I didn't realize it was shrinking! I only saw it growing.
This was an AMAZING game. The art, music, sounds, movement, and goal were all absolutely amazing. The web one was a bit slow at the beginning of new rounds and at the startup but other than that everything was very smooth and I loved it!
@echo-team, totally. We should have an on-screen indicator to show you it is constantly shrinking, as well as a tutorial that tells you up front.
I love the gameplay and the graphics. The camera was very well done - that's what hooked me to the game right away. Really really great work here.
@comenoha, thanks for the feedback! I really enjoyed working on the camera and making it feel good!
Wow I really like this game, it has a good sound, effects, atmosphere and art. Good job)
Awesome beautiful game! Reminds me Fez a little bit)
Cool game. I think it would be good to be able to make your character turn in place as well.
Feedback:
- Nice graphics - Good idea - Great concept - Sound really good
I love the gameplay and good work. The concept is excellent.
Amazing, favourite game of the jam so far, the mood, the soundtrack, the game feel, even the menu when I went to see the credits, incredible job, I'm definetely going to keep this game and play anytime I feel anxiety or I want to relax.
Nicely done game. Interesting playing area layout, nice graphical style and sound that doesn't bash the eardrums. Great work!
Nice game! I loved the cubic world thingie and I felt that everything fit together. Great work :)
@phearbot Nice game the camera and the controls are really Good. Do you have a little Tutorial on how you made the movement ?
