Intriguing...
Amazing mood...
Is the "other" person myself?
You have to walk way too much between the levers, and from where the first one is positioned, you can barely see if the circle it controls completes the pattern.
Anyway, nice mood and ambiance... But I have to say that I was kind of thrown out of the state of immersion when the drum track kicked in...
Wow... I was totally immersed into this. (pun intended) Great atmosphere.
Towards the end I stopped collecting the pearls because of the annoying noise they made when you pick them up. (Either that or maybe I wanted to spend more time just swimming around chasing fish).
Also, maybe a very subtle vertex animation shader on the see weed would've contributed more to the environment.
Nice job!
I liked the music a lot, but it was a little difficult to play because you can barely see what's beneath the ice. (I know that's what this is all about, but still...). The controls are really well balanced, but I found the movement of the fish to be a little bit too fast (when they quickly charge in your direction).
Quite nice game overall. Good job! :)
Hah... I couldn't wait to eat the core of the Earth since the moment I've seen it. This was fun. I want a sequel on an alien planet!
Charming little game, from artwork to music.
The tiles are a bit too repetitive and the sprite animation for hopping could have been maybe a little bit more ample, but great game nevertheless!
Loved how clever the level design was.
It's a bit annoying that you cannot skip through the text (especially if you're reading it for the second time).
It's still a great game you have here, I was really sucked in. Good job!
I found it to be almost impossibly difficult. At least right in the beginning I had lots of trouble avoiding the other submarines.
I really love the sound and the mood it creates!
The web page is not loading for me. :(
First time I've tried I only got a black screen. The second time I managed to get to the loading screen but it got stuck a little after 50% was loaded (or maybe it is just loading painfully slow).
I am using Google Chrome 34 on Windows 8.1
Amazing mood, enchanting game world, lovely gameplay.
Awesome graphics and sound which create an amazing mood altogether. Unfortunately I was playing for a while but couldn't find any worm (Or better said, not a single worm has found me). Also the beacons seem to me a little modern/sci-fi, maybe because of the fact that they are emitting light in such a "flashy" way. I find them a little bit immersion breaking.
Awesome game! Clever puzzles and amazing mood. Too bad it was so short :(
This is waaay more fun than it looks at the first sight. Also the graphics are just... right...
In my opinion it would have helped for the game's dynamic to increase the density of the enemies, and maybe make them a little bit easier.
And for some reason, I've kind of liked that the ground texture was shaking.
Really hard to control with your keyboard. Very smooth with a controller, I would wish that I could "platform" (verb) more. :D
This was really fun! I'm digging the art style a lot and the controls are very smooth. Good job!
I wish I could've compared my time with other players (maybe something like a leader-board).
All... these... feels...
Awesome work! Amazing experience.
Really nice graphics... It took me a while to realise what I have to do.
Really nice and well crafted experience.
Portal + Antichamber + An original mechanic. Cool.
Lovely music.
But I have to say, that I don't really like to be insulted as a player, unless it is done in a really humorous way. Your insults were too straight forward.
This was quite disturbing, but weirdly fun.
Oh noo! The big fish of death caught me! That's what I get for swimming in hell. Really fun game!
Hilarious music!
Cute little game! I really loved the art style and got to fall in love with that adorable whale-home-planet. Good job :)
Lovely mood...
I think this is the best entry I've played so far. Amazing work!
It seems that the shaders I've used are not working in integrated Intel GPUs. Sorry for the inconvenience.
I had something planned as an ending, but I did not get the time to implement it, so I had to cut everything short and come up with something else. You are just supposed to jump into the bed of flowers below de cliff ("outside" the level). And you kind of die from doing that...
@cageinabird Ha! Good one! :D
You are right, I barely did unfortunately. and as Thorig said, I kind of omitted to give the game an actual goal.
I think that a survival game with this mechanic could be interesting.
@Jupiter: Thanks for playing and uploading a video of my game.
@Fragsteel: Actually, for the game to end you have to jump off that cliff. And yes, the colliders around the rocks could have been placed better. Same thing can be said about the trigger that ends the game (if you just fall of the cliff, and not jump, you will not trigger it).
Is there any way to avoid the ghosts? I could only find the jump button but that gets me nowhere.
Anyway, I love the graphics and mostly the colour pallet that you have chosen.
This was my first LD too, and while it was an interesting and fun experience, doing music and sound for the first time was really frustrating for me. so I ended up without a main theme song for my game.
Really good entry! Nice job!
I loved the main piano theme. Charming. Also got a zombie jumping on my head while I lost no lives, which made me laugh. :)
This was really fun... Died of exhaustion. Unfortunately it is quite hard to see what happens to the Earth in the background because the game is just... so intense. :)
Mesmerizing little game. Great mood, the music blends nicely with the sound of trees lightning up and the main character is cute.
I didn't like the jump-cuts between each stage.
It was a little annoying in the beginning, because you cannot go through the intro at your own pace (i.e. click next/ hit a button to transition from one screen to the other).
I had quite a bit of fun right after the intro, as I kept avoiding the earth, but then I've realised that it is not killing me so I just ignored it. Also it is a little bit annoying that there are no visual indicators whether you picked one of the little fellas up or not.
Cute little game!
Poor, poor Doug... Is it just me or... ah, never mind, just read the first comment while I am typing this. Yes that is a bit frustrating.
I've seen a gif of your WIP on the homepage or twitter this weekend and it seemed like an interesting game.
Very cute little game. I really had fun playing it.
Maybe a visual indicator for shooting would be a good idea.
This game is killer! Although it is a bit too easy.
It did not. Unless I fail to see some hidden meaning or something. Or maybe the application is still running in the background? "Beneath the surface" of my OS? I'm a bit paranoid now. lol. 5/5 for Innovation.
Of course everything explodes! That was really fun :D
I was hooked! Great artwork!
Windows download link 404s.
That was fun... The controls could be a little more polished and also maybe a map of the entire level would have been helpful.
This was really fun. The hidden "slow mo" dungeon was awesome. Nice work!
This was SO. MUCH. FUN.
It's like asteroids but the enemies are following you! I found it to be quite challenging. The pop-ups at the end (when you die) are a little bit annoying, but I can get over that. It was an overall fun experience.
I've really enjoyed it... Quite a Myst-like experience, as I had no idea what I was doing. I think I found a habitable planet, but I did not know how to teleport on it.
Hi! The webpage you linked to is not working for me. (This webpage is not available - Chrome)
Oh my, I will try to fix the linux zip tomorrow. As well as some really annoying issues the game has at the moment. (Black screen at start and the fact that you cannot interact with NPCs sometimes.)
