I don't think it can be considered a fail if you actually posted a game, just keep in mind some people give up. There is a lot of time between now and LD25 to brush up on some modeling and to get more comfortable with Unity. :)
After playing the game and reading your postmortem, I think your initial concept was very interesting but didn't fully make it into the final game. Of course, 48 hours is a short amount of time, but I do hope you continue to explore the idea as the atmosphere of the game is very interesting.
Wow, this is such a cool concept. There are still a few kinks to be worked out I think, I walked through the front door into an eternal free fall... Really great idea though, I'll have to check it out on my girlfriends Nexus 7 tomorrow.
The concept is cool, I think if you continue to refine the AI you'll have a nice game. I might tweak the camera controls a little bit too, maybe set a max zoom out. But overall I think the gameplay is fun.
I really liked the idea and the transitions were well done. Sound and like you said a little more polish would of improved your game but overall, well done.
Well done overall, gameplay was a little slow and something a little more challenging would be nice. The laser eyes really increased the enjoyment of the game. Good job!
I laughed at the end... It was a pretty fun game. One critique would be to have something else happen when the animals fall onto a single spaced block and stop moving, but overall I enjoyed it. :)
