I liked the graphics, the way it's played (with the really vertical screen) and the fact the everything is constructed within a single level/screen. But I don't really like the ending, without any control over it and still feels a bit like "short timing, let's end the game quickly". Good work anyway
Amazing ! Huge entry, well done !
Maybe I could use a little bit of help, I didn't understand what to do... I like the art a lot anyway
Good concept, it gives a bit of fear, it's nice to get some emotions with such minimalistic games. To me, it works well !
A really effective game ! Nice and quick to play, congrats :)
Well yes it's a bit small and it could use a bit of instruction to know what to do. I'm not going to give any score because you said it's a failed one, but I'll give you my encouragement to continue it !
Usually I don't really like the sketched styled art but I don't why I liked it here. And the gravitational gameplay took me by surprise and it was nice ! It remains quite hard to me but nice work anyway
I agree on the fact that it don't fits really well in the theme but still a cool game to play, nice work !
Pretty hard to see it as a real game but I loved the levels and the concept that a complete world like in Zelda games could exist on one single screen. As GamingProject said, you should make a new version out of this !
A little bit slow but WOW what a cool entry ! I would have loved to see this game on an island, so you have a defined space to live on and explore. Anyway, kudos to you !
Same as the others, some kind of square or rectangle to see where I'm about to build would be a major addition but still it's a cool game, nice gameplay and I really like the art and the way it's spread all around the game.
It's a really awesome technical demo (pretty amazed by how it's smooth even with a lot of particles) but as it game it looks a bit short. But I had a fun clicking time anyway.
Cool art, and a cute character, but didn't really get the goals and the possibilities :s
WAY too hard for me, I sucks at plateformer :), but still a great entry with a very nice art style that fits well ! At first I was annoyed by the character sounds but it made me laugth in the end and it didn't bother me anymore. A great entry, but not really my kind of game/difficulty :)
I love the concept, being the bug guy defending the small towns. Would be amazing to see this in a real setting, like a small country for example. I missed to see the bullets flying in front of me, at first it's hard to tell if it's a hit or a miss. Good entry with a unique style !
Too bad it's that short because I had a good time, and the gravity mechanic became fun and satisfying on the last level. I saw someone asking about a kind of compass and I dig that, I also would like to see a better camera that would let me see a bit more of where I'm going in a smoother way. Can't wait to see a bigger better version of your game !
I'm not going to be really original with my comments, I like the art (but a bit more in the introduction, it seems different, I don't know if it's real or just me) but the controls made the game harder the it should be.
Too bad it don't seems to fit with the theme for me, but I really enjoyed the combination of a one click/button gameplay with a sport theme. I would LOVE to see it in some kind of full version with multiple sports, better graphics, etc !
I liked the art a lot, especially with the lighting that works well. Controls where cool, but I would have prefered to use the up key to jump even against the walls. My biggest problem with the game is that I didn't understand a thing about the story and the setting until I came back here and saw the text, and it's "sad" because it's a great idea. Cool entry anyway, I had a good time.
For me the biggest problem is the pace, as the other guy said before me it's really slow. Then it was a bit hard to see any strategy or real choices/consequence mechanic. But I'm sure you learned a lot of things with the LD and I'll hope you improve the formula.
Pretty nice game, I like the platformer/maze combo but the camera was a bit hard to follow. Gameplay was sometimes great, with bell balanced jump sometimes frustrating (when you have the roof stopping you from really controlling a jump for example). Definitely a nice entry to could lead to something great if improved !
Great game, with cool arts and awesome sound, good job !
Great game even if I think there is too much resources, which are not linked or makes really sense. Maybe it would have been better with a bit of simplification. But there is still a great result on graphics, music, mood, etc. Congrats !
Pretty solid idea but I had to reads comments here to know what to do, I didn't understand how to eat. So I'll say, good graphics, music, idea, but a bit too short as a game. Good work anyway.
One of the best game I've seen by now, great work, everything is at high level, well well done !
Good game even if it was a bit raw. I agree over the save feature, it would have been a nice little feature.
I absolutely love the concept, the graphics are gorgeous. But I'm not a "manual reader" and didn't have the information I needed in game (did 3 games before knowing how to go down), and then I had a bug some levels down where the character was stuck and get killed without attacking. Maybe I'm dumb but it kept me out of a real interesting time. Anyway, there is some great work here, I just missed it a bit in my experience :)
Same as pierrec, I had some fun but I don't thing I understood anything. Reminds me of rock paper scissor with 4 stuff but with just colors it's confusing to get how each works with one other, maybe objects, elements whatever would have made it simple. It still gets you until the end !
I love those king of games but I had some hard time here. The Gui is too much present, I'd like to see the cool background on it's own. Didn't really understand what I was doing but it was cool to experiment.
Same as above, I like the idea but it's a bit limited. But I know you would have made something bigger with more time. This actually works and it's great, and you have plenty of room to improve the concept !
Fair to say that graphics works well but I had the feeling to see a technical demo. I played until the end but still don't know how to master my score, or to try different combos. In the end, destroying stuff still feels kind of good
Hard is the word yes. Sometimes just a simple error makes you loose the level, but anyway I like the concept, I'd like to see it in a more advanced version.
I really like the graphic style, 2d/3d combo works great. The way you can lose attraction on a planet is a cool mechanic, made the game to me ! I would have liked to be able to see where it could happen though. Easy to pick up also, no long texts or so, it's a good point
Too short but I enjoyed it ! Good graphics and sounds. Glad I had the opportunity to try it before because I knew I had to crawl under the leaf, I think it might be hard to understand at first. I hope you'll make Dusty come back to us, he's cool !
The game itself is as said not challenging, maybe I'm dumb but I didn't understand the compass thing for the first minute, but then it seemed too easy. Maybe hints, or more fun mechanic to guide us would have been great. Great cutscene and humor :)
Nothing happened after the text talking about lights, hope you'll fix it.
Excellent ! I really loved it, at first I was a bit afraid of not doing anything but the story just got me. The twist was great, good humor, not a "game" but I had some good time.
A bit of sound ambiance could have been good but it's to say something

Had too much trouble playing it on an azerty keyboard, but it was cool enough. Reminds me about Kuru Kuru Kururin on GBA which was amazing
The Voice Of Fire by SenorDiablo 2013-05-05T14:14:00
Interesting game, even if hard to play on azerty keyboards. Moving text panels are sometimes frustrating but I still like a lot to see a different game than the others. Well done !
Don't Fart by Galvesmash 2013-05-05T14:10:00
Ahahah, had fun with that ! Not easy at all but the fun theme makes you play again and again :)

Cool game, not usually fond of memory game, but your kept me playing. I love the art style too, simple but really efficient
VierEcken by YsenGrimm 2013-05-05T14:04:00
Really hard but the concept is really great. That could be turned into an amazing puzzle game.

One of the best game I saw yet. Simple on every aspect but great at the same time. Nice elegant graphics, engaging game play, well done !
Illuminion by Qaterknan 2013-05-05T13:56:00
I always like when light is used to make a gameplay, it's simple but smart. The graphics really gives a special mood. Nice use of the theme !
Zmore by mrspeaker 2013-05-05T13:54:00
Very nice game ! No real challenge but it doesn't matter to me. Playing inside of that big canvas and revealing the world is really satisfying and enjoyable, well done.
Mini Maze by Mago 2013-05-05T13:51:00
Great game ! Minimalistic in a good way. I felt like in a dungeon crawler, espacially after level 1. The fact that you only see a bit around you is the good idea !
Unreached City by dx0ne 2013-05-05T13:46:00
Even if unfinished I liked it a lot. While listening to some Kavinsky it fits it's graphical world, it's really pretty and there is a really nice mood. Well done !
Minimalist by Orangejuice724 2013-05-05T13:44:00
You definitely need to give at least an EXE, I don't even know how to play it.
1BtnBounce by Fnkee 2013-05-05T13:42:00
I loved the concept, well linked with the theme. Graphics were simple but well executed. But I might be stupid I haven't really understood how to play this the correct way :)
Trained Disaster by The Tophat Demon 2013-05-05T13:38:00
Lile intripoon said, true minimalistic exprience ! Sadly one of those game that only use a WASD scheme and is hard to play well on a AZERTY keyboard but still fun, congrats on finishing it
The Void by Frib 2013-05-05T13:34:00
Good game, loved that wireframe/shaded switch with googles. The keyboard schemes was not really easy to use though (even more using arrows) but still a cool entry !
