Cool game! It was interesting going around trying to figure out what was going on. Small change, the walking sound gets really repetitive after a bit.

adam-konig 2019-10-07 00:00

Windows version wont play because no unity.dll file... help!

dps2004 2019-10-07 00:02

cantplay.PNG When I open it, I get this error message.

cpokered 2019-10-07 00:03

@abacus Yeah, we did not work on many of the sound effects. Thanks for playing though!

@adam-konig How do I add that.

nachtwitch 2019-10-07 00:05

looks really good, but I can't seem to find the windows version

cpokered 2019-10-07 00:07

Just a second on the win version guys

cpokered 2019-10-07 00:08

@nachtwitch @adam-konig I think I fixed it but I am on mac with no way to check.

cpokered 2019-10-07 00:09

@dps2004 I just uploaded win edition

plazmaz 2019-10-07 00:09

As others here have said, it looks like the windows version is broken :/ Crash output:

Application folder: C:/Users/User/Desktop/Game There should be 'Project Name_Data' folder next to the executable

cpokered 2019-10-07 00:13

@plazmaz @nachtwitch @adam-konig @dps2004 I believe it is fixed. Thank you for letting me know.

dps2004 2019-10-07 00:17

@cpokered you need to move the data folder into the game folder. Once you do that, it gives me this error.howto.PNG mon.PNG

dps2004 2019-10-07 00:24

i got it working. I moved the mono folder into the game folder.

davidsheadgames 2019-10-07 00:25

Well... I can speak with honesty that you've made an experience that leaves me trying to make something out of "nothing"

I did find a series of rooms, some of them saying "Nothing", but I don't think I'm smart enough to piece together what I was supposed to do with the clues...

Also, every room I entered had "Nothing" off-center... just enough. I can't tell whether it's intentional or a bug.

There's something evil about the experience.

dps2004 2019-10-07 00:26

Ok, im gonna give an honest review. This needs a seizure warning. I went to the left of "nothing :)", and the room started flashing rapidly. I could not figure out how to exit this room.

cantthinkofname 2019-10-07 04:13

I can't tell if you made it not work on purpose or on accident

antarcticruler 2019-10-07 11:14

Firstly, I played it on Mac so I actually had it work. Secondly, I had the idea of making a game like this, where it was literally just nothing, but you actually did something creative with that idea. At first I thought this was going to be something akin to the Stanley Parable. Biggest issue is that on Mac, the aspect ratio stays at 16:10, so you can't actually see the player character as they go off screen. This makes the game kinda weird and buggy, but if you're able to fix it, you actually have some good potential with this game. Well done!

cpokered 2019-10-07 11:17

Thank you! @antarcticruler Stanley parable was a huge inspiration. We were in a rush and forgot to change aspect ratio. Thanks again!

w0lfenstein 2019-10-07 11:27

It was hard to launch it but I like such games. Nice ~~nothing~~ work ^^

2019-10-07 14:10

It's the best game I loved it check our game also link : https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/45/elementals-war-of-the-nature download and extract it

nachtwitch 2019-10-07 20:49

althoughh I had a lot of trouble, the game was absolutely amazing!

cpokered 2019-10-07 20:50

@nachtwitch Thank you so much. Sorry you had trouble with opening it. Will figure that out by next time :).

cpokered 2019-10-07 21:03

@davidsheadgames *In Narrator Voice* What is even more dissapointing is that you are so close yet so far... *shake head*

dominium11 2019-10-07 21:17

I guess i'm not smart enough to figure out what is the game really about, but if it's just "nothing" then you did a good job guys!

cpokered 2019-10-07 21:20

@dominium11 Thank you! Hope you had fun. The games purpose and meaning will probably be revealed after ludum dare ratings are over in a youtube video.

buoygames 2019-10-07 21:25

Best game i have played so far!

gord10ahmet 2019-10-07 21:29

I couldn't pass the first room. I clicked on everything for several times.

simxple 2019-10-07 21:39

Nice game, oh boy did i freak out when you started speaking, gives the game a great ambiance;D. Great atmosphere but the ste-pnoises were a bit annoying (but that is probably just personal preference)

cpokered 2019-10-07 21:42

@gord10ahmet there is a door on the right side

thepiratenun 2019-10-07 21:48

That's a very interesting game! The whole concept is funny, and the execution of it is great! Nice voice acting too!

4quet 2019-10-07 22:22

I'm curious about the true meaning of this ! The game is an unconventional experience, I liked it :) And you have a cool voice :thumbsup:

cpokered 2019-10-07 22:23

@4quet my team mate is narrator. Thanks for playing!

supergamersgames 2019-10-07 23:12

I'm unsure how to progress due to the player being able to simple walk off screen, though it might just be resolution issues. I won't give any ratings because haven't experienced the game.

cpokered 2019-10-07 23:15

@supergamersgames Im sorry about that. We forgot to make aspect ratio correctly so that stinks. Thanks for trying.

cpokered 2019-10-07 23:25

@supergamersgames I forgot to mention, if you do wish to try it you just have to go to the right.

justicepro 2019-10-07 23:26

It's not working. I tryed to play but I got stuck on the second screen

cpokered 2019-10-07 23:56

It stops to liten to the narrator for a few seconds @justicepro

tygrak 2019-10-08 17:12

Well, I am intrigued, I walked through a lot of screens, tried tapping letters of "Nothing" on the screen with my mouse, with my player character, on the keyboard to make words, got stuck a lot of times in the in between transitions, went through a long corridor and back, tried "taping" everything that looked like a button, seen some nothings, went into the seizure room, tried everything I could think of. But I didn't figure it out. Could you maybe @ me when you reveal the true meaning behind the game? Thanks :).

cpokered 2019-10-08 18:37

Sure @tygrak . Thanks for playing! I think You all will LoVe the true meaning.

karlipoppins 2019-10-09 07:07

Well that was really unique! Love the voice acting, but I had to turn the volume down because the footstep sounds were killing me lol Love the atmosphere, nice little entry!

cpokered 2019-10-09 09:57

Thank you @karlipoppins

glukoosi 2019-10-09 15:49

This gave me spooks. Very unique entry, mood was definitely there.

pl4typus 2019-10-11 19:40

It didn't worked for me, the aspect ratio thing didn't help ... What was I supposed to do ?

dock-frankenstein 2019-10-13 15:16

The walking is slow and not responsive. Nice entry!

cpokered 2019-10-13 23:48

@franciszek-pyrc the walking is meant to be slow. We also made it so you can’t walk diagonally. Thanks for playing.
