Technically he could've given votes to every entry if he played them 3 or so minutes each (including voting process) no toilet breaks, no eating breaks and votes 24/7 up to this point.
I liked the idea and setting, but it lacked some proper point and click style freedom of choice and interesting puzzles.
The game could've benefit more from having a strict tile to tile movement for blocks, as it was easy to get them stuck in a pixel, but the potential for some good puzzling was there.
Still my favorite filter!
It easily dragged out quite a bit when the whole game could be shortened down to be made more frantic. Walking around for several minutes can end up dreadful.
What I liked the most was the absolute removal of both screen and audio at the event horizon, it made it even more scary.
The Mood and setting is great, and I hope you keep it that way for any eventual gameplay improvements :P
The walljumping mechanic drove me nuts, as I had to push against the wall to jump, but that meant air-momentum would be towards that wall again and not away from it, as it wasn't possible to quickly shift to another direction and then jump from the wall.
This must be the weirdest entry of them all!
I felt it could've used more interaction to play out the gameplay a bit more.
The pacing hurt the game quite a bit, as there was something fun there but it dragged out between the fun spots.
Self-destructive sokoban!
I think the main issue with this game is that it takes a full lap until it actually becomes interesting, at which point many players would rather just turn it off.
The plopping and flying of particles as things turn into life is a really nice touch.
Clever puzzling, poor puppies, giving their life for humor!
What I missed in this was some visible stats for what you had picked up, I enjoyed the soft camera movement though, it was soft on the eyes!
Atmosphere at the beginning was great, but I did wish there was something more to it :)
I really liked the idea of using sound this way, the water was not only annoying in the way that you had to find the bridge, but that there was no indication that I would die, some touching of the water should've been allowed, drowning-bar :P
I like the aesthetics going, which really could've been pushed further if the rooms had some unique feel to each one of them.
Also sort of wished the abilities were actual abilities, but it seems like they were there to match the buttons.
What cobhc6 said, just ended after the first puzzle, would've wanted to test some more of it.
While the maze-level gave me headaches and I experienced filler, the voiced dialogue did pull me through all the way to the ending :P
I felt there was something promising and fun there with the puzzle as soon as I figured out (not good at those operations) but I couldn't see any clear goal in sight or indication as to how far I was progressing or losing, also, lack of in-game instructions.
The art, sound and gameplay are all relatively simple, but what really brings it up is the fantastic presentation in terms of visual post-processing and filtering on the sound, lovely!
It was a perceptual experience!
you forgot the dots under the three I's
Enjoyed it, the controls really worked for the kind of avoidance game it was, more variations by having different levels would've helped a bit more though.

I liked it, but I felt the colours weren't working hard enough to distinguish themselves from eachother, some white blocks killed you, others just slowed you down, orange blocks are good, but the slightly darker orange blocks I thought were just the same ones at first!

I enjoyed this in the weirdest way possible! D:
